We have started our March Specials. In case you didn’t already know we are offering a limited number of complimentary studio portrait sessions for babies up to 12 months old. A preview of some rather adorable babies to follow…..
From our Thursday session…….
This little guy complete with tie was dressed to impress!
It was a pleasure doing this newborn shoot for a good client of mine. This beautiful baby boy is the latest addition to the family. These portraits show him taking a snooze but for much of the time he was wide awake! I bet in another year he’s going to be very busy with his trucks and trains.
It’s Halloween today and whilst I am thinking about treats I figured this session was one to show. What a treat it was to meet and photograph this family. This baby was full of lovely expressions and she came with her little pumpkin outfit too!
I photographed this little girl a year ago. Her portrait (lying in a basket surrounded by leaves) is in my baby gallery. Here she is back again and ready to explore. She was dressed to impress with her bear for company. I just loved the coat and hat which was a perfect choice for our first chilly morning of Fall!
I spent a delightful hour with these children. This little girl had a fun time exploring the bridge and playing with bubbles. She also has three fantastic brothers. They love soccer and I think they make a fantastic team. The portrait below is one of my favorites this year.
This little guy was 10 days old when I met him last week. Here are some portraits of him sound asleep although he decided to delay his naptime until we were well into the session!
It’s a big wide world out there if you’re just 8 months old. There’s plenty to look at, touch, pick and try to eat. (If Dad’s not looking.) I mean who wants to look at a silly lady with a camera anyway! I had to be quick with this little girl to capture a few glances cast my way. She is rather lovely though and we had perfect light for this family session. It’s nice to get back to meeting new families and taking their portraits. I’ve got some delightful images to work on from this session.
Due to the light, evenings are the best time for outdoor sessions. However it can be a difficult part of the day for some babies which makes parents reluctant to schedule a photo session. Obviously early evening isn’t suitable for all but if after supper your youngster has some mellow time then it’s worth giving it a try even if it’s just for a mini session.
Here’s a selection from a recent session. I captured some lovely images. The first portrait is one of my favorites so far this Summer. I really like the way the calmness of the boy contrasts with his more expressive sister as she checks out the flower.
The clouds thinned out about five minutes before we started this session and the available light was perfect. Often clients expect that clouds will lead to a shoot being cancelled. As long as the sky isn’t heavily dark with rain clouds then overcast conditions are fine for photographs.
