  • Environmental Family Pictures at Danbury Lakes

    Environmental Family Pictures at Danbury Lakes

    Claire and Tim got in touch with us again at the end of last year about some Environmental Family Pictures. Tim’s Mum and Dad, Jenny and Chris wanted to have some pictures of the family. We love to do pictures outside and Danbury Lakes was the favoured place to go. Danbury Lakes is a lovely setting for outdoor pictures and fingers crossed everyone could make it and the weather would be fine. We met there and off we all went with scooters in tow as well! We couldn’t have asked for a better afternoon, we took some lovely pictures, had a catch up, all out in the fresh air! Helen, Tim’s sister was visiting that particular weekend with her family so everything worked out fine. A lovely time and a great family.

  • Epping Forest Environmental Photoshoot

    Epping Forest Environmental Photoshoot

    Leanne contacted us to arrange an Epping Forest Environmental Photoshoot for her family.  To get everyone together for a photoshoot is tricky but we got there in the end! Epping Forest was the chosen place to meet on a late Autumn Sunday morning. It was a cold, slightly foggy and misty morning when we arrived. The forecast said the mist would lift and they were right! The right choice of meeting point made sure nobody had to walk too far, which was good as the  babies were in buggies! Epping Forest provided a wonderful setting for us to take a variety of pictures. It was such a beautiful morning and we all had an enjoyable time  ending up with some wonderful pictures. Thank you to all twelve members of Leanne’s family for being such a joy to work with.

  • Corporate Head shots Witham Chamber of Commerce

    Corporate Head shots Witham Chamber of Commerce

     

    We recently took Corporate Head shots  in association with Witham Chamber of Commerce.

    For all business people a good quality up to date profile picture is essential for websites and social media.

    The temptation is of course to do a selfie and save some money. Unfortunately this often creating a poor quality picture which then reflects on the business.

    Whilst we are able to offer larger companies this service at their premisis the cost benefit ratio for smaller companies and sole traders is hard to justify!

    By working with Witham Chamber of Commerce we were able to provide a high quality low cost option at a central location.

    The even was so successful that we will be running it again in the near future!

  • Home Family Photos

    Home Family Photos

    It was lovely to hear from Donna and Sam again last year asking us if we could take some Home Family Photos for them. Donna and Sam were married in 2015 at Hintlesham Hall, Suffolk. Now they have a son, called Arthur. We went to their home to take the pictures. Arthur was good and loved having his pictures taken a.k.a. playing!!. He did keep us working hard though, as he liked to be on the move. Despite that we took some lovely family pictures and of Arthur alone. He  did stay still at some moments! We provided a mixture of colour, and black & white, our favourites are the B&W ones.

  • Environmental Portraits

    Environmental Portraits

    Out of the blue in the Autumn last year we received a phone call from Val who wanted some Environmental Portraits. We last saw Val about eight years ago. We first met Val and Matt a few years prior to that when we too pictures of  their first son Jake. Again for their son Oli and then again for their daughter Lexi!

    Our conversation lasted a long time catching up on their lives since their return to the UK! Val and Matt’s family had now increased by three! Val and Matt wanted some informal environmental pictures taken of their family. A date and day was chosen and how lucky we were with the weather. We couldn’t of asked for a better Autumn day.

    Portraits in the park!

    Off to the park we went! What a time we had, ending up with a variety of pictures.  It was great to meet Sam and the twins, Frankie and Ben for the first time and as well as seeing the rest of the family. It was a privilege to provide Val and Matt with a book of the memories of their family.

  • Family Portraits Chelmsford

    Family Portraits Chelmsford

    It was nice when Louise and Stephen got in touch with us a few months ago asking about some Family Portraits Chelmsford. They wanted some pictures taken then they could choose one as a present for Stephen’s Mum’s special Birthday. Ideally of the four grandchildren. When we photographed Louise and Stephen’s Wedding in 2014 at Crabbs Barn,they already had their daughter Emily. Now they also have have a son called Oliver. Stephen’s sister joined us on the arranged weekend morning at Louise and Stephen’s home with her two daughters.  It was pretty lively with a two year old, we had fun, and they ended up with a variety of pictures to choose from. We often hear ‘we have nowhere to take pictures’, a small space is just fine.

    New Baby Family Portraits

    Catherine and Jamie wanted some New Baby Family Portraits recently. We were Catherine and Jamie’s Wedding Photographers for their Winter Wedding at  The Old Rectory Brentwood, Essex in 2015. They now have a son called Stanley and when we took the pictures he was six months old. He had just had a sleep and was having fun and enjoying the attention. It was also the right time to take the pictures as Stanley was just on the verge of crawling.  We had a fun time and ended up with some lovely images. Looking forward to the next time!

  • Relaxed Family Photos for Vicki and Sean

    Relaxed Family Photos

    Relaxed Family Photos with Vicki, Sean, Owen and Phoebe are always great and lively! Deciding the best way to do this was to to go for a walk near to where they live in the centre of Essex. The walk in the park and woods worked well. This also involved catching up with them as we have photographed them several times previously as a family and for their wedding. Chatting, relaxing all helps  make the natural pictures even better!  We do have great fun doing these pictures!  Looking forward to our next meeting for some more fun.Relaxed Family Photos Essex Environmental Portrait Photographer

  • Family Photo session for Claire & Tim

    Family Photo session for Claire & Tim

    It was great news to hear that Claire and Tim had become Parents to a second baby boy recently and that they wanted another Family Photo session at their home in Essex.  We arranged a suitable day and time to visit them at their home and create their images. We photographed Claire and Tim’s wedding when they were married at the wonderful Fennes in 2012. We continue to see Claire and Tim from time to time to update their Family pictures and love doing so. How well would this photo session go! Claire and Tim now have two children, Noah who is nearly four years old and Henry who was just ten days old. No worries,Noah was lively as you would expect a four year old to be and as for Henry, what more could we ask for, happy and content. As for the Parents, chilled! We had a lovely time and achieved some nice results.
