Farm Fantastic!

On a mega busy Saturday this was the fourth of seven photo shoots at Down Hatherley Farm with the very entertaining Will and Beth! These kids are cousins to the Hulberts, who I've photographed previously on their farm over in Swindon Village. Click here to view the photos from that photo shoot.

I do love farms, they make great backdrops for photos. I'm very envious of all those who are lucky enough to live and work on one. I've dreams to own my own small holding one day. For now though, I'll have to make do with just taking photos!

Doodles of fun in Dursley!

Last Sunday I had three photo shoots and here's the first - a 60 minute location shoot in Dursley with Vicky and her husband Tim and their two boys, Elija and Milo. I had a great time with this lovely family in their local park. Just good old fashioned fun! We scaled the climbing frame, crawled through giant tractor tyres and whizzed down slides!

The Smiths!

This was a family that know how to have fun! Mum and Dad, (Tim and Helen) almost put the youngsters to shame with their zest for all things crazy! But their four children, Lily, Hannah, Toby and Jake were more than a match for them!

They booked me for a 60 minute location shoot at the holiday home they were staying at, (Cotswold Park Barns). Apart from Lily, their eldest and who was getting married the following week in Hampshire, the rest of the family live in Hong Kong. It's rare to get them all in the same place at the same time and so they wanted to update the family photo album. 

It was fantastic fun and working with slightly older children always poses me with a new challenge of thinking up ways to get the best out of each character! They were on the same fun and crazy wave length as me and together, we came up with some great ideas !

I hope you like the pictures. If you would like to book something similar then please get in touch using my contact page or give me a call on 07983 465414. I'd love to hear from you!

Nicole, James and Oscar

Nicole contacted me a few weeks ago to ask if I could come back to her stables in Foxcote, Gloucestershire, to do a family portrait photography session with her husband and 4 year old son, Oscar. 

I was last there in April 2014 for one of Mouse About Town's very first photo shoots, follow this link to view the pictures from that photo shoot:

It was great to get back there again, but instead of focusing the photo shoot on the stables setting, this time we took a walk up to the fields that surround it. I clearly don't get out in the Cotswolds enough; it was majestical! I came home that evening proclaiming that I wanted to move to the country, (my husband, having heard this a million times, simply rolled his eyes!)

If you are thinking of having a family portrait photo session done then please get in touch using my contact page or give me a call on 07983 465414. My prices start from just £50 and includes all digital files, so no hidden extras!

Family Photo Shoot

Last Tuesday, Anna Burch asked me to her house in Charlton Kings to take some photos of her sister, Alex, and her young family, who are currently visiting the UK for the Summer. 

Much fun was spent playing peek-a-boo in Anna's garden shed, which reminded me of Dr Who's Tardis, and hide and seek, where I would run and hide and the kids would try and find me! We got some great, very candid shots of the family. 

I've done a couple of photo shoots for Anna before. Her son, Etie, is very keen on horse riding and last Autumn I photographed a farewell party for his beloved pony, Leo, who was going back to his owners in Surrey after an enjoyable Summer loan spent in the Cotswolds!

Photo Shoot @ Leckhampton Hill

Last weekend was a busy one for Mrs Mouse. I had a wedding to photograph on the Saturday then back to back location and studio shoots on the Sunday. This one was with Sian, her brother and their families and children - Olly, Imogen, Lucy and Ellen. 

It was a 30 minute shoot and we all had great fun. If you would like to book something similar then drop me a line using my contact page or give me a call on 07983 465414.

Thanks!


Sid

Here are a selection of images from a photo shoot I did for Jane, Sid and her family last Sunday. The shoot took place at Jane's parent's house, near Stroud, in a field at the back of their garden where Jane and her husband actually got married. It has great sentimental meaning to them.

The shoot lasted for 30 minutes, but as always, I gave them a bit of extra time. If you would like to book something similar then please get in touch using my contact page or give me a call on 07983 465414.

Thanks! 

Kellie Thomas

This was the second photo shoot I've done for Kellie, Chris and their 3 fab children, Paige, Hayley-Ann and Jackson.

Kellie asked me along this time to photograph Jackson in particular. It was his birthday a few days later and she wanted his nearly two's captured on camera!

As usual the girls tried to photo bomb every picture, which was hilarious, and Hayley-Ann's broken arm didn't seem to impede her much! 

Kellie booked a 60 minute photo shoot, which costs £150 and included all of the high resolution jpeg files. If you would like to book something similar please get in touch using my contact page or give me a call on 07983 465414.
