Unique twins Project
"One set of twins. Two unique people."
What makes twins unique? Parents of identical twins, same sex twins and sometimes even boy/girl twins may be used to the question "how do you tell the difference between them?" Or "which one are you?
From the moment of conception they have their twin relationship, sharing each other’s space, sharing their birthday, their parents and home.
I want to bust the myth that twins are identical, even for the identical ones!
I have created this project of some of the many sets of twins I have met and photographed, giving us a small glance into their worlds.
UNIQUE TWINS ON DISPLAY
Part of the unique twins project has been exhibited in Ruislip twice, and also published in the Twins Trust national magazine 'Multiple Matters'.
If you have unique twins and would like to know more about participating and letting me tell your story, let's chat!
TWIN FAMILY PORTFOLIO
As a mum of twins I know all about the special challenges that parenting twins can bring, and I have photographed lots of them! Take a look at my twins portfolio for more.
In partnership with the Twins Trust I also offer a special twins discount - just quote your membership number when booking.

Bluebells in Bloom (Again!) Yes I know I`ve been talking about them for a while! But even though the bluebells came extra early this year they are still making a magical sight in nearby woods. I did some early mini-sessions 2 weeks ago, but they are just holding on for this weekend`s adventures too.
(I have one early afternoon mini-session left on Saturday 3rd for one last minute booking - message me if you`re interested).
These gorgeous native flowers are protected as they are easily damaged. So how do I get these photos then? The family is sat on a blanket (no wet bums) on the path between two areas of bluebells, I`m on the next path getting a nice low angle to show off the flowers - and hide the path!

We had a bit of a nature adventure in our garden yesterday! We had a visit from a swarm of about 10,000 friendly honey bees. After they had buzzed around and checked out our front garden they all landed in a big ball of bee on our garden wall. I was rather worried that they might want to setup home inside the hollow brick pillar of the wall, so I called Pinner & Ruislip Beekeepers` Association who were here in a flash keen to adopt the whole 10,000 bees. They were all carefully swept into a special bee box and transported to a luxury new hive over in Denham. Thank you Pinner & Ruislip Beekeepers` Association and enjoy your bees!

And finally - my very favourite campsite for family adventures! Hollands Wood – Camping in the Heart of the New Forest
If you’re after a real forest camping experience, Hollands Wood is the perfect spot. Tucked among the trees in the New Forest, this campsite feels like a proper outdoor adventure, while still being close to plenty of attractions.
CAMPSITE
Set right in the forest—just pick a spot under the trees for some shade (or shelter from the rain!).
Charcoal BBQs are allowed (as long as they’re off the ground), but no wood fires.
Surrounded by woodland and walking trails—perfect for exploring.
Wild ponies wander through regularly! Super cute, but keep your food secured.
FACILITIES
A small office selling ice lollies and renting out freezer blocks.
Three toilet blocks with showers.
Dog-friendly, so your pup is welcome!
NEARBY ATTRACTIONS
A wide shallow river with pebbly beach just 5 minutes walk away—perfect for paddling.
Brockenhurst town is a 20-minute walk (or 5 minutes by car) with supermarkets, ice cream shops, and tourist spots.
Ornamental Drive—a beautiful scenic route through the forest.
Reptile Centre—see native reptiles up close.
Wildlife & children’s farm—great for kids!
If you love forest vibes, ponies, and easy access to nature, this is the place to be!

My second favorite campsite for family camping?
Hill End in Gower, South Wales!
This place is a gem—four big fields tucked between the sand dunes and rolling hills of the Gower Peninsula. But the real highlight? The location. Just a five-minute walk through the dunes, and you’re on one of the best surfing beaches in Wales!
CAMPSITE
Four connected fields, including a ‘quiet’ field just for families
Wood fires are allowed (as long as they’re off the ground)
Sand dunes to explore, a little stream for kids to fish in, and of course—the beach!
FACILITIES
A café and bar for easy eats and drinks
A small shop with essentials—basic groceries, cold beers, freezer block hire, and beach gear
One big toilet block with hot showers (plus outdoor showers for rinsing off wetsuits)
A football area and a huge children’s playground
No dogs allowed (so keep that in mind!)
NEARBY ATTRACTIONS
The beach is right there—just a short walk through the dunes
More beaches within walking distance
Surf schools often run lessons right on the beach
It’s the perfect spot for a laid-back, beachy family camping trip!

Camping – you either love it or hate it! It is the ultimate long stay outdoor adventure. And our family love it! Are you a camping fan, and have you managed to get the family involved?
I`d like to share with you my top 3 of the best campsites for kids, so they get the camping bug too!
Camping is a great way to make the accommodation part of the adventures, see new places, let the kids roam around in nature, and holiday with friends. And once you’ve got the kit, it’s cheap too.
Number 3 is.. WoWo in Sussex
This one makes the top 3 best campsites for kids because of the huge fire pits, and the potential for exploring!
CAMPING
The campsite has 5 interconnected fields separated by strips of woods and streams, which are great for the kids to explore.
Rope swings adorn the trees and the rivers are made for paddling.
Every pitch has its own open fire pits with benches, and logs are available from the log truck or camp shop.
FACILITIES
A variety of food vans visit daily if you don’t want to cook, and a small shop offers essentials and snacks.
The campers barn has chilling sofas, fridges and freezers to cool freezer blocks, and a laundry room.
Hot showers and lots of small toilet blocks scattered around.
Dog friendly
Glamping options are also available – check out their yurts, bell tents, shepherds huts and geodomes.

Spring photos are not all about the bluebells! There is so much going on in spring - daffodils, crocus, cherry blossom, and every kind of plant at every park springing in to life. It all makes me want to go outside and play!

How to not squash the bluebells - and still get gorgeous photos?
Bluebells are many but they are tiny, low down, and delicate. So how do we get close to them to get great family pictures while not destroying the beauty we came to admire?
Bluebells are so delicate that wherever people have walked you will see paths through the bluebells, and if people continue to walk on them they will die and never come back. So we need to stick to the paths that already exist, standing only where we can see bare earth and a clear path.
It’s all about the angle to emphasise what we want to see! Shooting low, through the bluebells, from a distance with a longer lens, hides the mud and shows the beauty!

What would we have time to do in a mere 20 minutes of photography? Well we had time to nestle among a sea of vibrant bluebells during our bluebell woodland exploration.
Spring mini sessions are coming soon! Link in bio to join the early bird list to get the latest news.
