Happy Easter!! from Specialist Baby Photographer and Boudoir Makeover Photographer Melanie Woodward at One Life Studio.   Enjoy Those Chocolate Eggs!

Chloe’s 1st Birthday Photoshoot. Louise and Dan have been coming to me for their baby photography for 3 years now. This was their 5th baby photoshoot and it has been a privilege to be a part of this family’s lives. Despite moving further from each other and they are now in Reading and my studio (once in reading) is now in Eversley near Wokingham, they still make the journey to come and have me as their baby photographer. I have watched the children grow from cute little bouncing babies to beautiful young girls. Today was Chloe’s 1st Birthday photoshoot. We had so much fun blowing bubbles, smashing cakes, picking flowers and jumping around (and on the bed, naughty. lol) As a Baby photographer I try to capture the children’s personalities and make it an enjoyable experience that the children will never forget. I love how comfortable Lily is with me now I have photographed her throughout her development from baby to young lady.   It’s families like this and fun photography sessions like this that are the reasons why I love my job! It fills me with pride and happiness to know I have brought joy and so many lovely […]

Today I worked with a lovely couple from Think Smart Unlimited. Jane and Tim came to me as they were looking for a corporate headshot photographer near Reading. They originally hear about my company when I was promoting my family portrait services in Henley on Thames and took the opportunity to book a session in the studio. I think the photographs are perfect for the professionalism they require for their company image.

Had a fantastic family portrait sitting today with the lovely Jolly Family. Melissa brought her kids to the studio for a fun family session with the hope of buying some photographs as a gift for her mother. I met Melissa through her sister Amanda Jennings, an amazing author and now after many years of photographing her and her family a dear friend. I’ve only know Melissa and Amelie a short while and met Sam and Charlie on the day, but we instantly hit it off and the photographs are some of my favourite I’ve ever taken. The kids really seemed to be enjoying themselves and it really shows in their photographs. What a special birthday present for grandma and also some lovely memories for the Jolly family too.   to see more photos visit our Facebook page or click here  

Chloe came to the studio for a makeover photoshoot last week as an early christmas present from her mum. Chloe is hoping to pursue a career in modelling and wanted to get a model portfolio together. We had so much fun and shot over 800 images. Here are just a few of our favourites.

I know its been a while since my last post. Wedding season has been super busy for me this year and I’ve also been so fortunate with having a very busy portrait studio too. Its 1am and I’m still up editing a wedding I photographed at Hartsfield Manor earlier this month. I could not resist posting a few photographs from this amazing wedding. Jess and Chris finally tied the knot after many years and 3 beautiful children. But it was worth it to have their perfect day and having their children be a part of the service was so touching. Here’s just a couple of photos, but if you like them and would like to see more, watch this space and join my Facebook page.  

I met Kate at a school fair when we discussed having me as her baby photographer when her little girl arrived. Sure enough 6 months later can little baby Esme and Kate and Kevin brought their little bundle of joy to my new photography studio in Eversley for Esme’s Newborn Photoshoot. Esme was so calm, yet curious. Looking around at everything that was going on. An hour later we managed to get Esme to fall asleep. We got some beautiful photos with her eyes open, but for now it was these two stunning photos Kate and Kevin chose to have framed on the walls of their new home. I can’t wait to see the frame when it arrives. Especially the one on the suitcase which they have chosen to have as a focal point in their living room. It’s a beautiful photograph and looks like a piece of art, which I’m sure they will enjoy for many, many years to come. Baby Photographer Crowthorne

Claire and Mark’s wedding at the Elvetham Hotel was truly one to remember! It was Fabulous!!! Claire got ready in one of the Elvethams beautiful suites, before heading off in a stunning classic care to the gorgeous little church in Finchampstead. This was my first time as photographer for the an Elvetham wedding, but I’m quite used to new venues with my long distance wedding where I often only go there once in a life time. It is truly a magnificent back drop for wedding photos and both the church and the Elvetham Hotel are only 10 mins drive from my new photography studio in Eversley. Claire and Mark are a fun and bubbly couple, always laughing and having a good time and their wedding reflected their elegance, but also their cheeky personalities. They had two singing waiters who not only got the crowd signing along, but they also had them swinging their napkins, performing a conga and dancing around the room. Their laid back approach to the day kept everyone relaxed and in high spirits. What a lovely couple and a gorgeous little daughter. I hope to work with them again!   Wedding Photographer Finchampstead Church Wedding Photographer The […]

I met this adorable couple last year and they immediately liked my work and we really took to one another. I can’t believe how quickly the time has flown by and this weekend I will be their wedding photographer at Barkham Manor Farm after their ceremony at St Catherines on the Bearwood road (a stunning location!) It poured down with rain during their engagement shoot, so I’m keeping my fingers crossed for a sunny wedding day for them.   wedding photographer Barkham Manor Farm

I’m really looking forward to seeing Sarah and Matthew at St Nicholas’ Church,  Bookham and Hartsfield Manor, Betchworth. I’ve been recommended by Hartsfield Manor as their preferred wedding photographer Surrey for 6 years now and never get bored of visiting this stunning venue and their amazing and friendly staff.
