ON LOCATION PHOTOGRAPHY Spring time is my favourite moment of the year - the long winter nights are over and life is busting out all over with plants coming into bloom and springtime bulbs. For springtime shoots you really want to be wearing either layered clothes or have some quick changes of outfit. Spring can flip from warm to cold so easily. So bring gorgeous springtime scarves and cardigans simply in case. For colours you
Three Generation Portrait January has turned out to be an incredibly busy month for the studio, with the full launch of our new commercial video services and the expansion of the aerial drone services too... so it was a pleasure to get back to some studio photography with this lovely family. Mum bought Grandma a portrait photography shoot for Christmas to capture the three generations of these beautiful woman, Grandma, Mum and Twin Grandchildren. It was
We have lots of different family groups that come and visit our studio and this time, our couple wanted to spend some time capturing images of them with their grandchildren which is just a brilliant idea.

This young man was one of our latest visitors for his second Joey Club session and as you can see, he loved the attention from his mum and dad! He was an absolute star in the studio and we look forward to seeing him around his first birthday for his last session.

You know, particularly when you become parents, your camera gets a lot of use. Special occasions and every day outings are all recorded in equal measure and you're going to treasure all these photos of your son or daughter growing up.

Plus, this is the time that you're most likely to book into a portrait studio to get
With newborn babies, there really is no such thing as them being too small to bring into the studio. In fact there are some stunning images that you it is possible to create in their first two weeks of life that you will never get the chance to do again as they grow and develop.

Well we are finally all settled into our new portrait studio - same building, just a different floor! Upstairs at our studio in Crawley Down, we have whole raft of exciting new things to offer our customers with lots more news to come shortly on that front. However, in the meantime, here is my favourite pictures from one of my first sessions in the new portrait studio. She is just stunning with one of the cheekiest smiles I've ever seen,
