BABY PHOTOGRAPHER YORK | SAM

admin — Fri, 06 Jan 2012 18:11:22 +0000

Time flies by so fast, it’s hard to believe that I first photographed Sam as a three month old baby a year ago. He’s now walking and into everything, keeping his Mum and Grandma on their toes! His Mum brought him over for his third and final portrait from his ‘Watch Them Grow’ series on a lovely November day, and he enjoyed exploring my garden. He was a prefect little model – and the first portrait I’ve had in my own garden since moving back home from Newby Hall. I’ll be doing more of these, so I think plenty of gardening is on the agenda for this year. Best get hubby out there with the lawnmower!

Sam grew rather a lot last year:

BABY PHOTOGRAPHER YORKSHIRE | ISABELLA

admin — Mon, 18 Jul 2011 15:34:54 +0000

I know, I know. I’ve been awful at blogging since Isabella was born. OK, so I do kinda have an excuse – babies take up more time than you knew you had. She is sat on my lap right now just about to demand something or other. However I do have to admit to being darn lazy in this department. I have the photos but just haven’t posted them yet, there is always something else to do. And she grows so quickly that as soon as I have taken and edited a set of photos, it’s time to start again.

I won’t bore you with hundreds of photos, but here are a just a few of my favourites so far. Already looking back I can’t believe how much she’s changed. Photos are so important. My Mum said that you look at your baby every day, and they always look the same. Then, one day you wake up and they’re 18. It’s so true.

Some are snapshots taken on a phone, others are taken on my professional camera. All are very precious memories (WARNING: becoming a Mum makes you soppy).

I will blog again soon, honest! I have weddings, engagements and portraits to share. Watch this space!

BABY PHOTOGRAPHER YORKSHIRE | SAM

admin — Wed, 16 Feb 2011 14:17:32 +0000

How cute is Sam?! He came in with his yummy mummy for the first of his ‘Watch them Grow’ baby portrait sessions a little while ago and made a fine model!

I’m getting lots of practice with babies recently, and my little girl is due in just under 3 weeks, eek! I’m excited but still can’t quite imagine actually having a baby, despite my huge bump.

I’ll be on maternity leave until June but if you’re expecting a baby (or if a friend is – it’s a fab and unusual present) and are interested in the ‘Watch them Grow’ scheme please give me a call. It includes three mini portrait sessions for your baby during their first year, or you can swap a session for some bump portraits if you prefer. You then have a lovely collection of images as a keepsake of those precious and all too fleeting moments!

MATERNITY PHOTOGRAPHER YORKSHIRE | BUMP PHOTOGRAPHS

admin — Thu, 20 Jan 2011 20:52:37 +0000

I’m just posting a few maternity photographs of this lovely lady and her bump – and I’m very pleased to report that she is now a very proud mummy to a beautiful little girl!

If you’re interested in maternity photographs, please get in touch. Not everyone is as brave as this yummy mummy, if you’d rather cover up a bit more then don’t worry, I will be led by you on how much you dare to bare. Lot’s of mummies to be go for the ‘bump to babies’ package, which includes photographs of your bump and then two photography sessions once your little one arrives, usually when s/he is around a month old and again at six months.

I’m going to have some bump photographs done myself, I must admit I feel a bit fat and lumpy but I know I’ll regret it if I don’t! It will be lovely to have some photographs to show my little girl when she’s a bit bigger, and I’m sure in no time I will have forgotten what I was like with a bump…I may even miss it a little.

NEWBY HALL FAMILY PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHER YORKSHIRE | TAYLOR FAMILY

admin — Tue, 30 Nov 2010 12:59:25 +0000

These gorgeous girls came over for a portrait photography session a few weeks ago and were little angels! We got some lovely autumnal portraits and we’re planning another summer session next year so they can come back with their summer clothes and a tan. A lot of these portraits are being made into an album as a keepsake – in candy pink of course ;-)

If you’d like to book a family portrait photography session, I am running a special offer until the end of December. Portrait sessions usually cost £100, and products are then chosen at the viewing and paid for separately. For Christmas only, all portrait sessions will include £100 towards your frames, canvasses or albums, making the session itself complimentary! To book please call 01423 326875 or you can buy a portrait photography voucher online. Our portrait sessions take place in the beautiful grounds of Newby Hall, near Harrogate in Yorkshire, where the studio is based.

NEWBY HALL PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHER YORKSHIRE | BORCHARDT FAMILY

admin — Mon, 22 Nov 2010 16:38:07 +0000

I met the lovely Borchardt family at the Great Yorkshire Show, and they came for their portrait photography session a couple of weeks ago. The girls bought their teddy bears picnic with them, which made for fantastic photographs and helped them to relax at the beginning. They soon got in the swing of things and were very photogenic! They were then joined for a few photographs by their gorgeous brother.

PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHY NEWBY HALL YORKSHIRE | SUE, ELLIE AND ANGUS

admin — Thu, 16 Sep 2010 13:17:04 +0000

Sue, Ellie and Angus were great fun to photograph. They came to Newby Hall and we went outside into the grounds to capture some relaxed and natural portraits, with Angus chattering all the way through! They were very obliging and very photogenic, the perfect family!

Look at their gorgeous blue eyes and curly hair:

Their main final product is a montage for Sue’s office, looking a lot like the one below. A square frame with nine images is a perfect way of presenting a collection, and means you can have the best of both worlds with your favourite photographs included:

FAMILY PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHER YORKSHIRE | WOOD FAMILY

admin — Thu, 01 Jul 2010 17:31:19 +0000

Now that I based at Newby Hall near Harrogate I’m photographing more and more families and children – the gardens and grounds are perfect for family portraits. I loved photographing this family, the girls looked so pretty in their beautiful dresses and we had the most wonderful weather, although it was a bit hot! Mum had done a great job of co-ordinating the outfits and the whole family looked picture perfect. The girls knew how lovely they looked and were very good at posing for the camera ;-)

BABY PHOTOGRAPHER YORKSHIRE | FRANCIS

admin — Tue, 29 Jun 2010 13:01:35 +0000

Now that I have a little studio at Newby Hall, I am photographing more and more cute babies. Francis was a little star, he’s a very happy little chap and was quite prepared to be photographed! This is the first of his ‘Watch Them Grow’ sessions – in this scheme babies are photographed when they are a month or two old, then again at about 7 months when they can sit up, and lastly when they are around a year old. It’s great for me getting to know the babies and seeing how much they change, and Mum and Dad get a lasting reminder of their babies first year.

YORKSHIRE PHOTOGRAPHER | CUPCAKES GALORE!

admin — Tue, 27 Apr 2010 18:10:36 +0000

I was very excited to move into a brand new photography studio at Newby Hall on 1st March, and to celebrate invited lots of lovely people to join me for champagne and cupcakes! I’m very proud to say that I made them myself (and so far, noone has complained of food poisoning, but maybe they are just too polite…..)

Here is my cupcake station, complete with photography slideshow on my iMac:

I had my very own personalised cupcake flags:

Can you tell I have a sweet tooth? ;-)

Here are a couple more studio sneak peaks – full post and all will be revealed next week if you haven’t already visited!

Happy Tuesday everyone!
