WHAT'S INSIDE
Hello, I'm Elena, mum of three beautiful and chaotic children. An escaped accountant turned photographer. Lover of food, sunshine and creating memories.
I treasure capturing the moments your body grew and nurtured a little life. To bringing your bundle of joy into this world and cradling them in your arms. To reflecting on your baby’s milestones; from sitting, to crawling, even walking. To the beauty of your family's connection and each unique personality.
I am passionate with creating a memorable experience for you and your family, while capturing those, flaws and flawless moments. The beauty of such an art truly fulfils my heart. Especially seeing the sparkle in your eyes and your gratifying face, when you hold those images in your hands.
Let's embark on this journey together.
