A PROFESSIONAL photographer has raised nearly £1,000 for NHS Together and Yorkshire Air Ambulance with her portraits.

Heather Elliott, who lives in Bradford and has a studio in Cleckheaton, decided while she was sitting at home to raise some money for charity.

She has now pictured more 215 children in rainbow pictures.

Heather changed professions from a bank manager in 2014 to follow her heart and become a full-time photographer.

She usually specialises in newborn babies, maternity and children but with lockdown turned her hand to some new skills.

She said: "Its been a fun, novel way to spend my time and something little more cheerful in these strange time.

"Like everyone I can’t wait to get back to 'normal’ whatever that may look like."
