Emma Family Shoot | Fell Foot Park Photography I photographed this stunning little family about 4 years ago in Fell Foot Park, Cumbria. The lovely Emma got in touch recently to ask if I could take some updated photos of her little crew. I was so excited to see them again, and it honestly felt like catching up with friends rather than work. I always try to keep things fun when photographing children, always choosing large open spaces to give them plenty of room to be themselves in between posing for a few more formal photographs. These four are SO much fun together! They're incredibly...

Lakeside Hotel Photography | Family Photographer Cumbria Meet Fiona and family! They recently got together to celebrate at the stunning Lakeside Hotel in Newby Bridge, Cumbria. Set along the side of Lake Windermere, it's a stunning location to have afternoon tea. You can enjoy a log fire and sit in the conservatory overlooking the lake. There are a number of piers that make the location special for photos, with views of the pretty hills. The day was thankfully a dry one, and the light was soft and flattering as it was diffused by the clouds. However it was a little cold so we kept the outdoor...

The McSorley Family Shoot | Photographer Whinfell Forest Center Parcs Meet the gorgeous McSorley family! They hired me to go and shoot a family session with them while they were on their holidays at Center Parcs in Whinfell Forest, Cumbria. They were having a double celebration and decided to have a surprise photo shoot to commemorate the occasion. The day was a drizzly one, but the family were all up for photos despite getting a tiny bit wet. The light was actually in our favour and the forest provided a beautiful backdrop for some photos of the family enjoying themselves together. We took...

Julia's Family | Center Parcs Family Photography Whinfell Forest I had the pleasure of meeting up with Julia and her gorgeous family for a photo shoot in the stunning Whinfell Forest Centre Parcs in Cumbria. They were together for a family reunion to celebrate by spending time on holiday,  and the gorgeous forest couldn't have been a more perfect location for them. We had the shoot around their lodge where the light was so pretty and soft at the front and the back faced the forest where the kids (and adults!) could go and play. They had an epic den built and with their bikes to hand they...

Emma Family Shoot | Cumbria Family Photographer Fell Foot Park This gorgeous little family came over to visit the UK all the way from Houston, Texas. When Emma got in touch saying she wanted some photos of her little ones, Fell Foot park was our location of choice - it is a place special to Emma and the scenery and open grass is perfect for photos. The weather was kind to us, and we were able to enjoy the lake, boats in the background and the kids playground in the quiet evening. The beauty of doing a family shoot in a park instead of a studio is that the little ones have lots of space to run,...

Lynne Family Shoot | Loweswater Family Photographer Cumbria Meet Lynne and her wonderful family! I had the pleasure of recently photographing this gorgeous group at the stunning location of Loweswater in Cumbria, the Lake District. The weather was looking incredibly ominous the whole drive there as heavy clouds draped the hillsides, but thankfully Cumbria didn't let us down and the sun actually came out during the session which just enhanced the beauty around us. We took a walk along the lake, soaking in the beautiful golden fields and hillside in this relaxed country styled shoot. It was the perfect...

Centre Parcs Family Photography Shoot | Whinfell Forest Penrith I was asked to join this gorgeous family for a photo shoot in Centre Parcs, Whinfell Forest in Penrith. The family all range from ages 11 up to almost 90, and it was such a special occasion for them. They had never stayed in the same place at the same time before and I was hired to capture some photos of them together as they walked over to the Lakeside Inn to have a meal. Elaine was after more natural photos, as well as a few posed shots. The weather really couldn't have been more beautiful on the day! It was evening and the sun was shining...

Family Photographer | Cumbria Family Photography Meet this gorgeous family! When my wedding clients Michelle and Dominic contacted me asking if I would do a family photo shoot for them to celebrate Michelle's parents 40th wedding anniversary, I jumped at the chance! We had a lovely time in Cumbria where they were spending some time on holiday. We took a walk down to the pier and despite the weather being cloudy it was perfect light for flattering portraits in more natural surroundings than a studio. The star of the show had to be little Tilly who was super cute! Michelle, Dominic and family...
