Family Portraits: Amy, Ollie & Joel

A few shots form a family portrait session recently.

The little boy, Joel was very shy that it was quite a challenge to get him to look at the camera at first but after a short while he became a bit more comfortable.

Owen - Shoot Number Three!

My nephew, Owen has recently had his third shoot. I don't get to see him very often as I live nearly 4 hours away so I make sure that I take plenty of photographs. This time, I managed to get my sister, Alex, in front of the camera, which isn't something that she does willingly very often!



It was nice to be able to capture some intimate images of a new mother and her son, and despite Owen being a bit grumpy, he was still quite happy to pose for the camera!
You can see that he is already practicing his look of disapproval for his mum's attention - I'm sure he will put that to more use when he eventually starts school!



Alex isn't a fond fan of photographs of herself, however, she has taken a liking to quite a few of these!

A photo of me!

Its so rare that you see a photograph of me because I'm nearly ALWAYS behind a camera!
Anyway, I found one, a photo of me. And guess what...? I'm behind a camera!

Cotswold Town & County Councillors

With the local elections fast approaching, some of the Cotswolds' Town and County Councillors were in need of some fresh head shots for their promotional materials and websites.

This also gave me the perfect opportunity to experiment with my new portable backdrop so now I have a fully portable studio for shoots!

I am not used to producing such static images but the images were to serve illustrative purposes rather than sentimental or creative and feedback was definitely very good!

I wish them all the best in the elections!

Eleanor, Andrew & Ollie

Last week I had a family portrait session with a lovely family back in the Cotswolds, Eleanor, Andrew and 2 and a half month old Ollie.

This was Ollie's first photoshoot so I was very privileged. Ollie was ever so good (although a little tired) and seemed quite comfortable in front of the camera as were his mum and dad.

The family were very pleased with the photographs and have asked for another shoot when Ollie is a little older.

Ollie's First Photoshoot

Yesterday I had the pleasure of photographing 2 and a half month old Ollie and his parents.

More photographs to follow soon!
