St Philip & St James' Church Photo Shoot

The church of St Philip & St James sits in the heart of the Leckhampton community. It is also very special to us now that Jenson, our eldest, has started in reception at St Philip & St James' Primary School.

As a family, we often attend the family friendly service, which is held on the first of every month. It's always such a delight to see the children, (and all their noises!) so warmly welcomed. 

I've got to know Nick Davies, the vicar, very well over the past few years, having previously taken professional photographs of Harvest and Pentecost, not to mention the epic Bubble & Squeak book challenge! To view all of those blogs please follow the links below.

Last Sunday Nick asked if I could pop along to the family service to take some new photos for him, in particular of the children and the three baptisms that were taking place during the service too! I was joined by Mr Mouse and our two baby squeakers and had lots of fun capturing these shots, with Miss Mouse climbing all over me for the duration!

Alila's Naming Ceremony

I loved photographing this naming ceremony for the beautiful Alila, which took place on August 16th 2015 near Cirencester. I was in my element with so many gorgeous children and babies to take photos of and all in a relaxed and natural setting, fantastic! For the full story and all the pictures click here.

Newborn Photo Shoot - Introducing Ralph

This newborn photoshoot took place nearly two weeks ago but with wedding season at its peak, this is the first chance I've had to sit down and show you the pictures of this gorgeous little boy.

Son to Lucy and Owen and baby brother to Summer, Ralph is just 1 week old in these photos. He was such a cutie, sleeping for pretty much the duration! He woke up momentarily for a feed before deciding that it was all far too much like hard work!

Esme

It was such a pleasure to photograph Esme for Nathan and Theresa. They own a dog grooming parlour in Gloucester called TK9. They were recommended to me by another photographer who has since retired.

It's always great when someone shows a real appreciation for my work and what I'm trying to do but even more so when a fellow professional recommends me.

"Your work is of a very high standard, but your prices are very reasonable, so I've no hesitation in recommending your services".
