I had a lovely shoot with Maria, Luke and their lovely children this weekend at the Ashridge Estate. The backdrop of bluebells and extensive woodland provided a perfect environment for a family day out and a photoshoot 
Yesterday I had a lovely family bluebell shoot at Ashridge. It was gran’s birthday and she was joined by her family for a shoot and then a celebratory picnic. The grandchildren had lots of fun in the woods – they were chasing each other and balancing on logs and watching the sheep with their new lambs.
If you’d like to join me for a bluebell shoot, I’ve got a few appointments still available for this Saturday and bank holiday Monday (and also for the weekend of The Wedding – 30th/31st April). Please give me a call on 01442 870005.
Last year the bluebells at the Ashridge estate were at their best from early May and this year, a naturalist from National Trust said they are expected to be early due to weather conditions (read here). Well guess what, they are here already!!!! (I’ve just been to see them)
I will be running family portrait sessions amongst the bluebells, they will be 30 minutes long and will be at a great price, just £25!
The first date is this weekend, Sunday 17th April (the weather is forecast to be good).
Please give me a call to book your portrait session, 01442 870005.
See you in the Bluebells
This weekend I met a lovely family over at the Ashridge estate. It was a beautiful afternoon with the sun was punching its way through some thin high clouds. Ashridge was busy as you would expect on a sunny Sunday afternoon with the ice-cream van having a long queue of customers waiting to buy their treats.
Helen and Rob played with their two boys, I gave just a little direction and tried to keep things moving. In the woods, Ethan needed no encouragement to throw leaves in to the air, leaves over his little brother and then over his mum and dad!
Here are a few images from the shoot:
Hayley and Stephen recently had a maternity shoot with me and guess what …
Congratulations on the birth of Joseph!
When he was just five days old, I had the pleasure of meeting the little lad. He is so cute and cuddly. Hayley and Stephen had beaming smiles and were very proud of their new son!
Here’s a small selection of Joseph’s newborn photoshoot (he’s on my Baby’s First Year programme … so you will see him again soon).
Rachel and Mike brought their two children Claire and Jonathan to the studio for a portrait session last weekend. They were very relaxed and a pleasure to work with!
Russell and Sheena dropped by the studio with their two handsome young boys last weekend. Sam and Max were fun to shoot and very helpful in the studio – Sam tickled his big brothers toes for me and Max helped with the flash meter.
Sarah and Julian brought their two boys to the studio for a family portrait. With the assistance of Eeyore (who does a few silly things, like sitting on my head, waving his ears), James and Matthew had a few laughs and giggles
Harriet and John visited the studio this weekend with their two children. George and Esme were very sweet and lots of fun!
Lucy and Matt brought their adorable baby daughter to the studio for a portrait shoot. Lucy was very organised and brought along a few images that she liked so that I could see the style she wanted!
