HI, I'm Emma...

...and I love photos!

 

Growing up, my parents took LOTS of photos and my family photo albums have always been something I've treasured. We didn't have a single professional family photo shoot when I was growing up, so in my family albums, every single beautiful photo was taken in a candid moment by one of us.

 

So much about our family photos are perfect, the random candid moments (even ones where our eyes are closed, thanks film photography) are so full of life and heart. But one thing that's missing is that photo of all of us together.

 

My love of casual, candid family photography has been formed by these moments captured by my own family. I treasure them so much more now that both of my parents have passed away, and my greatest hope for everyone is that they have special photos with their families to treasure the same way I do.

Yep, That's Me...

You're probably wondering if you'll click with the person taking your photos. Or if you'll feel even MORE awkward being photographed because they're a total stranger. So here's me at a glance, we might have something in common!

 

I'm a childfree millennial with 3 dogs that could easily become 5, 6 or 7 dogs if I was left unsupervised.

 

I'm right at home with people who are also *deeply* dog obsessed. If you hate being interrupted by someone pointing out the cute dog across the road, I might not be for you.

 

My office is full of bright colours and eclectic quirky art. The rest of my house is totally dark and moody vintage vibes. Anything but beige for this girl.

 

I love going out with friends and yapping over dinner. I go hard at a dress up party. I'll say yes to almost any fun adventurous activity. I also love being home in my comfy clothes on the couch watching bad reality tv, thrillers or the Office for the 200th time.

 

I always want to see the dessert menu.

 

Gardening and growing flowers is my latest obsession and I've been humbled many times over but somehow still want to get up in the morning and check my garden before anything else!

 

Either true crime/scary story podcasts or 90's/2000's music are in my ears most of the time unless I'm obsessing over Noah Kahan's new album yet again and can't play anything else.

 

I don't drink much but I will always say yes to a margarita.

 

My favourite feeling is laughing until my stomach hurts and I can't breathe.

 

My toxic trait is thinking that all animals will instinctively feel my loving vibes, so I will try to pat any cute animal that will get close enough to me. Sometimes I'm right, sometimes I get spat on by a llama.
