Family diorama for Andrew
These deep box frames have been a great way to create these family dioramas – adding a bit of background/ depths to family portraits – this one was for Andrew’s birthday from his family 🙂
Todd’s cycling family
Another lovely brief all the way from Melbourne this time! This was a present from Nina to her husband Todd on his 40th birthday from which was just a couple of days ago!! The family loves nothing more than an outing on their bikes in […]
Family portrait – spring all the way!
Meet the Peaconns! There’s outdoorsy and then there’s the great outdoors. One ounce of sunshine and this lovely lot can be found enjoying every drop of park gorgeousness. Not a sore sight either!
Sue and Martin’s family tree
Another tree commission for a 50th wedding anniversary – a lovely tree for Sue and Martin!
Family diorama
I’ve been a little obsessed with dioramas since I first discovered their official existence through the ever mind-boggling creative geyser that a good old Pinterest session can bring. What is it? It’s basically a 3D ish picture in a box. I’ve been meaning to […]
Chris’s family tree
Now the nice thing here, is that this is the counterpart of Nicki’s family tree that I posted earlier. The first tree was for Nicki’s family, and this one is for Chris’s family, her other half! Chris’s parents are keen gardeners, and his dad is […]
Lameya’s father’s day family portrait

Charlotte and Ansell’s gorgeous brood – family portrait
Some things can be a long time in the making, but they are still worth waiting for! I have been plotting this special family portrait with mum Charlotte for a few months now, but we are both very pleased with the results, a colourful, vibrant […]
Lucy and John – family portrait
Another commission, this time for this very lovely family – loved the outfit and the doc mcstuffins! And here are the happy recipients of this surprise 40th birthday present! If you’re interested in a portrait for yourself or as a present for friends, […]
The Layton-Hays coat of arms
We are on holiday with our very lovely friends and kids in Dorset – and getting to know each other better while sharing a little wine (ahem). And so a portrait made a lot of sense to celebrate our time together. This is a pretty […]
The Mengardon-Coates
The one that started it all… this is my very own family, a couple of years ago – I know because it ‘only’ includes three cats, and we have since acquired three more. We read a lot of Going on a bear hunt for my […]
