Daddy and baby pics

Aren't cuddles from daddy just the best? More coming to the web gallery soon!

Supply and demand!

As we are getting used to being a family of 5 I am offering only a limited number of sessions this month, and the youngest member of our clan is likely to be tucked in the sling helping me make you smile!

Dates which I have left available are Friday 9th January 10.00-12.00, Tuesday 13th January 10-12 and Saturday 31st January 10-12. The week beginning 2nd February is open for negotiation!

If you would like to enquire about an available slot follow the title link to the main website where you can use the contact form. I will be in touch to follow up your e-mail.

Shadowing the city.

Living near 2 cities with fantastic photo opportunities virtually guarantees I will not get  out + use them, especially with 3 young children in tow.

However, despite freezing temperatures a newborn and everything else I was determined to use the time while the 2 older children are out to get out there and visit some tourist type places.

Being blessed with a settled baby AND clear blue skies when I saw the Tyne bridge casting its formidable shadow over the quayside I had to climb a very steep hillside risking designer pram damage and section stitch damage to get an unobstructed view but it was SO worth it.

3 is a magic number

Having a newborn in the house means I have an endless supply of cute photographic ideas to try out, sadly it also means I have a million reasons to end up being unable to carry them out!

Having taken almost 2 weeks to get around to shooting our Christmas card with 3 children I was glad to get another couple of shots, no matter whether they are technically good or not!

I'm very lucky in that I have 3 children who's features suit black + white processing as it cover a multitude of newborn blotchy-ness!

Location scouting with point & shoot

Today's midwife appointment gave a fantastic opportunity to scope out some lovely autumn locations near by.

This is valley view park (or at least thats how I know it, google maps can't identify it from that name!).

JD loved running around in the leaves and we will certainly be back there at the weekend with the D300 to capture some more lovely colours to add into em & jd's project 365.
