Autumn Family Lifestyle shoot

I often run mini-lifestyle sessions in Autumn for clients wanting to get an update of images of their children.  The sessions are much shorter than the full lifestyle shoot but can work well for those who are looking for a great Christmas gift.  This session was bought for Sharon and Bobby as a Christmas present and they were able to enjoy a lovely woodland shoot and select 4 great images to be printed.

Their daughter Katie has modelled for me before and so it was lovely this time to be able to do a shoot of the whole family together.

Now spring is here its a lovely time of year to think about a lifestyle shoot for your family.  I am currently taking bookings for weekday and weekend shoots.  With the bluebell season approaching followed by the Summer and Autumn months why not give me a call to discuss planning a shoot?  Together we can discuss locations, outfits and season to create the best portraits of your family and which of my gorgeous products are going to look to amazing when presenting these images to hang in your home.
