Pregnancy, Baby and Children Photographer in Herftfordshire
Mandie received a gift voucher for a photo session last Christmas and I was really looking forward to this shoot – it is a little bit different from what I usually do as Mandie’s son and daughter are young adults. The session was a breeze: no tricks or bribes required to get my models to pose for me this time 
Mandie specifically asked for black and white shots and I think it works really well on these portraits. Here are some of my favourite shots from the session.
With their 1 year old twins and 3 year old boy Liz and Richard really have their hands full! They are such a lovely family and I had the pleasure of photographing them a couple of weeks ago in their St Albans home and we made the most of their amazing garden.
Here are some photos from a session with our great friends Helen and Jason and their two beautiful children. This is Helen’s (long overdue) birthday present from me, so Happy Birthday Helen!
Last week my friend Niels and his two gorgeous children came to visit me in St Albans. Niels and his family had been living abroad for several years so it was the first time I had the chance to meet his son B aged 4 and daughter P aged 2, such great kids! We went on the “bear hunt” in the local woods and had fun exploring!
Here are some of my favourite shots from our little adventure in the woods:
I love it when everything comes together for a good shoot. Last Saturday the weather was just right: nice and warm but not too hot with just enough clouds to gently cover the bright sunshine. This together with an overgrown garden as Clare and Leo were in the middle of moving into their new house were a great set up for some fun family shots. The children (cool big brother J and super cute little sister R) were excited to run around in the garden, look for frogs in the pond, play with mum and dad and generally be happy!
I had such trouble narrowing down my favourites that I thought I would include them all, it’s my blog so why not!
Here is a sneak preview of this week’s photo session with Sarah and Paul’s family in St Albans. Two year old big brother O was in a happy and playful mood, a pleasure to photograph. My favourites of this session also include some lovely parent and baby shot of their lovely daughter A, only 5 weeks old.
I love going back to families I have photographed in the past and see how much the children have grown and developed. I first photographed Laura and Paul’s family over 3 years ago when their son M was just 4 weeks old. They have asked me to come back this year to photograph their family again including their beautiful baby daughter.
It was great to see M as a “big boy”, he was so chatty and made a point of correcting my pronunciation of the French towns on his Little Red Train roadmap.
I was so spoilt this morning as I got to photograph two truly beautiful children and their lovely mum Aibilin. Mum and kids all have the same hair colour, so photogenic! Aibilin was after some photos of the three of them to put up in their new house but I could resist taking a few extra ones of the children on their own and 7 year old N. loved posing for me with her amazing wavy hair and beautiful smile.
I had a hard time narrowing down my favourites so here is a whole bunch for you:
I have had the privilege of photographing Wendy and Tim’s growing family for the past three years, from Wendy’s first pregnancy to the arrival of their second child. It is always a great pleasure to return and see how much the children have grown from one photo shoot to the next!
Here is a small selection from our latest session a couple of weeks ago:
Yuval contacted me last year to book a Bump to Baby package as a surprise present for his wife Maya. They already had two lovely boys and whole family was such a pleasure to photograph, I was really looking forward to their baby girl’s arrival. An outbreak of chicken pox got in the way for a while but last week I was finally able to meet them all again with the wonderful addition of baby A. The boys seemed to be have grown a lot in this short period, N had lost his first milk tooth and E’s curls had been replaced by a smart boy’s haircut. I feel very privileged to have met them and to have been able to capture the family as 4 became 5!
Here are a few photos from the second session, I had real trouble picking my favourites as they were so many!
