Dens, Dancing and Tickle Fights |Outdoor Family Photography | Life Lived Photography

So, I found out about a new place for walks! When E and her family contacted me for photos and we started planning, I found out about Bourne Woods, which is where they go for walks as a family a lot, and that has special meaning for them. Excited to discover somewhere new, we set

Another fun and exciting family session outdoors at the Arboretum in Lincoln (if you haven’t been yet, go! It is a hidden gem in the city, trust me). I had the pleasure of photographing three generations together during this session, with Nan, Mum and the children all together exploring the park. There were ducks to

A Wedding in the Sun…and a Dog in a Tuxedo

Yes you read that title correctly! There was indeed a dog in a tuxedo, and you know what? He total stole the show! After the Bride and Groom obviously! I don’t do weddings very often. I don’t consider myself to be a wedding photographer, but I do photograph life and sometimes, my clients ask me

Smiles and Cuddles

I have another wonderful family session to share with you today! These amazing people have never had family photographs taken before so it was a new experience for all of them, but I can truly say they handled it like pros! Not only did they wait patiently for the bluebells to come out of hiding,

Music is Magic

On Friday I had the honour of photographing Anna from Caterpillar Music Newark as she held one of her music sessions at the Southwell Court Care Home.

Close Enough to Kiss

After a week of rain, the day dawned chilly….and sunny! Hooray! I was very happy indeed when I saw the sun come out from behind those clouds, because that meant that I wouldn’t have to cancel my session with these two lovely ladies, and, well, it was a nice day for a walk through a
