Lifestyle Photography

I met this beautiful little girl and her lovely parents recently. We met up in their home in Merseyside for their newborn photography shoot. I just love receiving newborn enquiries, as to be honest, I enjoy cooing over little babies! She was so well behaved and was a dream to photograph. She had the odd little cry here and there, but it was nothing a bit of milk couldn't fix! It's such a privilege to be able to capture such import times in peoples lives, and I never grow tired of being asked to photograph memories such as these. One of the most exciting stages of parenthood is the newborn stage...

I spend most of my time working as a wedding photographer, travelling all over the UK. But as many wedding photographers find, weddings seem to go through patches where you have loads together, then nothing for a few weeks or sometimes months. Usually in these quieter periods I get enquiries for Lifestyle family shoots and newborn sessions and I love it! It's such a refreshing change. I am still doing what I love, but mixing it up a bit. My usual style for a lifestyle shoot is to take kids to a park and let them run around, laugh, and play. But obviously with a newborn session, taking the photographs...

I recently met up with Chris and Emma and their gorgeous kids Kai and Nyah for a lifestyle photo shoot. We used Ashton Park in Preston,Lancashire to give us some green background, and to let the kids have some space to play.  I'm used to working as a wedding photographer, which I love, but I do enjoying lifestyle portrait sessions almost as much. I was excited about this shoot as I just LOVE letting kids charge around big open spaces such as grassy fields. But adding to the fun they also have a new dalmatian puppy called Lulu. I can honestly say that at times, a family session can be just as stressful...

One of the joys of this job is being able to take part in the most memorable times in peoples lives. I've had the privilege of capturing engagements, weddings, newborn, children and family portraits, but maternity photography was a first for me. I was really excited when I was asked to do this shoot, as I know what an exciting and incredibly special time of life pregnancy is. For the maternity shoot we travelled to the beach at St Annes, Lancashire. The weather was absolutely glorious. We were able to take a stroll on the beach itself, and also have a few photographs taken in a field next to the shore....

Every so often a friend of mine asks me to take some pictures for them, and it's always extra special when they ask for some portraits of their children. I've done newborn photography before, but when this particular friend asked me to capture some images of her son, I was thrilled. It was a real privilege to take these photographs for them, as they have been through much heartache but at the end they have two gorgeous children. Newborn photography always brings challenges. For one, I like to always take the pictures indoors. This can make light challenging, so I usually ask if I can turn...

Fashion Photography Lancashire | St Annes Beach It is with much excitement that I am sharing this little sneak peek of the stunning Anna Clough of Nemesis Modelling Agency. Also on the shoot was the equally talented Jaye Adams, professional makeup artist. I had previously met Jaye when we had the pleasure of working together at a wedding a few months ago. We had kept in touch, and had both been wanting to get round to planning a fashion shoot, where Jaye could make up a model and I could photograph. When I met up with Jaye and Anna for the shoot, the day couldn't have been more perfect! Our personalities...
