A few things about me:

My favourite relaxing passtime is knitting. In times past it used to be running (alas, not much since giving birth to my delightful daughter - one day I'll run a marathon again).

When I first came to Basel I bought with me only some clothes, 2 pairs of shoes, a shuttle computer (very small desktop PC, no monitor) and my cello in order to live a more simple life. It worked... for a while.

I am the eldest of three, my two other siblings being brothers, Dan and Tom.

I grew up in small southern villages in the UK.

I really wish there was a real fish and chip shop here in Basel. Just one. (Nordsee doesn't count!)

In the right mood my eyes can change colour and become flurescent green.

I love taking pictures.

This was a very special shoot. My very good friend from University recently had a baby, she was kind enough to let me stay at her place in London whilst I was attending the SWPP London Convention earlier in Jan. She wasn’t there because she had moved up North (near to where we studied together) and was preparing to have her little baby boy. It was a pleasure taking these pictures for you as a thank you. I’m just sorry it’s taken me so long to get them up for you – I bet the little babe is just so much bigger than this now. I hope we don’t leave it as long to see each other again.

Thanks so much P for always being such a wonderful, true and unconditional friend. I love you lots and lots. xxx

Here are your beautiful boys:

This little girl was just happy to stay inside her mummy’s belly, 11 days after her due date she arrived and I got the greatest job of showcasing this new little beauty to the world. I turn my Premium Birth Announcements round the same day I took the pictures, so these are fresh from this morning and now their family have a beautiful private slideshow to share with friends and family welcoming their little girl into the world.

It was a pleasure. Enjoy her!

It was probably just gas, but we got a great smile too:

Being assigned the task of recording a family together is actually a pretty great job. It’s great to go back to family homes and set up by gear again, but with slightly older children and in this case a brand new addition. We had a great time and I even got quite a bit of artistic direction from big sister!

Here is the happy family:
