The Carpani Family August 20, 2010

What can I tell you about the Carpanis? They were an infectiously happy family who were enjoying a brilliant holiday on the Northumberland Coast. They told me that they were inspired by their beautiful surroundings enough to brave a family portrait. And as you can tell, it paid off - we had a blast! In fact we had such a nice time at Bamburgh, that I took my family there the following weekend.

The Carpani's stayed at one of the gorgeous cottages available through Coastal Retreats. If you'd like to get away with your family or partner to explore Northumberland, check out their website.

Coastal Retreats April 15, 2010

We first met the lovely Leaver family in 2008 when they were staying at a Coastal Retreats cottage up in Northumberland. At that time they were five.....now they are six, and so we did another shoot for them last week to include the new addition, George!!

We do lots of shoots for Coastal Retreats clients whilst they are on holiday. Its a perfect opportunity to get some family shots whilst you are all together, relaxed and having fun!

Check out the beautiful cottages on their website - Coastal Retreats

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!

...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!

Sheila's babies... October 20, 2009

A couple of months ago, Bec and I travelled up to Glasgow to do a wedding with 88 Events. Sheila from 88 Events had asked us to do a shoot of "her babies" ...four gorgeous grand daughters at her house. We got there to be greeted by 4 pink fairies!! in high heels!! Click on the slideshow above to see the full shoot.

ps the music on the slideshow is what the girls were dancing to in the garden.......Sheila's choice - not mine!!

Freya & George August 30, 2009

I first met Jo & Jon Cook when I shot their wedding, back in 2003. Since then I have also done a shoot when Freya was first born in 2006, and so was over the moon to hear from them again a few weeks ago, to ask me to do another family shoot, with little George, who was born in June.
We met at Jesmond Dene. so that Freya could be occupied with the animals at Pets Corner.......although the ice cream van proved to be more of a distraction!!
Jo & Jon, shall I book you in the diary for another 3 years time??

Katie & Issy August 12, 2009

Bec had a fantastic time last week with the gorgeous Alison family, while they were holidaying at Bumburgh. 5 year old twins Katie and Issy provided heaps of entertainment and all three generations of the family were up for anything and everything, including a few fierce piggyback races!!!

The shoot was done to celebrate the 50th Wedding Anniversary of Jack and Margaret. What a lovely way to celebrate and keep treasured memories from their holiday together.
Congratulations!!!!

Jonah March 27, 2009

I met Jonah's Mum and Dad a few days before he was born, to do a bump shoot, and then went back to meet him when he was a week old at their house. I know they have been struggling to get any images out to friends - so here are a few! Hope you all like them!
