Hi, I’m Ruth - the photographer for people who hate having their photo taken!


I believe the best images happen in the gaps between the poses. Whether you’re a CEO needing to look approachable or a parent trying to wrangle a toddler, my goal is the same: to make the camera disappear so the real you can show up.


With a background in both the health service and animal husbandry, I’ve learned that great photography is 10% settings and 90% psychology. I don't just "take photos" — I hold the space so you can feel relaxed, confident, and entirely yourself.


When I’m not behind the lens either in Preston or out in the Lancashire and Lake District countryside, you’ll usually find me with my dogs in the hills of the Lake District - trying to bag all 214 Wainwright Tops!, volunteering and working with the alpacas and llamas, or chasing my own family around. I bring that same down-to-earth energy to every shoot.

  • For Businesses: I’m your strategic partner, helping you build a visual brand that feels as professional as it does personal.

  • For Families: I’m your memory-catcher, turning chaotic, beautiful real-life moments into art for your walls.

p.s. I also have a slight obsession with alpacas and llamas as you may see on my site! Don’t worry, I also take photographs of lots of other things too!!
