Every summer for the past three years I’ve had a Soulful Shoot with Ann, florist and founder of Double Happiness Studio, to celebrate her son Kiran’s birthday and also her incredible floral art.
Ann blends east with west, creating floral aesthetics beyond the ordinary for weddings, events and editorial. Our previous shoots have been incredible, but each year they just seem to get better and better!
Hiring ‘The Talbot’ pub in Brockley, a lovely airy and light space, Ann set up an Alice in Wonderland type floral display on a table complete with flowers, Lola’s cupcakes and beautiful tableware.
Ann wanted me to capture shots of Kiran (who’s now three and keeps getting cuter!), some personal branding portraits of herself, details of her incredible flowers, plus some of her family centre stage. Ann’s husband Rajirags always loves to sneak in for a few portraits too amongst the flowers!
We spent a couple of hours shooting, with Ann arranging the table display and all of us keeping Kiran entertained with his toy rabbit, flower stems and a cupcake. These shoots are always so much fun and I absolutely love what we created together… with way too many photos to choose from, it was hard to decide on the final cut, because this is one photogenic family!
After the shoot, as per the last two years, Ann sent me home with the most beautiful bouquet of flowers. Always an added bonus to be taking brand photos of a florist! Thanks Ann and happy birthday Kiran!

WOULD YOU LIKE SOME VIBRANT SOULFUL BRAND PHOTOS?
I can help! I use my skills as an intuitive life coach to really get to know you and your business before we shoot together, so you can feel relaxed and in safe hands on the day of our shoot. I promise it will be fun and most importantly that you’ll come away with a strong set of imagery to truly represent you and your business.
