Summer is here and it’s time for mini sessions!

Mini sessions are great fun. They’re also the perfect way to try out a family photo session if you’ve not had one before. It’s your chance for everyone to be in the photos – if you’re like my family one of you is always stuck behind the camera and never in the pics. Is that you?

If you’re worried about having your photo taken or how you’ll look – please don’t be. I’ll share lots of tips beforehand to help you get the most out of you mini session.

Personal Branding Photography is more than a headshot.

I can help you create a set of images that align with your values and your brand. Images you can use on social media, your website, in presentations and print media.

Personal branding photography won’t give you sanitised corporate headshots with a plain background. What you will get is images that show who you are, where you work, the tools of your trade and the colours and feel of your brand.

With Mother’s Day and Easter just around the corner, spring is a great time to bring your family together for a wonderful on-location family photo session.

Up until the end of May 2019 you can book the Spring Print Package for £250.00.

What do you do with the thousands of photos you take every year? Are they unloved, forgotten and filling up your phone?  

Here are five reasons why now is a good time to print your favourite family photos.

A family photo session is a great way to capture that magical period. It’s an opportunity to slow down and reconnect with each other.

It’s easy to get caught in the cycle of making too many resolutions, with most of them falling by the wayside within a few weeks. I have a small challenge for you when it comes to family photography. I want to encourage you to take more photos of your family this year.

I’d like to say a big THANK-YOU to everyone who asked me to photograph their family in 2018. Without exception it’s been great fun!

2018 also brought lots of new locations with families suggesting their favourite places. I love photographing somewhere new and many families put a huge effort into finding the right location for their photo session. Some places always standout, with stunning views or great light. What’s special about every location though, is that it means something to the family who chose it. Often it’s a walk or a location they’ve enjoyed many times and the familiarity is what makes it special.

Is it time to give your family a fun experience instead? If you’re still shopping for your family this Christmas and you want to be a bit more creative or you know your family don’t need any more “stuff”, why not treat them to an experience this year.

Wafaa is originally from Lebanon and she now lives in Wiltshire with her family and shares her passion for Lebanese cuisine and dancing through her business Dancing Flavours, creating wonderful food and dancing events across the southwest.  I met Wafaa through a local networking event and she asked if I’d photograph the preparations for an event this summer.

It’s great when a family suggest a new location for a photoshoot – it’s a special place for the family, the children are excited and relaxed (a great combination) and it’s a new location to keep me on my toes as a photographer!
