Romilly and her friends arrived at the studio full of excitement and giggles. They mastered the sound system, laid out their clothes and coordinated with each other and rushed into hair and makeup. They first went for a fun teen look and in the second were transformed into elegent your ladies. It will certainly be a birthday they will remember for a long time. Teen makeover party Reading

For Amelia’s 11th Birthday her mum paid for her to have a makeover shoot…what a lucky girl. She was so please with the photos that they have sent the photos off to model agencies and it looks like Amelia had a blossoming career ahead of her. Well done Amelia. Teen makeover photoshoot

I first met Ruth and Scott as a newly engaged couple two years ago. Their wedding day was beautiful set in the picturesque town of Marlow at all Saints Church Marlow and then moving onto St Katherine’s Pamoor. Since then I have had the privilege of photographing another exciting key moment in their lives. The beautiful Evie. I first met little Evie when she was only 18 days old and have watched (and captured) her grown into a joyful, pretty little girl. Our latest shoot features evie at 6 months old, taken just before christmas last year. As a member of the B2B Baby Club Ruth, Scott and Evie will enjoy one more shoot with me when Evie turns one and can enjoy many more shoots at members rates until Evie is 3 years old. Evie was a star from the moment she was born, and these photos are just momentary pices of evidence of this special little girls venture into the big wide world.

Little Max arrived with proud parents Rob and Jade. This was their second shoot as part of their B2B club membership. Whilst exhausted Mum curled up on the sofa for a nap, Dad and I settled little Max for his first photo session. The photographs from this session were unbelieveable! I had such fun editing their photographs that reflected the growing bond between parent and child with a timeless grace.

Come and visit me. Lots of lovely christmas gift ideas on offer.

The Baldery Kids I found a gorgeous place to take this family for their portrait sitting. A leaf lined walk way through the woods leading to bearwood college. One of the joys of being a photographer Reading is that there are so beautiful places to take photographs. Chloe (7) was the perfect little model and so loving with towards her brother Sam (5) who just loved running around and wizzing up and down the park on his scooter. These photographs really embraced the autumnal atmosphere of the woods. It must be mu favourite time of year for photographing children. Beautiful colours, gorgeous low light, kiddys snuggled in hats and scarves throwing leaves what more could you ask for. They make great christmas presents too. Can’t wait to show the parents their photos!

Jamie, Lucy and Luke I was priveleged to meet three cheeky and adorable kids today. With such wild imaginations and explosive characters I had so much fun photographing these three children. They can prepared with the most fetching of outfits and brought their favourite toys with them. It was a really exciting and energentic shoot and I can’t wait to see how the photos came out!

The Edwards family portraits Today I spent the afternoon with three very sweet children. Grace (7) had won a portrait sitting and decided to bring her brother and sister (twins 12) with her. A beautiful October afternoon of portrait photographs in Laurel Park, Reading was the setting for a fun session of climbing trees, crossing streams and generally getting up to mischief. Photos to follow.

Eleanor and Guy’s Wedding 20th October 2011 A crisp October afternoon and the sun was glistening through the trees. Cliveden House is one of my favourite places for wedding photography as you are absolutely spoilt for choice! Eleanor looked an absolute vision in her vintage lace dress and much understated hair style and makeup. But his bride does not need all the fancies and frills, she was more beautiful than any glamorous hair do or fancy jewellery could fashion. A brief ceremony, followed by a short photo session, just enough to capture the couple in all their splendour. This couple simply wanted to enjoy their day surrounded by their friends and family, no fuss, no pretence, just a pure, sincere service and reception and then plenty of fun and laughter throughout the evening. An intimate and private wedding and I am honoured to be able to share the moments I had with them. A very special day for them both! Photographs to follow…stay tuned.
