Callum, Megan & Oliver, Bitts Park family portraits, Carlisle

I love Bitts Park in Carlisle, its lovely all times of year and now that Autumn is here and the leaves are turning its a fantastic location for family portraits.

It was lovely to meet cousins Callum, Megan and Oliver and their families for a joint photo session. We had lots of fun running around, collecting conkers and sticks and finding wild flowers to pose in!

I love the natural family portraits where the kids are running around enjoying the fresh air – the smiles are infectious.

Sophie & Jennifer – Summer family portraits

I often head back to Sheffield (where I used to live) for family photo sessions throughout the year and the first weekend of the Summer Holidays was spent in the Botanical Gardens in Sheffield photographing lots of fantastic families.

Adorable sisters Sophie & Jennifer were so well behaved for their photos – there was lots of running around, cuddling and having fun!

These natural moments are definitely my favourite. Let me know if you would like an outdoor family photo shoot, there is no limit on the age of the children, I have even photographed newborn babies outside too!

Connie, Gina & family, Sheffield family photography

I headed to Sheffield recently (where I used to live) for a weekend of spring themed photo sessions in the beautiful Sheffield Botanical Gardens.

Its one of my favourite places in spring with the magnolia trees in bloom and hundreds of daffodils spread around.

It was a pleasure to see Connie, Gina and their family again, they are fantastic kids, running around tickling each other with feathers.

If you want to book in for an outdoor photo session contact me to arrange a date to suit you! I will be back in Sheffield throughout the year for mini photo sessions and am based in the Lake District which has lots of great opportunities for photographs!

Demi – Mother’s Day portraits

Demi wasn’t too keen on having her photographs taken but after a few cuddles from Mum and blowing some bubbles we managed a few smiles!

Bubbles guarantee smiles every time!

I love photographs of the bond between Mum & child – tickles, cuddles and kisses, Mother’s Day portraits are so special.

Contact me to book in a family portrait photo session – these can take place at home, on location or in my pop up studio in Fletchertown.

Skye, Mammy & Me mini portraits

I love a good Mother’s Day photo session and little Skye was an absolute star for her photos smiling away for us and showing off her rolling skills!

We had some fun with bubbles and then she showed me how she can put her foot into her mouth whilst on her back – excellent yoga skills!

I love the natural photos with the family too, the photos when you are all laughing and having fun are the best.

Happy Mother’s Day!!

Archie, Carlisle newborn photography

I think when I did Rachel’s pregnancy photo session I predicted she would have a boy but then I am having a run on baby boys being born!

It was lovely to meet little Archie for his newborn portraits – hes a teeny tiny little one under 7lbs and so adorable with his beautiful head of hair!

He was a little angel for his photos, I particularly like the images of the family together – there is something special about the bond you all share in those first few weeks and even if you are not feeling at your best its worthwhile getting photos of you with your baby – these are moments you will treasure forever!

I have a special offer on for Mother’s Day portraits – check out my facebook page for more details! xx

Archie, newborn portraits Drigg

It was lovely to meet Archie this week, hes a lovely little baby at just a week old. He is very well looked after by his big sisters who were keen for their photos with him too! They look adorable together, so cute!

Family portraits at home or on location outdoors are my favourite, I love the natural portraits of you all laughing together and I have been known to tickle to get those laughs going!

So cute – contact me if you would like some portraits of your family.

Lincoln & Tilly, family portraits, Carlisle

I love to photograph babies of all ages. As Tilly is a little older than a newborn at 10 weeks she is now smiling and holding up her head which is a great moment in time to photograph and can we just take a moment to appreciate that hair!! So amazing!

She was great for her portraits and then we took some of her and big brother Lincoln together too. I love doing these – so special.

My favourite though is natural unposed family portraits – its always the ones of you all laughing and enjoying your little ones that make me feel all warm and fuzzy inside!

Thanks for such a warm welcome, your little ones are adorable!

Lola & Heidi, family portraits Autumn

I’ve known the Parkin family for a while now so it was lovely to see them again for some up to date family portraits in Ecclesall Woods in Sheffield. Sisters Heidi and Lola are so cute together, very good at the poses!

We had fun with hiding, running and of course plenty of leaf throwing!

I love to photograph families outdoors, the kids can be free and run around and we have lots of fun, the Autumn sunshine is just the best!

Nova

What a beautiful name for a baby – little Nova! She is so adorable, very alert and strong already at 3 weeks old.

She was a little angel for her photos – even smiling for us! Her big brothers Riley and Bailey were on hand for cuddles and kisses too. We also had time for some family photos too, these are always great to do – to see a family grow and its clear Nova will be very loved and looked after by her big brothers!

I photograph newborn sessions in the comfort of your own home, I find baby is much more comfortable and you will feel much more relaxed than being in a studio environment.

Contact me to book in a newborn photo session. These are usually best in the first two weeks of baby being born but they can be done after that – Nova is proof that even a little older they are much more aware and even smiling in some cases!
