James and Sarah got in touch with us recently about updating their family pictures. We can’t believe it was their Wedding in 2010 which we photographed at Barnsdale Hall, Rutland. Finding a time when all family members can get together is always hard but worthwhile in the end.
We were delighted when Sam e-mailed us in December last year about taking some family pictures. This was to be whilst Sam, Mike and daughter Rosie were over from Canada. We were Wedding Photographers for Sam and Mike, who were married at Crabbs Barn in 2011. A couple of days after they were married they went travelling around the world. They liked Canada so much they decided they wanted to live there! After finding an agreed date for taking the Environmental Family Portraits, we decided to meet at Hylands Park one morning in December last year. Sam’s Mum, Dad, her Brother, his Wife and son joined us as well. Going for a walk around Hylands Park we found some nice areas for some pictures and the weather was good. Catching up with the family was wonderful and we had a lovely time.
We enjoy making Environmental Family Portraits Essex and beyond!
It was nice to be asked by Sarah and Russell to again update their family pictures. Previously we had taken pictures of their son, Beau and a couple of family pictures. Now they wanted some pictures of their new daughter, Fleur as well as some of them altogether. Beau liked being the big brother, helping us out and keeping Fleur amused. Lovely to see this family again and we look forward to seeing them later this year. We were wedding photographers for Sarah and Russell at Crabbs Barn a few years back.Children and babies are always fun to capture. Whilst it is great to work with new clients, it is fantastic to see our former wedding couples again and how they are moving on in life – we feel part of their life story!
Rebecca and James were married at Layer Marney Tower in 2014, so it was nice to see them again in December last year. They wanted us to photograph their baby daughter, Chloe, who was only a few days old. Taking a variety of pictures including some family pictures they ended up with some nice memories of those early days with a newborn. As usual for Newborn Family Portraits we visited the family in their own home, which makes life so much easier for the parents. As is obvious from the pictures we don’t need very much room for these.
As always it was nice to meet up with Sam and Neil and their two children, William and Freddy as we regularly do, this time before Christmas. We do have a fun time and this time was no exception. One of the requests was for pictures for their christmas cards.
It was lovely to see Rachel and Dom again for their Children and Family Portraits. We were their Photographers for their Wedding in 2009 at Woolston Manor Golf Club. They are now the proud Parents of twin girls, Sophia and Amelia. We had arranged to meet them early morning in the late Autumn at their house and go for a walk in Epping Forrest. It was a dry day albeit quite wet under foot! Finding a sheltered place where the girls could just wander about amongst the leaves was not too difficult as Rachel and Dom are surrounded by woods! After a few pictures of Sophia and Amelia on their own, we managed to achieve a few family pictures. On our return to Rachel and Dom’s house the children wanted to play in the garden. Fine by us! This ended an enjoyable morning!
In between our busy period of photographing Weddings back in the early Autumn last year we spent a lovely morning taking some family photos. We were delighted to be asked by Sharyn, one of Fennes co-ordinators, to take some family photographs. Sharyn’s daughter and her family were over from Australia, so with all the family getting together, fingers were crossed for nice weather on the date they chose! The weather was great and all the pictures came together with the minimum of fuss. We had such an enjoyable time it didn’t feel as if we we were working! A wonderful family, and an enjoyable morning!
We were pleased to hear from Martin and Jess again in September last year telling us their news. They now have a daughter, Evie, and have now moved to Essex. Martin and Jess wanted some pictures of Evie and some up-dated pictures of Charlie, their Son, we couldn’t believe it was in 2010 they were married at Layer Marney Tower and almost a couple of years ago when we last photographed Charlie! When we arrived at their house, Jess was out picking up Charlie from a birthday party, which gave us some time to take some pictures of Evie. By the time they arrived back we had done this. After Charlie had told us about how much fun he had at the birthday party, he was more than happy to go outside. Martin and Jess wanted a couple of family pictures taken as well which we were able to achieve in the garden. An enjoyable time spent with a lovely family.
It was lovely to see Vicki and Sean again, together with their children Owen and Phoebe. We photographed Vicki and Sean’s Wedding at Crabbs Barn in June 2011 and subsequently photographed Owen several times and this was the second time we took Phoebe’s portrait! It is great to keep in contact with previous clients and become friends which Vicki and Sean truly are! The day when we took the latest pictures happened to be Owen’s Birthday, so excitement was rife! What fun we had and what great results! Child portraits are always challenging and usually fun.
What a lovely morning taking natural family portraits! We just love meeting up with past clients who have now become friends! Spending time catching up on news, whilst capturing some lovely pictures. Lottie and Rich were married in 2007 at Burgh Island, Devon and now have two daughters, Matilda and Imogen. They wanted some up-to-date pictures of the girls, some family pictures, including the Grandparents pictures of course, at their Parents’ home. They were not disappointed and we are looking forward to the next time. We provided them individual prints, a canvas and a beautiful keepsake book.
