Don’t worry about a thing! I have photographed literally hundreds of families and have coaxed even the most reluctant child (and parent for that matter!) out of their shell to have fun. As we play games and move round a lot, children are engaged and are never ‘forced’ to do something they don’t want to. I concentrate on families in various combinations ensuring that everyone gets a turn and everyone has a break when they need it.

Apart from talking through your outfits, it’s really important that you arrive on the day as relaxed as possible. Everyone can leave their ‘cheese’ smiles at home because what we want is a family ready to have fun together for a while. Talk to your kids about it being a fun time rather than a time when they ‘must behave’ always works best.

The majority of my clients have admitted the same which is why you are the best person for my sessions. Without the pressure to look at the camera and with lots of encouragement to have fun and be yourself, you’ll love having your photo taken. Promise.

Most types of weather won’t stop me shooting but if the forecast is consistently not great, we’ll make a call the day before and reschedule, I keep Sundays free for this reason. To get the very best light of the day it’s vital that we shoot just before sunset, the exact times will change as the days shorten through the Autumn.

I’ll have your photos uploaded to your online gallery within two weeks of your session where you’ll be able to download them immediately, if things are really busy and there is a delay, I’ll let you know.

I love seeing your photos in print and only use the very best print labs for my products. I offer stunning lay flat albums with incredible matte paper and bespoke covers as well as framed prints handmade by my local framer. Do ask for more information, if you’d like something else, I can probably source it for you.
