Family Portrait Shoot

This was a recent portrait session done on a sunny day at the family's home, which I think is a great way for people to feel more relaxed in front of the camera. The kids were brilliant and we discovered that telling Laura not to smile or laugh under any circumstance was a sure fire way to get a grin out of her.

Portraits - Jo & Simon

In preparation for their wedding at Eslington Villa this summer, this was Jo & Simon's portrait session with me. We did the session in Newcastle city centre, wandering around picking out interesting spots as backdrops.
I look forward to seeing you both on the wedding day :)

Family Portrait Shoot

I first photographed Amelie, Louie, William & Millie 2 years ago. With the new additions of Anna & Phoebe we did this portrait session as a present for their grandparent's wedding anniversary. It was really lovely to photograph them all again and see the family growing. It was also great as Amelie & William remembered me from last time...and so were practiced models in front of the camera!

Portrait session - Emma & Colin

I am photographing Emma and Colin's wedding next month at Horton Grange. This was their portrait session with me in preparation for the big day. It was a grey rainy day, but it didn't seem to bother these two much. I love it when people are just so visibly happy together - it's a joy to photograph. Can't wait for the wedding :)

Family Portrait Shoot

These portraits of Katy, Emily and Matty were done at home in their garden. They were brilliant little models and Matty especially, had a fantastic smile tucked up his sleeve for the camera.

Wizard & Levi

Wizard & Levi are related to JJ (see the previous post). So after seeing what a natural he was in front of the camera, we did some more portraits with these two. We had a bit of a cold misty day for their portrait session, but the girls braved the weather and we got some lovely shots.

My lesson for the day was never stand on ant hills...not even for a minute to take a quick photograph!

Portraits of JJ

This was a recent portrait session of the lovely JJ. With a bit of help and planning it was done as a surprise present for his owner.
