Family Photography Near You
I belive in creating relaxed natural images with a story to tell. Laughter lines, fierce hugs, muddy knees, tiny sandy toes. I'm all about the details that make your family unique. My goal is to capture the magic of your family's connection, images you'll truly treasure forever.

HERE'S WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT
Let’s face it, no one enjoys having their photo taken, but don’t worry, I love meeting new people and I adore working with kids. I've been told time and time again that I put people at ease on their shoots (see reviews) so you’re in good hands. Booking me as your family photographer gives you the confidence to sit back and let me take the reins. All you have to do is spend an hour or two with your family while I gently guide you into natural positions or suggest games to play that the kids will love.

BEHIND THE LENS
ABOUT me
MUM OF TWO, AT HOME BY THE SEA, LOVER OF NATURE, YOGA AND SUNNY FESTIVAL VIBES.
With a degree in photography and 18 year’s experience styling and producing fashion shoots I’ve always loved creating beautiful images. I’m lucky enough to have travelled the world styling for some of the UK’s best-selling magazines. But with two young daughters I'm happy to be more of a home bird for now, so when I had my second daughter I decided to dust off my camera and start photographing my family in an authentic modern style. I moved onto friends and slowly and organically Violet & Valentine Photography was born.
MY JOURNEY AS A PHOTOGRAPHER
constantly seeking new ways to showcase authentic laughter, love and connection
My journey as a family photographer based in Sussex began with a deep love for capturing moments of connection and emotion. I am drawn to the power of photography in telling stories and preserving memories. My passion for capturing moments of motherhood became undeniable when I became a mother myself. I embarked on a path of learning and honing my skills, constantly seeking new ways to showcase authentic love, laughter, and connection within a family. Through years of practice and countless photoshoots, I have developed a child-led approach that allows for genuine emotions and natural interactions to shine through. It brings me immense joy to create timeless images that tell the unique story of each family and their journey through motherhood. This is how it all began, and I am grateful every day to be able to capture the magic of motherhood and family life through my photography.
