Single Mums, Dads, and carers, Because We Deserve to Exist in Memories Too!

After my divorce, I found myself feeling like taking photos with my kids didn’t matter as much anymore. I’ve also seen friends go through separation, and two close friends lost their partners, becoming single parents unwillingly. It’s hard, and it’s scary. When life shifts like that, it’s easy to always put the kids first and forget about yourself. My photo session offer is designed to make it easier and more affordable for single parents to step into the spotlight for once—because you deserve to be in those precious memories, too. (my package is listed at the bottom of this blog!)

We all grew up thinking the “perfect family” is a mum, dad, and 2.5 kids (still not sure how that half-kid works!). And hey, that’s a great setup for some! But as someone who’s been a single parent, I’ve definitely fallen into the trap of idealizing that picture-perfect mold—and let’s be real, I really didn’t need to.

I get it—I’ve felt the judgment as a single parent. “Where’s the other parent? Just you and the kids?” But families aren’t one-size-fits-all. They come in all shapes, sizes, and glorious chaos. Whether you’re a single mum or dad, you and your kids deserve to be celebrated and captured, too!

And that’s where professional photos come in. Hear me out—yes, you can attempt a selfie with your kid clinging to your leg while you’re making the “mom/dad face” (you know the one). But let’s be real, selfies ain’t gonna cut it when you’re looking for something special that captures the true bond you have with your kids. Plus, you deserve to exist in photos with them—not always stuck behind the camera!

Why It’s So Important to Exist in Photos

It’s not just about Instagram (though we do love a good post). It’s for your kids, the memories, and that fridge photo frame! One day, they’ll look back and see how strong, awesome, and hilarious you were, remembering the real moments that mattered.

Single parents are superheroes in their own right. So, why not let a photoshoot capture that? Whether you’re running after your toddler in a park or having a heartfelt moment with your teenager, these are the memories worth freezing in time.
