About

At sixteen I was diagnosed with ME and the drastic changes the illness made to both my life and my capabilities has massively impacted the kind of person I have become today. Four years later, I am determined, driven and stubborn – I also appreciate every bit of happiness that comes my way to the fullest. I live my life in a small flat located at the tippity-top of an old, sandstone Victorian building. It’s here with my partner Stuart and my pets that the story of my life unfurls, documented in detail through photography and words.

Hopelessly creative, I tried my hands at many mediums throughout my teens in an attempt to find the outlet that could become my home and livelihood. I fell into writing by accident when it became the way in which I could best express myself and over time I fell in love with creating words that evoke thoughts and feelings in others.

Photography has always been a love of mine and I’ve pursued it since I was a child. I like catching moments in life that would usually be forgotten and storing them away as visual recollections. My favourite things to photograph: my family in the most candid situations possible, people and the rawness of their emotions and every day nothings that will one day turn into precious memories.

Here, I will combine my many loves - fashion, photography, writing and life – to create an ever evolving tumble of thoughts, inspirations and recollections.
