Burke Family

This was a fun family shoot. We did it right before the sun got harsh, but here in England the sun is coming out around 4am so I am having a hard time figuring out when the perfect shade/sun time is. The Burke family were great troopers and made a lot of fun poses, and pictures. I thoroughly enjoyed this session, just like I enjoy most of my sessions. I have been lucky enough (knock on wood) to work with some great families, and get some great photos out of them lately. I loved the way the kids posed and some of it wasn't positioned they did things on their own, and if they were more preoccupied in something else it made the picture even better with profile shots. I would like to work on cutting some of the shadows out like I stated before the sun is hard to work with lately... Maybe I'll get lucky this weekend with some shade. Speaking of this weekend I am doing my first ever Prom photo shoot tomorrow night so that should be interesting... Fingers crossed things turn out ok : ) I am loving this new found passion for photography here in England. I feel like everywhere I look there is a place to shoot... Sometimes I'd just like to pull over and place my son in some spots to get some quick mini sessions... If you see a place you like and would like to test it out let me know and we'll work something out I am always open for new ideas, new area, and a challenge at that! Until next time : )

Perez Family

Last weekend I got to work with the Perez family. I did a shoot with their youngest Mason a month or so ago and I was happy to be able to do family pictures for them! This day it was very windy, lets just say hair everywhere! We were able to manage to avoid some of the wind to capture some great family photos, although the wind interfered a few times. I loved the location we chose I happened to drive by this place all the time and decided to check it out and try it for family photos. We also did pictures in Mildenhall this day. It was a wonderful relaxed day, the kids were amazing and so cooperative, the parents helped a lot as well. I always have a blast with this family they are always up for new ideas, and willing to work with whatever we have. I have to say my favorite picture is the flag one with the 3 older kids. It was touching and I am sure meant a lot to this family...
