Beautiful chidren....beautiful words.....

I had the pleasure a month ago to photograph a family portrait in Bristol for Martin & Leanne & their four gorgeous children, Jade, Kayleigh, Jasmine & Max. As Max was 6 months old Leanne & Martin wanted to document this important stage in his development & I suggested to her that it was a perfect opportunity to capture the whole family.

They decided to purchase a hi resolution DVD from me so that they were able to print off pictures for themselves and their family and this was her recent e-mail to me:

"Venetia,
Just to let you know I received my disc this morning........they are absolutely FANTASTIC, I could cry. I can't stop looking at them. You really captured all of thier personalities......I am so pleased I chose you to do the photos and if the wedding ones turn out like them, well let's say I will be more than over the moon.
Thank you so much again,
Leanne"

She was so pleased with the results of the family portrait that she has asked me to photograph Martin & her destination wedding in Cyprus later this year...I can't wait to get some more pictures of their beautiful children in natural light!

Here are a few pictures from the family portrait:

The girls hanging out.....





It's important when children to make them feel at ease & let them have some fun....this makes their personalities shine through.....we had such fun this afternoon.



A beautiful baby portrait of the main man......





Whilst we were there I suggest we do some individual portraits of each of the girls too.....







All the children together will make a lovely present for their grandparents.....



Martin & Leanne looking proud......



The whole family....



It was a wondeful, fun afternoon guys & I can't wait do your destination wedding photography in Cyprus!!

A very near miss....!!

A couple of months ago I had the pleasure to do a pregnancy portrait for Emma & Tom. Emma booked her pregnancy photoshoot quite late & only had a couple of weeks until her due date when we did our session in the studio. We got some beautiful pictures and they left promising to let me know when their bundle of joy arrived. We all thought it might be a few weeks, as many first babies are late, but the very next day there were rumblings afoot and gorgeous William was born on Valentines Day! Wow......that was a close call!! Here are a few pictures of their beautiful new addition.....











Although newborn babies can be photographed in the studio I prefer to photograph young babies in the comfort of your own home using natural light. This ensures eveyone is as relaxed as possible & I dedicate as much time as is needed, stopping for as many feeds & nappy changes as is necessary! Contact me for more information.

Wonderful day.....

Yesterday was fantastic.....I had the pleasure to shoot 3 family portraits.

I started off with Sim & Lauren, a beautiful mum and daughter whom were both really happy to play up for the camera and have some fun.

Next were 6 of the most well-behaved and well dressed children, all in co-ordinating outfits; Carmelo, Dominico, Dominco, Antonella, Antonella & Oriana. No...no spelling mistakes, four of them shared two names...you can image how hillarious it was trying to instruct each one of them where to sit!

Last but by no means least were Paul, Lindsey and the lovely Leah. Lindsey was insistent she wasn't photogenic but as you can see from these pictures (the blond baby) she so is.

I'll have such fun going through the pictures and hope they love them all.
