Family Fun

I recently met up with Carla and her lovely family in Pittville Park for some pictures of them altogether. The children had a blast running around, climbing trees and playing in the band stand. The parents all enjoyed themselves too! Below are just a few highlights from the shoot.

Oliver

I first met Oliver two years so when he came for a cake smash at my Cheltenham photography studio. It was great to catch up with him again and see how much he had changed! He was a real cheeky chap during the photo shoot and certainly kept Mum and Dad on their toes!

Leo & Charlotte

A few weeks ago I was in Pittville Park with six year old Leo, three year old Charlotte and their Nanny and Poppy. The children's grandparents were visiting the UK from France and their own daughter had bought them a gift voucher.

We had a super time splashing around in the poppies, which were simply stunning. The children in particular were delighted to wade through them! Here are just a few highlights and although I say ten digital images are included in the price of the shoot, you can see from the ones below that I often give plenty more.

Alexa & Cody

One of my first photo shoots for 2017 was in Pittville Park with gorgeous Alexa and her cute pooch Cody! Her Dad booked the shoot as the photos were to be a surprise for her Mum's birthday.

I suggested we do it later in the day to avoid the usual crowds of people that flock to Pittville and it paid off: we had the park almost to ourselves. We spent a rather enjoyable 30 minutes chasing after Cody and playing among the trees. Alexa's favourite moment was being given the bumps on her Daddy's shoulders! Love the pics below.

A Combo Park Shoot

One of my last photo shoots for 2016 was in Pittville Park with friends Eric and Charlie and Richard and Anita with their children: Phoebe, Edie, Ely and Jacob. It was an hour long combo shoot on a pretty cold morning. It didn't deter any of us though. We played football, which proved quite tricky with camera in hand, balancing on tree trunks, jumping around, chucking leaves and generally having lots of fun!

A mini park shoot is normally 30 minutes long and costs £50, it includes around 10 digital files. If you would like to book one then just give me a call on 07983 465414 or you can get in touch using the form on my contact page. Thanks!

Callum & Theodore

Last week I met Jessica and David and their two young sons, Callum and Theodore, at Pittville for one of my popular 30 minute park photo shoots.

The kids were in good spirits, Callum in particular was keen to show me his moves on the wooden adventure trail and Theodore, try as he might, just couldn't keep up! The brief was a mixture of informal family portraits and shots of the kids. As always the emphasis was on having fun and helping the kids to feel at ease and relaxed. I achieved this and they were thrilled with the photos.

Fred & Emma

This family was fun with a capital F! Despite their daughter, Emma, being very shy to start with, by the end she was bouncing around as much as her brother! 

The brief was to capture some nice family shots of the whole family and perhaps a few of just the kids by themselves. Pittville Park is simply stunning at this time of year; the colours really pop and cane make for some really striking photos.

We started the session on the Pump Rooms side of the park before heading through the tunnel to the Boat House side. The santa hats were pulled out pretty quickly and the kids in particular were keen to be photographed wearing them! 

We played lots of games, such as peeping out from behind trees, swinging from branches and generally messing around. The family were more than happy not to be directed, which always makes for better photos as they are far more natural. It was a fabulous shoot that I really enjoyed.

All my photo shoots are relaxed and informal. If you would like to book something similar then I'd love to hear from you. Either give me a call on 07983 465414 or get in touch using my contact page. Thanks!

Ava, Olivia, Thomas & Fred

The fourth shoot from last Saturday was again at Pittville Park. The park is so beautiful in Autumn, it really does make for very special photos. The colours really pop and kids just love the scrunchy leaves! These four children were no different! We started the shoot with some really fun leaf throwing, all taking it in turns to cover each other! They couldn't wait to hurl huge handfuls at their Dad! Baby brother Fred also got in on the act, though for some much gentler pictures nestled in the leaves! The focus of the shoot was to get some nice pictures of the whole family, (no silly faces was the brief!) and fair to say Mum was really pleased with the results!

Freya & Stan

Last Saturday was super busy with a total of seven back to back photo shoots. This was my second of the day with the very fun Stan and Freya. Once again, leaf throwing proved the most popular, particularly from behind trees! As with all my park shoots, it was very relaxed and informal with the emphasis on play and having fun.
