My Birthday Buddy {Family photographers in Twickenham & Richmond}

Before every photo shoot, I send a little questionnaire to the family asking for some information about everybody. It's not at all unusual to find out that the youngest member(s) can be a little shy around strangers. I am prepared for this, and my approach is always gentle and playful before I bring out my big camera. It was no surprise to learn then, that this gorgeous, blue-eyed, girl might be a little coy around me. Boy were we wrong!

On arrival at the family's beautiful home in Twickenham, I was practically pounced on before I could  get through the door! She greeted me as if I was a long lost friend which was the loveliest feeling. It was the beginning of a really fun afternoon (despite having to hide in the bathroom for a while because I was getting a little too much attention!)

Half-way during the shoot, I discovered that we actually share the same birthday. Maybe we have some special birthday-buddy-bond - or maybe it's because I'm just a big kid myself ;) Anyway, here are just a few of the photographs from our fun afternoon together.

First Moments {London newborn and baby photographers}

This beautiful newborn boy was just three weeks old when I photographed him at home with his parents. Looking back at the photographs, I am reminded of the total and utter love that I was so privileged to witness. What an honour it is to be present at such a special time in a new family's life.

It may come as quite a surprise, but I find photographing newborns very calming and relaxing. At a newborn session I have to totally let go and allow the baby to dictate the flow of the shoot. I am merely a bystander, a fly on the wall, there to document the simple moments in a pure and honest way: a first sneeze, a yawn that leads to a sleep only babies are capable of and, of course, the helpless cries that are soothed only by milk. I'm there to capture it all.

Time may pass and the baby will soon grown into a boy, but these photographs, and the memories that they will bring back, will live on over the years - that is why I love what I do with all my heart.

Sisters {London Family Photographers}

As you can see, I had a whale of a time with these two, gorgeous, little sisters. Despite it being a pretty hot day, they both had bundles of energy and I just loved photographing them in their beautiful London home. The girl's really lead the way and it was a real joy to capture them doing what they do best - having fun! Here's just a little bit of what we got up to on this family lifestyle photo shoot.
