Hi you!
I’m Harriet, a portrait photographer based in and around South East London and Kent who captures moments that turn into memories.
I take relaxed, natural and authentic photos of laid back and loved up families, newborns, mums & dads to be and couples, who want to create lasting memories, full of love and laughter. Whilst I effortlessly capture the photos you want. Photographing all the smiles, giggles, special moments and sometimes silly faces as they happen for you to cherish by capturing those moments that all too soon become memories.
I work on location, so I will travel to you whether that be a local park or your home. Don't worry too much if you don't know where you want your to shoot to be, I will help you pick some great locations near or local to you/us or further afield if you are happy to travel.
My photographic journey began when I moved to live in Africa in 2007. Here I was given my first ever camera, it was my pride and joy! This initial passion soon died down when I came home to start secondary school after living abroad for 18 months (Notably due to the lack of amazing African wildlife, but also where school work and homework soon became GCSE's and revision). It wasn't until I applied to go to sixth form and took photography as a subject, that I realised this is where my heart lies. I have since then, completed my degree, studying a Bachelor of Arts Honours Degree in Photography. Graduating with a First Class Honours in 2018. Soon after graduating I launched this website and well here we are!
I pride myself on my eye for details, my professionalism, whilst being calm, trusting and having an abundance of patience. Aiming to always provide you with the best photos I can take.
Now I’ve covered some of the formal stuff here is a few random facts about me:
I love chocolate (but only bars, I find chocolate flavourings too sickly most of the time - weird I know)
City born but country lover (and general lover of being outside especially on a country walk, except when its raining, typical girl who loves her hair too much)
I take my tea (builders) milk & 2 sweeteners ( Don’t do coffee at all, I’m convinced its a genetic issue I have)
Sweet over savoury
Bit of a science geek (favourite subject at school)
Eco conscious - I care about global warming/climate change/plastic pollution etc
I’m known to have 15/20 bobby pins in my hair at one time…
Lover of G&T’s and frozen strawberry daiquiri’s
My favourite films are Mamma Mia and Greatest Showman (Yes I’m that annoying person who sings all the way through!)
If music is playing it is highly likely I will be singing / dancing along…bit of a country fan (Luke Combs all the way!)
Obsessed with dachshunds! I’m desperate to own one……one day!
LJ Ross (author) fan!
