The Bucklands

The Buckland family bought their photo shoot as a gift to celebrate their parents 50th wedding anniversary. None of them are local but were all staying in Cheltenham for the weekend as part of the celebrations. 

They booked 30 minutes but we went over time slightly as there were quite a few of them and they wanted particular group photos as well as more natural ones. I never mind if things overrun, so long as I don't have another shoot to get to of course! It's better to get the shots than not!  

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!

Ali, George, Oliver & James

This is the second photo shoot I've done for Ali now. Our first photography session was done in Pittville Park when Mouse About Town was just starting out! Click here to view the pictures from it.

For their second shoot they left it to me to choose the location. I live opposite Park Campus in Tivoli and regularly take my own children there. It's Cheltenham's hidden gem  and absolutely great for photos. There's an enormous lake full of very hungry ducks, (they although they were scarce during our photo shoot) and oodles of beautiful specimen trees. You can pretty much guarantee to be the only people in it which makes for nice empty backgrounds free from cars, buildings and people.  

As usual, the photo shoot was full on fun right from the start! The boys loved playing hide and seek with me; Oliver would run off to hide with George leaving me to count while taking photos of James and Ali! There were scary dinosaur faces and even scarier roars, (well done George!) waving at planes as they flew over head, the odd brotherly cuddle, (got to be quick to catch it!) and a bit of peek a boo!

I hope you like the pictures!

Ethan & Oscar

Saturday afternoon was spent with this pair of very mischievous brothers! Ethan and Oscar had a great time at Park Campus, playing hide and seek, 'Gruffalo' hunting, umbrella fighting and jumping around on fallen logs.
