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.

Family portraits on the farm, Wigton

When the spring and summer finally arrive and believe me I know we are all ready for it! I tend to do a lot of photo sessions outdoors where possible.

Extended family photo sessions with cousins are a lot of fun too so it was fab to head to the kids grandparent’s farm near Wigton for this photo session. With plenty of space to roam free and cows to say hello to it was lots of fun.

Running up and down the tracks framed by long grass and lovely trees is fantastic fun for kids, afterwards it was time for a well deserved ice cream!

Roll on summertime!

Finn & Poppy – Dodd Wood Autumn portraits

What’s your favourite time of the year? Mine has to be Autumn, I love those lovely sunny days where the light is bouncing off the leaves and you can have fun with leaf fights!

Dodd Wood on the outskirts of Keswick is fantastic, there are lots of little walks to go on and a fab stream running through as well.

It was lovely to see Finn and Poppy again for some up to date Autumnal photos in the forest. Both were fantastic at posing, hiding behind trees and of course throwing lots of leaves!

I love the natural photos too of everyone laughing and having fun, that’s why outdoors portraits are so fab.

Contact me if you would love to book a winter portrait session for your family.

Christmas Portraits Day

I had a fantastic time last weekend with my Christmas mini portraits in Fletchertown in my pop up studio near Wigton. It was lovely to see families I have already met this year and see their little ones growing and to meet new families too.

We had a lot of fun with snowballs, my pretend snow and of course all the Christmas props and hats!

Those that were on the nice list got chocolate coins and a present from Santa too!

I love this time of year, such a great way to create gifts for your family with a festive photo shoot.

Fletchertown mini summer portraits

Our little village has the most perfect little places for photo sessions. In the summer time the fields were full of little patches of long grass and buttercups, great for running around and hiding in.

I love doing family photo sessions outside, so much better for the kids to have a chance to run around and gather those natural smiles rather than the forced posing for the camera, some of my favourite images are the ones where the kids are running towards me. In fact an outdoors photo session is a great workout for me!

With the threat of coronavirus hanging over us all year being outdoors using my zoom lens has meant that I can keep social distance guidelines whilst still having a fun photo session.

Please give me a shout if you would like to book in a family photo session, if you don’t want to be outdoors in the winter why not buy a voucher for your family for a photo session next year in the spring? Perfect Christmas pressie!
