{ Newborn } - 10 day old baby Connor

Having my own little one has inspired me to want to take more newborn photography sessions.  Here is a little 10 day old - Connor Luke, he managed to be pretty much awake through the entire session only falling to sleep just as we were finishing.  Its great to get some shots of babies with their eyes open but it makes for a much harder session as they are a tad more difficult to pose! also one eye open is not a good look!

He was a real cutie and had lovely newborn skin which always looks fantastic in photographs.

Here are a selection from the day.

Engagement Shoot - { Wonderful Wet Weather }

Would anyone looking at these photographs believe that its the middle of July - I suppose if they are British then they won't be surprised!!

It was forecast for rain and we got a lot of it, but work with your conditions and you can come up with some creative shots, be prepared with raincoats and umbrellas!

My couple had a great time and got into the photoshoot as we moved to our second location.  I was able to shoot fully covered most of the time or I braved it with camera in one hand and brolly in the other, its not as easy as it sounds!!

A great couple and I wish them well for their wedding day in August and pray for better weather!

Here is a selection of 'wash out' shots!

{ Newborn } - 13 day old baby

I recently did a photoshoot with a gorgeous 13 day old baby, its so much easier with two photographers with newborns as posing and lighting is so important.  With my friend and fellow photographer Christina Savage we were able to try out some new posing and backgrounds for this photoshoot.

What always pleases me is looking at other photographers version of the same subject - I love the fact that with the same baby, same lighting and same cameras - we can come up with very different results.  This is why I think it is so important when clients come to choose a photographer that you do like 'their' style.

Here are a selection of my photographs below and please do take a look at Christina's to see how we both interpret this little baby girl.
