Amelia's Christening February 24, 2010

Recently my brother and sister in law asked me to document my youngest niece's Christening. So last weekend we packed up the dog (affectionately known as Aunty Bumpy to the girls!!) and headed for Derby to celebrate Amelia. Thanks for a great weekend Jeremy and Catherine, you'll be impressed to know the slab of cake you sent us home with made it the entire journey and we didn't stop once to stock up on sausage rolls. It was great to meet friends and family and I hope you enjoy these images. Grandparents........have your Kleenex handy!!!
Love Bec xxx

If you'd like information on family portrait sessions, please call on 0191 222 1309 or email me at bec@alisongroves.com. Maybe we could arrange to do a shoot next time I'm visiting Jeremy and Catherine!!

Chloe & Charlotte February 16, 2010

Whilst we were down in Battersea I caught up with Nadya and her little girl Chloe. I shot Nadya's wedding to Robin in 2008, when Chloe was just a baby. so it was lovely to catch up with them again! We included Chloe's little playmate Charlotte in the shoot, and let them run around Battersea Park - it was the best way to keep warm!!
Hope you like them girls!

Tiny Lives Charity Dinner, Ellingham Hall February 15, 2010

Last weekend, the gorgeous Ellingham Hall in Northumberland played host to the Tiny Lives charity dinner. The night was a huge success and Jane Robson, who did a truly amazing job pulling the night together, tells us that an estimated £10,000 was raised for the charity. As some of you may know, we support Tiny Lives here at Alison Groves Photography and the valuable work they do supporting premature babies and their families, based at the RVI in Newcastle.

What an amazing setting







Oysters!! Say Ali, have you ever tried an oyster? No!! Well, tonights the perfect opportunity. Go on.......




The tentative approach.......




The nervous giggle........




Mmmmm, not so bad afterall?!?!?




And she lives to tell the tale.




Well done!!!!! A round of applause if you please.

Ryan & Linzy February 12, 2010

Ryan and Linzy got married between Christmas and New Years on a snowy winters day. Beamish Hall was the perfect reception venue and the day was an absolute joy to photograph, not least of all because Linzy, Ryan and their families had me laughing all day. Here are some shots they might like to choose for a thank you card!!

The perfect Valentines gift...boudoir! January 14, 2010

I know its not even Christmas yet - but we are thinking ahead to Valentines Day!! We do lots of boudoir shoots at the start of the year, so that you can give your other half a cheeky book of images for valentines Day. Or sometimes its the men who buy a voucher for the shoot to give as a gift....a win, win situation!!

Obviously, the majority of our clients prefer to keep their images to themselves, but a very brave client agreed to let us use her images in publicity material.

We have a few slots left for shoots in time for Valentines day, and if you book before 15th January, you will receive £50 off the shoot fee. Give us a call or Email us to find our more!!

...baby its cold outside January 13, 2010

This morning I had to scrape ice off the car......it was FREEZING! But then went on and did a portrait shoot at a park mid morning. Just because its cold outside, we dont stop doing our portrait shoots! Some of our favourite shoots have been done in the winter - we just all get wrapped up well, and run around a lot!!
I have put together a slideshow of a few of our winter shoots including some of my boys (sorry - couldnt resist!).

We still have a few slots available for shoots before Christmas, and lots of clients are treating friends and family to a voucher for a shoot as a Christmas present. Give us a call if you are interested!
