Let me introduce myself
Hey! I'm Emily, a photographer and tutor based in a sleepy seaside town near Margate, Kent. Creativity has always been part of who I am — from colouring and crafting as a kid to selling origami frogs in the playground (my first business venture!)
Education
Photography first caught my eye during my exam years and never let go. I studied at the University for the Creative Arts and Kingston University, where I earned a BA (hons) in Photography. Those years gave me space to explore, experiment, and turn my passion into a profession
Building the dream...
After graduating, I poured my energy into two passions — photography and education. I now run two photography businesses, wedding photography as well as The Darkroom at Beach Creative, a space for learning and community. Born from my love of analogue photography!
With 10 years of industry experience, I love capturing genuine emotion and the quiet beauty that makes each story unique and true to you.
My approach
I work 99% candidly (though there’s always time for group and couples shots).
For me, photography isn’t about stiff poses, it’s about connection, emotion, and the beauty of real life.
I blend quietly into the background, letting you be yourself while I capture the laughter, the glances, and the in-between moments that tell your story.
When needed, I'm happy to give you gentle prompts so you can ease into the moment and make best use of the light. My goal is simple: to create honest, timeless images that feel as real as the moment itself.

At this point, photography is my world — but when I’m not behind the lens, you’ll find me outdoors either camping, hiking, sea swimming, running, I love it all! Curious to see the world through my eyes? Explore my portfolio and take a look at some of my favourite stories I’ve captured
