Glynn family – Holiday photographs

I do a lot of photo sessions in the summertime on location in the Lakes so it was a nice change to visit a family who are holidaying in the Lakes for New Years.

Jane and her extended family were staying at Greenwood Holiday cottage in Wigton where I do a special offer for guests for photo sessions.

It was an icy but bright morning for their portraits, we started off inside by the Christmas tree which was lovely before we headed out into the gardens.

We had lots of fun with the family practising cool and crazy walks and huddling up for warmth. Jane’s grandchildren were so adorable hiding and running around and sharing chocolate!

Contact me if you are planning a Lake District holiday and would like some holiday portraits.

Vibhuti – maternity portraits

Happy New Year all!

Vibhuti contacted me around her 34th week into her pregnancy for some photos. She had some great ideas for poses and outfits, even arriving with a suitcase of clothes!

I do maternity portraits in my studio in Fletchertown near Aspatria. My studio space has some outdoor areas nearby with trees and flowers. Although in the winter time there were no flowers about!

Fortunately we improvised with some leaves and found some lovely red berries on a bush too which was very Christmassy!

Vibhuti was brave enough to go without a coat in the winter weather – full props to you!

Indoors we tested out a selection of dresses including a few gowns that I own too. A great way to dress up and celebrate your new arrival!

Contact me to book in your own maternity session, these usually take place around 34-36 weeks.

Aria, Delilah & Robbie – summertime portraits

I have known Delilah since she was tiny so it was lovely to see their family grow again with the addition of little baby Robbie, a sibling for Aria and Delilah.

We did their photo session outside in Fletchertown in the fields of wild flowers and grasses.

We had fun with the kids lying down on a blanket and holding flowers and running around. I always love outdoors photos, especially when the weather is finally looking better!

Let me know if you would like some up to date family portraits in the summertime long grasses of Fletchertown.

Baby Fraser

It wasn’t too long ago that I was photographing little Fergus as a baby so to meet his new little baby brother Fraser was lovely.

Little Fraser was a superstar for his photos although he didn’t want to sleep and Fergus was so good with his brother kissing him on the head and was very interested in the little baby bed for him!

The family photos are always my favourite as it’s so nice to see everyone cuddled together with their new arrival.

If you are expecting a baby in the Autumn let me know, you can book in for a newborn session around your due date.

Ava – cake smash

The last time I saw Ava she was a little baby, she was just about to turn 1 when she popped into the studio with her Mum and Dad for her cake smash.

She wasn’t too keen to smile at the beginning but looked adorable in her party outfit! We did lots of singing and clapping to get some smiles.

After a bit of fun it was time to bring out the cake, Ava was very keen to just sample the buttercream but eventually with some help from Dad she was eating big chunks of cake and putting her feet in it!

After the cake smash we got clean with a bathtub full of bubbles. Ava had great fun splashing around.

Cake smashes are so much fun and a great way of capturing your little one’s first birthday!

Contact me for more details and how to book in.

Alex – maternity portraits

Alex and her partner came into the studio for some portraits before their little one arrived.

I usually do maternity sessions around 36 weeks when you have a big bump but not too late that you are about to go into labour!

Alex brought some outfits with her for photos as well as using some of my maternity gowns. As the weather was nice too we managed to head outside for some photos too.

Its always lovely to do photos outside, especially when the scenery near the studio is so lovely.

Fletchertown where my studio is based is situated just off the A595 near Wigton & Aspatria. The ideal location for photos. Maternity portraits are lovely and a great way of celebrating your pregnancy.

Alex and Tim came back when their baby was born too – I have special offers for photo sessions when you book maternity and newborn portraits together, drop me a message for more information

Baby Ethan – newborn photos

Baby Ethan was absolutely adorable and teeny tiny. He was a premature baby and so cute!

He was a little star for his photos, sleeping the majority of the time. His family brought in their pet dog too for some photos who was very well behaved for his photos. We managed with the help of some treats to get some lovely photos of them both together.

We also had time for photos with parents too, love these cute squishy newborn cuddle photos!

If you are expecting a baby soon, drop me a message to book in a newborn photo session.

Niamh & Myla – Fletchertown portraits

The little fields and orchard’s surrounding my studio space in Fletchertown (near Wigton) are amazing in the summertime with long grasses and wild flowers.

I often run mini photo sessions for families, thirty minute portraits – ideal for kids with short attention spans!

Niamh and Myla looked so cute and had fun in the flowers, picking apples in the orchard and giving each other cuddles.

We had chance for photos with their parents too, I love how kids have the freedom to run around, makes for lovely natural photos.

Contact me if you would like to hear about summertime photo sessions in Fletchertown.

Baby Sapphire & family

Newborn portraits are one of my favourite kind of photo sessions, There is nothing more beautiful than a little squidge of a baby and the feeling of love shared with all the family.

Little Sapphire was very well behaved for her photos. Her parents brought along some props with little teddies and soft toys.

After photos of Sapphire on her own we did some photos with her parents too. I love these snuggled up photos with their little bundle. So cute!

If you are expecting a baby this year and would like some photos, drop me a message!

Clare – maternity portraits

Claire was 36 weeks pregnant when she visited the studio with her family for some portraits.

She brought along baby’s big sister to the photo session too who really enjoyed having her photo taken, as long as it was her on her own! We had fun with props like little teddys and scan photos too.

Claire brought along a selection of dresses which she looked amazing in.

Can’t wait to see the new arrival soon!
