Welcome to my Blog!


I hope you'll get to know me a little better over here. I'll use this space to share stories from my client shoots, some personal photography projects, and other useful information that I think will help you.


I'll start off with a few facts about me...

"Floats like a butterfly, stings like a bee" photograph by Jane Nicholson Photography.

1. I won an award for this photo.


In 2022, I shot this image, entitled "Float like a butterfly, Sting like a bee", in Jubilee Park, and entered it in the Canary Wharf inFocus photography competition.


There were over 1,500 entries and as well as winning the "Up Close and personal with nature" category, I also won 'Best Overall'.


To find out more, you can read the blog post I wrote for Lens Eleven here.

2. I have 60 Plants around the house


(I knew I had a lot of plants, but I've just counted, and shocked myself at how many I actually have!) Looking after and propagating house plants is a hobby I picked up during lockdown. Prior to that I couldn't keep a plant alive!

3. I love bubbles.



I will use any excuse to get the bubbles out. If you book a family shoot with me, bubbles are very likely to make an appearance!

4. I shoot on Canon


I am a Canon girl through and through! My dad gave me my first camera, the film SLR above. I also own (and used to shoot on) 450D and 70D DSLRs, and now I shoot with the mirrorless R6.

5. I got married in Mauritius.


My grandparents lived in Mauritius, and they were too old to travel to the UK, so we brought the wedding to Mauritius. So many of our friends flew out, and it was the best holiday ever!

6. My most memorable holiday destination was Syria.


My most memorable holiday (apart from getting married in Mauritius) was visiting Syria in 2010. I took so many photos on that trip and it saddens me to think that a lot of it isn't there anymore.

7. I am an Accountant.



I am qualified as a chartered accountant, and have worked in the City and Canary Wharf, London for 15 years.


Living and working in London has definitely fuelled my love for street photography.


And finally, for all things food...


  • I am a chocoholic
  • My favourite foods are dim sum, tapas, sushi. Basically anything that can be shared!
  • My favourite gin at the moment is Tanqueray Sevilla, and my favourite wine is Viña Esmeralda. I introduce it to everyone and haven't found anyone who doesn't love it too!

Thank you so much taking the time out to get to know me. If you would like to get in touch to arrange a shoot, let's chat, I would love to get to know you. Jane x
