A mixed bunch

Here is a bunch of pictures I took last week. Location photography at Valentine Park and at Lily's Indulgence in South Woodford. I had great light both days as Sunday was the sunniest day so far this year and the light and wallpaper at Lilys makes it easy to take fantastic photos every time...

Look book

I thought that a look book or display book would be a good idea to keep with me for potetial clients to see my work in actual form, not virtual like online. So I went to Paperchase last Monday to buy a display book and the prints I ordered arrived last night.
This is what it looks like :-)



It's an interesting collection of my 39 favourite and most varied photographs, including parties, everyday and location photography. 
 I welcome constructive criticism, so please let me know what you think.

Mmmmmmm, Cake!





I bought some cakes from Kipling and gave them to A so I could practice taking cake pictures with my longer lens, a win-win situation :-)
There will more pictures on my Facebook page, link below, feel free to like it. Hope to see you there.

The fashion girl










If you happen to have a girl (or a boy) interested in fashion this is what a fun and natural photoshoot could look like. I use the long lens so I'm not in the way of the childs movement. This way I can also zoom in on the details that I think are so important and will give you a feel of day.

Balloons

Balloons and bubbles are in my opinion the best props to use when photgraphing kids as they think its fun and the expressions are natural and very very cute.





Other props that can be fun are feathers and colourful balls.
