Why me as your photographer?
Finding the right photographer can be tricky which is why connection and trust is important and I'm sure you'll find that with me we'll get along brilliantly. Every shoot is unique and I work closely with you to ensure we create images that you treasure.
To this day, nothing gives me more satisfaction than seeing clients' faces when they view their pictures, whether that be a family shoot in their home or garden, in a favourite location setting, a beach, a large formal wedding or a candid moment caught when least expected at a wedding or a social do.
Please browse the site, I truly hope that my passion & desire shine through and you choose to want to work with me. Contact me here.
Would I be right for you?
It may sound crazy but I am not going to say I am everyone's photographer - for me it's about having a connection and you being happy and relaxed when I am shooting you. If I have your trust and confidence in my abilities we can create something rather special!
So why would you choose me over all the other photographers out there? - the quick answer? its.........
The main reason is that you want a friendly, relaxed, skilled, thoughtful, passionate, hardworking, adaptable on the day, female photographer and that some of the things I have put here combined with seeing my work have clicked with you and make you want to find out more about what we could create together! If that's you then I look forward to speaking to you very soon!!
Take care

Meet two of our munchkins!! I have come to photography later on in my career and I was able to when I became a mum to our three children. It's been fourteen years now (the last eight have been full-time). I am very lucky to say I love my work!
I am a professional, trained, full-time photographer, fully insured and I pride myself on my capture of light. Natural light is my passion however faced with some of our weather conditions I will use flash when required. To quote one of my clients 'Tracy has the technical ability to make a storm look like a lovely day!' I have backup equipment (and backup of the backup!) and I also have a circle of colleagues who I trust to stand in for me if I am ill (It's only happened once in 19 years! but good to have a backup).
I am very passionate - every image is special and I will go to extremes at times to get the images! - lots of my clients remember me for being on a ladder!!!.
Now you can see me your side of the camera!! - This was a special shoot with my daughter.
My aim is to capture in camera rather than doing lots of extra photoshop work in my post-processing, so I have trained hard to know the right angles to shoot from, use of light source and the flattering poses that will show my clients off to their best. That said post processing of the images does take time and I check each one individually to make sure it is at its best before I sneak-peek or show the final set of images to clients.
I also invest time in pre-meets for weddings and pre-conversations for shoots so that I am familiar with family members/or who I am shooting and can get the best from them on shoot day!
It's not just turn up on the day and shoot for X minutes - my work starts well before the shoot and ends after much attention to detail of the final images, a viewing, client selection of their images and then making sure the final product that they choose is perfect!
