Freddy and Wren. Baby portraits.

Wren and Freddy.

Camilla and Annabel are friends and both came into the studio on the same day to have shots with their babies. First is Annabel and Freddy followed by Camilla and Wren. i don't do many baby shoots but these were so much fun and Wren was such a super happy bouncy baby. Freddy was old enough to be a bit overwhelmed by it all but with the help of some bubbles we got the shots we wanted in the end!

Sara and family. Summer 2017

Family portrait session....

I love getting asked to do family shoots, I don't advertise it as part of my remit so don't take them on very often but I'm going to change that soon. The day with Sara and her family is a good reason why - relaxed, informal, fun and fantastic hosts. We spent a couple of hours in their beautiful garden in Suffolk in the sunshine and here are some of the results:

Caswell

I've been working with bands and artists a lot recently which is fine by me as I love the freedom it gives us to be more creative and fulfil certain looks. Caswell is amazing to photograph, always a pleasure and with a strong vision, and a talented songwriter too. 

See some of the shots as they were intended to be used plus have a listen to her music here:
