Hi, I’m Saskia, your documentary photographer and filmmaker

I make photographs and films that feel like you. No stiff poses, no pretending — just honest images full of personality that show the beauty in real life. I’m based in South-East London and love working with families, businesses and charities all over the UK and beyond.

Telling your story

I don’t believe photos are about looking nice or being “perfect.” To me, they’re about identity and storytelling: who you are, who you love, and how you want to be remembered. They’re about connection — with your family, your clients, your community. And they’re about emotion — because photos can transport us back and make us feel.

I care deeply about the people I photograph. I’ll take the time to help you feel at ease, so you can simply be yourself. When you enjoy the process, the images reflect it: intimate, alive, full of personality and emotion.

More about me

And how about you?

You value honesty and authenticity. You want your personality — and that of others, to shine in your photos.
You believe in self-acceptance (wrinkles, curves, crooked nose and all) even if it’s a work in progress (I’m on this same journey).
You hate awkward posing, and want your photo session to be a relaxed and fun experience for all involved (including a reluctant partner!).
You’re rarely in photos yourself, but deep down you wish you could look back and see yourself in the moment.
You know there’s beauty in ordinary moments, When you see your pictures you want to look at real memories and adventures.
You know that perfection is a myth. What matters to you is what your family feels like. The connections, the love, the funny jokes, the emotions.
You want photos you’ll actually use — on your walls, in albums, or if you’re a business or charity in print, website, and socials.
