I take a limited number of sessions each month to ensure every client receives my full attention and thorough editing. This means popular dates — particularly Saturday afternoons in spring and summer — book up several months in advance.
The best way to check availability for a specific date is to use the booking enquiry form below. I typically respond within 24 hours and can confirm your date with a deposit to hold it.
If you have flexibility on timing, I can suggest the available dates and times nearest to your preference. Midweek and morning sessions often have greater availability and can sometimes be booked at shorter notice.
Weddings: 6–18 months in advance. Family & portrait sessions: 2–8 weeks for weekdays, 2–4 months for peak weekend times. Newborn: book during pregnancy, session confirmed after birth.
A non-refundable booking deposit (typically £100–£150 depending on session type) holds your date exclusively. Until a deposit is paid, the date remains available to other clients.
I have more flexibility for weekday sessions and can often accommodate bookings with shorter notice. Weekday sessions also allow more relaxed scheduling around preferred lighting times.
Spring (April–June) and early autumn (September–October) are the most popular times. Winter sessions have greater availability and have their own beautiful quality of light.
Sessions can be rescheduled once with at least 48 hours' notice at no extra cost. Rescheduling due to weather is straightforward — I always have a backup plan or alternative date available.
Occasionally I have last-minute availability due to cancellations. Follow me on Instagram where I announce last-minute slots, or sign up to my newsletter for priority notifications.
