The best days of your life - recorded
These kind of shoots will probably always be my favourite!
As a mother of a teenager, plus a rapidly growing eight year old,I know how quickly childhood passes.
It is something quite special to work with and capture memories for a family, whether in their home, a local play spot or one of our beautiful local open spaces.
Maternity shoots with just the couple ( plus bump!) come under this category too.
Current favourite locations are Richmond Terrace Gardens, the riverside around Hampton Court and Canizarro Park in Wimbledon.
But I am certainly up for discovering somewhere new.
If there is a particular place which means a lot to your family, just let me know.
It's your shoot, after all.
Prices and packages
Story telling sessions at home
Family at home shoots have become very popular.
Photo shoots booked to take place at your home(indoors or out)offer a very meaningful collection of images.
I love to capture the precious details,which are part of your everyday life,but which may well be forgotten in five ( or forty!) years time
I would normally spend up to two hours with a family in this capacity.
Twenty five of your best images chosen for you ( digitals )
Outdoor family shoots
These are what I'm probably known best for!
I have photographed thousands of local families in this relaxed, fun and memorable way over the last eight years..
I am no longer offering mini or full shoots - just one simple package ( though you can add on extra time/images for extended families if you wish )
The shoots last around forty five minutes.
Ten edited image are included in this package, selected by yourselves from an online gallery.
Additional digital Images
Sometimes it's worth spending just a little extra to get a truly special collection of images to record the fabulous time you all had during your outdoor family shoot!
If you are undecided between session types,this add on could be a good option for you.
Mounted prints
If you're going to hire a photographer to take your photos,why not go the whole hog and include professional prints in a beautiful white mount?
They really do mean something this way.
I offer 8 x 6 and 12 x 8 mounted prints to complete and enhance your experience.
Further details
A deposit of ninety five pounds is required to secure any of the sessions.
The remainder of the balance is due on the day of the shoot.
Images are usually delivered as a view and choose gallery via email around two weeks later.
At especially busy times, this could be extended to three weeks.
I will need your phone number for a brief consultation ahead of your session(just to get a feel for your family, discuss clothing options, the weather forecast etc)
"What happens if.....?"
If the weather is bad on the day of your scheduled shoot,or a member of the family is unwell we will postpone to the next available date and time for all of us.
If your child suddenly gets a bruise or blemish prior to the session(this does happen quite a lot!Ha) Just let me know.
Nine out of ten times I can magically erase it during the editing process!
And if your children don't play along ?
Well it's my job to get them on side, isn't it?!
"Spirited" kiddies are definitely my thing!
