The little girl was such a darling to photograph – she loved posing and working the camera. The little boy on the other hand could not be more different; he worked the camera alright, with a grumpy face pretty much the entire time. Ah, but I caught him smiling in two shots and that was just wonderful!
Where do I begin? 22 people which include 11 kids all under the age of 6! I reckon the best place to start is with the head of the clan…. no doubt the calmest and most gentle grandparents to 11 small children I have ever met! We were all in one big room and the kids were running around, clambering over sofas and chairs, rolling on the floor. But it didn’t feel stressful or noisy for some reason. It felt as if life just carried on; it was normal. I … Continue reading My biggest photoshoot to date: a clan of 22 people – 11 children 11 adults! – London Portrait Photographer
Snow + snowman + poinsettia + reindeer pajamas + cheeky-gorgeous C and pretty-adorable F = the perfect Christmas shoot!
Elijah is 9 months old. He has spent 6 months of his life in hospital, 2 months in a hospice and 1 month at home.
And suddenly it was white…. Snow covered our far-from-picturesque side of town like a spotless blanket.
Who says kids are difficult to photograph? J and H exceeded all expectations. They did so well, they were true angels!
M and H were only sixteen weeks when these photos were taken. I have never met such a laid-back contented set of twins.
These boys sleep, dream, and breathe Star Wars! Well, perhaps not the baby yet, but judging from the headstands, jedi moves, and light sabre fights, it won’t be long before little babe joins the fun!
I’m interrupting my scheduled catch-up blogs with a mini-session of my kids I did just yesterday. I’ve recently swapped some gear for a 50mm 1.4 and a 35mm 1.8 and I’m trying them out. Here are the results.
Meet the newest addition to our church family. She is the girliest girl I have ever met. Who has ever met a 2 week-old baby who loves all things pink, vintage, and Cath Kidston?
It wasn’t long ago that I got to photograph these adorable twins when they were only 5 and 6 pound tiny little bundles!
For 2 years running, we’ve had a ‘triple’ birthday for our 3 autumn celebrants in the family.
Last autumn, I took my little boy to the amazing Princess Diana Memorial Park on a ‘mummy date’.
It’s about time I blogged again!
I have been asked recently by a number of people how I make my images “beautiful”… “A lot of thought and hours and hours of photoshop”, I reply. They laugh.
Autumn photoshoot – part one… the lovely Ankita and her little Yasmin…
My kids ADORE my mum, and she adores them. Whenever my mum comes, it’s guaranteed you will hears plenty of laughter in the house. For some reason, my mum makes them laugh. She has her own ways of entertaining them with her stories and jokes and they love it when she tries and teach them words in Cebuano. All my kids are quite shy and have been relatively clingy when they were little. But all three of them have immediately warmed to my mum – their Nanny, from day 1 … Continue reading My Mum and my kids
Some photos of the lovely Woods girls…
I have recently discovered Photoshop actions and textures and this photoshoot of my friend Cynthia and her family was my second attempt at experimenting with some of the actions and new textures that I have purchased.
This year we went camping for the first time as a family in our very own, very local Epping Forest. I decided to take the old D40 with the 55-200mm f4-5.6 lens in case things got nicked whilst at camp.
I have been learning more about post-processing nowadays, though still barely scratching the surface. Here are some recent photos using newly learned tricks.
