The Bennetts | Family Shoot

At the weekend I had the pleasure of spending a very crisp morning with the Bennett family. Leela is a local photographer, who originally contacted me as she needed some shots of herself for her website. The shoot eventually evolved into a family shoot with her husband Andrew and son Jasper, with some portraits of Leela thrown into the mix. It was a cold cold day, but in that lovely sunny and fresh way, and I thoroughly enjoyed hanging out with the Bennetts. It was such a pleasure meeting you all and I really hope you like your pictures! x

Alice | Family session

This, like the shoot with Jodie, wasn’t quite a ‘newborn’ shoot any more since Alice as well is already 10 weeks old. Usually I recommend newborn shoots to take place within the first 1-2 weeks purely because it’s easier for the lil’un. At only days old, rather than weeks, babies are not really that aware of what’s happening. Thus they don’t really mind that much playing the supermodel, unlike a bit older babies who are more aware that something is required of them but can’t understand what, which would make anyone a bit cranky (not to mention the stripping you nekkid and pointing a camera at you bit)! Louise and Matt certainly worked hard to get Alice to give me some absolutely adorable smiles, and boy was it well worth it. I don’t care what you say, you just can’t help but adore this little angel!

Jodie | Family session

Penny and Rob contacted me as they wanted to get some family portraits of the three of them with their daughter Jodie, and to get a record of this special time in their lives in general. At 10 weeks old Jodie wasn’t quite sure about the whole photo shoot malarkey, but it was still pretty impossible to take non-cute photos of this cutie – just look at those eyes! Thanks Penny and Rob for letting me take a peek into your family life, hopefully Jodie wasn’t too traumatised by the demands of the model lifestyle!
