My APPROACH

I see family films as little time-travel spells. They are tender, moving portraits of the life you're living right now, preserved forever in soft motion and sound.

They capture more than smiles; they hold the rustle of a dress, the way small hands reach for yours, the hush of a sleepy afternoon. All the magic that photos sometimes miss.

These films are heirlooms for your future self, and treasures for the little ones who’ll one day grow tall. A time capsule of love, light, and laughter beautifully bottled up in the most ordinary of days.

I work gently, like a quiet guest in your world - never intrusive, always attentive. There’s no posing, no fuss. Just the honest beauty of your life, exactly as it is, which is no doubt full of warmth, wonder, and the wild poetry of everyday moments.

Capturing feelings

My JOURNEY

I’ve always been drawn to the magic of storytelling, to the way a photograph can freeze a moment, or a film can make time stand still. But, it wasn’t until I became a mother in 2019 that I truly felt the weight and wonder of it all.

In those early days with my daughter, time felt both slow and fleeting. I found myself capturing everything - tiny yawns, sleepy feeds, first smiles until my phone overflowed with hundreds of videos and photos. But even then, something felt missing. These moments were precious, yet they were scattered and buried in folders on my phone. I didn’t want them to simply sit there. I wanted them to live.

So I began filming with more intention - not just capturing faces, but feelings. The sound of her laughter echoing through the kitchen. The quiet glow of afternoon light on her cheeks. Our little adventures and everyday rhythms, woven together like a patchwork quilt of memories.

And somewhere in all of that, I found my calling and my passion.

Now, I offer that same gift to other families. A chance to be in the frame, to see yourselves as you truly are: connected, loving, beautifully imperfect. These films are honest, natural, and filled with the quiet kind of magic that only family brings.

Gathered memories

My INSPIRATION

Becoming a mother changed everything. It opened up a whole new way of seeing as if life had slowed just enough for me to notice the smallest, most extraordinary things.

I felt an urge to gather it all, the quiet moments, the wild ones, the tiny everyday wonders and weave them into a living memory for my daughter. A gift she could hold long after these days have passed. She is, and always will be, my inspiration.

That’s how film found me, or perhaps how I found film. It became the thread that tied our memories together, gently and truthfully. And soon, I realised how many other families longed for the same: a way to honour their story, to step into the frame, and to be seen in all their real, messy, beautiful love.

Each session feels like a soft unfolding. No two stories are ever the same. It’s emotional, joyful, sometimes tearful, always meaningful. To witness those moments and shape them into something lasting... it's a privilege I never take lightly.

This work is more than a job. It’s a quiet joy, a catharsis, and a calling and I’m so honoured to share it with you.
