The Ashridge Estate, close to Berkhamsted, Tring and Dunstable, is a very attractive place to visit with your family. Walks in the woodland, picnics on the grass or a cup of tea in the cafe – there’s always something to do. Our children like to climb on the giant fallen tree trunks and then eat icecreams .

This weekend I had the pleasure of meeting a beautiful young family at Ashridge – they wanted to get some family photos. At this time of the year, a location based shoot works really well. Children can run around with almost complete freedom and their parents can relax and enjoy the scenery. I worked from a distance, looking for natural, candid shots of the family – little Ethan and his cousin Harley were very cute and  a joy to photograph!

Here are some shots:

What beautiful weather we are having at the moment! It is a great time to be outside with family and friends making the most of it; football parties, bbqs, picnics and photo shoots.

I had the pleasure of photographing a lovely young lady, Sarah, over in the Ashridge estate. It was a warm, sunny morning and being a weekday, it was very peaceful. Here are some images from the shoot.

You may have guessed, Sarah is a musician! (http://www.saxjames.com/)

I popped out to see the bluebells on Beacon Road today. They’re almost in full blume and already attracting lots of attention. If you’d like to take advantage of this beautiful backdrop for some family or children’s photographs, please give me a call 01442 870005.

Part 1

On Saturday afternoon, I met a group of 15 for a photo shoot at the Ashridge estate. Thankfully the very gloomy morning had given way to a clearing sky! Once the group had arrived and our plan discussed, we went in search of a quiet piece of woodland with good colour and light.

Autumn is a wonderful time of the year for an outdoor / on-location, photo shoot. The vivid colours of the trees make the most amazing backdrops on which to have your portraits. No it’s not such fun when the rain is pooring, but on a dry, crisp day, the children can have lots of fun running around, kicking leaves and of course playing with sticks.

Here are a few shots taken at the woods in the Ashridge estate very recently.

Give me a call if you would like to go out, have some fun and to make some family portraits of your own! 01442 870005
