    It was nice when Paul got in touch with us again towards the end of last year for an updated Family Portrait.

    Paul’s Mum and Dad wanted to up date the canvas picture they had of their three sons. We had taken the previous one 10 years ago! Paul and his Brothers came to us to have their picture taken.

    We kept the arrangement the same aspreviously. The picture was done in next to no time.

    The Family Portrait they chose was printed on canvas and framed in a virtually identical frame.

    Hopefully we’ll be able to do another update in 10 years time!

    Environmental Family Portraiture in a Country Park.

    Trying to get everyone together for a little time is always a task and for this session it was the same.

    The weather just about held although a touch dim and damp at the time we took to do the pictures.

    Gail and Fiona wanted to provide an updated picture of all of them for their Mum and Dad as a present for Christmas as well as a few other pictures.

    Country Park Photography

    Meeting outdoors was the obvious choice and Clare Country Park was our agreed place. It was great to see, catch up, walk, talk and take some pictures and ending up with a good selection of formal and informal pictures to choose from.

    With a wide range of ages and children who took a litte cajooling, we didn’t do too bad Environmental Family Portraiture! A big thank you to all of them!

    Jeanette and Ben used one of our Gift Vouchers to enable them to have Family Photography of their children.

    We went to their home one morning in September last year to take these pictures. Indoor pictures were the order of the day as their children, Joseph and Samuel were young. We set up a background, and as usual there is no time limit when we have these sessions, so we can build up a rapport with the children. The family had not had the best night’s sleep so we had our fingers crossed that we would get some pictures. In fact, all was fine, Mummy and Daddy joined their children for a few pictures as well. A good morning of Family Photography!

  • Outdoor Family Portraits

    It was lovely to see Nathan and Alison again to take some Outdoor Family Portraits. We arranged to meet at Pods Wood, Tiptree, one afternoon. It was a nice day and going for an enjoyable walk around the wood with Elodie and Rupert.

    Talking was constant as we caught up with all the goings on within the family, whilst taking pictures as well. Environmental shoots are great, relaxing, and we always end up with a nice selection of pictures. Today was no exception. Looking forward to next time.

    We were delighted to be asked again by Joan and Dave to update their Family portraits. Over the years the family has extended and from time to time we have taken pictures for them. We have known this wonderful family from when we took Sam and Mike’s Wedding pictures at Crabbs Barn in 2012. Deciding the best place to get everyone together this time was at Mum and Dad’s house. One afternoon in the summer last year we arranged to go to them.

    Garden pictures were what they wanted and the easiest to do and fortunately the weather was spot on. Dry and warm! Various family pictures as well as a few informal pictures were taken. So nice to meet Max for the first time, Sam and Mike’s son and to see again Rosie, their daughter. Catching up with Stacey and Chris again was nice as well, meeting again and seeing Chase for the first time.

    In all a very enjoyable afternoon was had by all and some nice relaxed family portraits.

    Home Portraits

    Richard got in touch with us last summer enquiring about taking some home portraits of his two children. Ideally the pictures would be taken in their wonderful garden if the weather was fine. Unfortunately, the morning we arranged the heavens opened! No problem, we just set up our lights and used the superb interior of the home for the pictures. This worked really well and we were able to provide Richard with a variety of indoor pictures. We were drawn to the garden because there was such opportunity of some nice pictures to be taken.

    There didn’t seem much hope of us getting out there but we kept peering out the windows just for that break. It came! The rain had not stopped but it had eased off enough for us and and to venture out! Brollies handy, and using the cover of the house at times, props in the garden, we managed to get another set of pictures. So pleased!

    To get this message from Richard certainly made us happy as well.

    Just to say that Jill and I are really pleased with the photos – many thanks for braving the rain and making it work so well!

  • Baby and Family Portraiture

    It was so nice to see Nick and Cara again in the Spring last year especially as we could meet their son, Havey, for the first time and create them some Baby and Family Portraiture.

    We had heard all about Havey so it was lovely to finally see him. Nick and Cara live in Australia so we me up with them whilst they were visiting family and friends in the UK. From the moment we first set eyes on Havey, he just smiled! So easy to take pictures of and he was happy to oblige!

  • Outdoor Family Portraits

    Springtime Outdoor Family Portraits for Debbie, Brian and their family.

    We were the Wedding Photographers for Rob and Nicola’s Wedding at Prested Hall, Feering. We have also know the family for a number of years. Some updated family pictures were required, which happens with most families as they become extended. Earlier in the morning it looked like the rain was not going away but at the time of meeting up it had stopped. It was just as well as Debbie and Brian wanted the pictures outside!

    We went for a short walk, finding the area where we knew would be suitable for the pictures. Debbie and Brian ended up with a great variety of family pictures which they were pleased with and so were we.

    The classic family “all walk together” picture worked once again! Another good set of Outdoor Family Portraits.
