Mothers day in the UK is on Sunday 19th March and I’ve been thinking of the perfect gift to say thank you. There are often no words to express how you feel about someone but a picture as they say speaks a thousand words. To have a portrait session just for you with your baby, child or grandchild is a truly unique experience with the added value of a stunning picture to treasure forever.
I know this might sound “cliche” but it is true. There is nothing I treasure more greatly than the photographs with my mother and with my children. I know they will feel the same. I also feel that a professional family photoshoot offers more than the lasting photographs it produces. The day of the photoshoot itself provides a wonderful memory of an intimate time shared together. I love to create fun portraits that reflect the people I am photographing.
This is a special portrait to me as I have photographed this little girl since before she was born! To explain this more clearly I photographed her mothers pregnancy and then her newborn photographs followed by 6 month baby photographs and to this gorgeous shot at just over one year. Her grandmother has been there every step of the way and at every photoshoot I have done with them. Their bond is so strong and precious.
Toddler Photography Sessions
As is often the case with my toddler photography sessions, the photoshoot itself was very active. I arrived at their home in Brockley, South East London and set up my portable studio in a corner of their home.
We then did lots of playing and lots of singing! I know all the songs! With making the photoshoot fun and relaxed I find children naturally come into the studio area. I also love to take beautiful portraits with family members and there are always stages of the photoshoots when they are happy to be picked up and hugged. These are the moments I grab! For this one she was intrigued with a beautiful dried allium so this also became part of the photograph. Her mother is actually an incredible gardener. Their home and garden are filled with the most amazing plants I have ever seen. Making this a perfect addition to the photograph with her Grandmother.
