My Story

HELLO LOVELY!

I'm Rosie

Here is my story....

The Early Days...

Photography has always been my passion. I started my journey by studying photography at university, eager to learn everything I could about capturing life’s moments. It became more than a career for me, it became a way to document stories and create lasting memories.

A Life-Changing Loss

But my perspective shifted deeply when my dad passed away from cancer. His sudden loss made me realise just how precious and fleeting life can be, and how much power there is in a single image to bring comfort, connection, and a flood of memories.

Becoming a Mum

When I became a mum, my camera naturally turned to my children. Watching them grow so quickly—each milestone, every messy, uncooperative moment—I felt a renewed urgency to freeze these fleeting moments in time. Photography became a way for me to preserve the magic of their childhood, even in the chaos.

Lockdown Lessons

Then the pandemic hit, and two years of lockdown kept us all apart from family, amplifying just how much relationships and connections matter. During that time, I found myself turning to the photos I’d taken—not just as memories, but as lifelines to the people we love, especially when we couldn’t be together. Those photos brought comfort, reminding me of what’s truly important.

...And That's Why I Created Mums Photo Academy...

Through all of this, I realised I wanted to share what I’d learned, both as a photographer and a mum, with other mums who, like me, want to capture their family’s stories in all their messy, beautiful, realness.

I started Mums Photo Academy to empower other mums to stop time, even just for a moment, and preserve their families' stories. Because I know how quickly those moments slip by, and how powerful it can be to look back at them when life feels overwhelming.

My Mission...

EMPOWERING MUMS TO CAPTURE AUTHENTIC FAMILY MOMENTS WITH EASE.

My mission is to help other mums embrace their creativity and take control of their family’s story through photography.

I want to show you how easy it can be, without fancy equipment or tons of experience, to create beautiful memories with nothing more than your phone.

These images will be more than pictures—they’ll be windows into your family’s love, laughter, and connection, reminding you of what matters most when life feels hectic.

I believe that photography can be a way to reconnect with your family, to see the beauty in the everyday moments, and to lift your spirits when life gets busy and stressful.

I’m here to help you create your own beautiful story and give you the tools to make those memories last a lifetime.Let’s create something special together!
