Yeah, yeah, I know you hear me say that all the time (and, by the way, what about the photography?) Well, the photography is, of course, crucial – so much so that it’s a given really. If we couldn’t take lovely images then we wouldn’t have a business. But we can and so we have.

But, and here’s the thing, it’s the process of capturing the images that makes it the beautiful job that it is.

Of course, like all photographers, I do love a little Photoshop and I adore the finishing touches that can be brought to your images using it but, frankly, that’s not what makes this the coolest job in the world. Yup. It’s definitely you – our clients!

Which brings me neatly to this particular session with Jennifer and Isibel. We’ve photographed Jennifer before with Torston – yet another fantastic session I might add – and it’s a real joy that she’s come back with their daughter Isibel for one of our First Year’s Baby packages. A lovely gentle session and a beautiful baby of course! And with awesome hair like this, who couldn’t have pictures that they’d treasure for a lifetime?

Let us know what you think

Take care
Cheers

This is true of Shelley and Alex whose wedding we photographed a couple of years ago – a fantastic wedding at Whittlebury Manor near Silverstone – and who have now come back with their baby daughter!

Shelley and Alex have bought a package that we’ve been slowly piecing together over the past year or two: our one-year baby package. This package is designed for new parents (or new parents-to-be) so they can have a series of sessions over a year to capture possibly the most wonderful period in a new life. Wonderful in spite of the nappies, prams, muslin-squares, bottles, no sleep, no money, more nappies and even less sleep of course. Ah, but I reminisce.

Anyway, when myself and Sarah sat down and looked at the photos we had of the first year of each of our kids, we couldn’t believe how much they changed in those first magical 12 months. Quite literally they go from a standing (well, not quite standing) start to chattering, squawking, laughing, puking little money-pits who you instantly love more than anything you’ve ever loved in your life. Bizarre. To be fair, they carry on developing (particularly in the cost-centre department) at a ridiculous rate but that doesn’t change the fact that that first year, once you’ve got over the shock, is pretty spectacular! And it’s absolutely magic!

And it’s the photos from that life-shattering period (as you might imagine, we do have quite a few!) that are some of the most wonderful to look back at. So we created a package to do just that. 12 months. 3 sessions. Tons of pictures. Simple.

And I’m chuffed to bits that some of our clients – particularly clients like Shelley and Alex – are having families and coming to create some more priceless images. Brilliant!
