Makeover and Children photo shoots - Portraiture to fall in love with
04/08/11 19:17
Apart from the weddings last month the studio in July was busy with Makeover and Children’s shoots. They say that variety is the spice of life and I couldn’t agree more. Being a professional photographer can bring you something new each day, each with their own challenges and problems, and each requiring a very different approach.
Makeovers are very rewarding. Once the client has arrived we have a group discussion (client, me and Sarah) to agree the style of hair & makeup that suits the outfits that the client has brought along to the studio. Then the transformation begins - I don’t know how Sarah does it but the changes are nothing less than spectacular. Georgia rarely wears makeup and her hair is normally combed straight with very little body. Neither Georgia or her Mum had any idea of what potential there was until Sarah worked her magic.

Photo shoots with children are a totally different kettle of fish. With babies and toddlers you may get a few opportunities early in the shoot for some poses, but generally the session turns into an organised play time, which is a great way of getting lovely natural shots to capture the individuality of the child. Older children are a little easier as they are normally happy to pose, unlike teenagers that can become very self aware and awkward in front of the camera. One of the shoots in July were of sisters Angel and Sienna. A mixture of poses and play time meant we were able to capture some gorgeous shots.
After the shoot, and once the client has seen the presentation of the shots, we can offer a variety of products to show off your images. Books and portfolio’s make a lovely keepsake but Georgia and Angel & Sienna’s Mum chose to display their favourite shots on the wall. Our new in-house framing service means that we can offer a variety of frame styles. All of which are printed in-house with the latest Epson, 12 ink, large format printer and assembled by us using only the finest grade products. By bringing this process in-house we can control the quality and offer our clients competitive pricing completing our full photographic service.
Northamptonshire Studio - Baby shoot

Baby Portrait in the Studio
Little Hayden visited the studio for his first photo-shoot on Saturday.
He had been poorly with a long stint in hospital, but he is doing very well now with Mum eager to have some timeless portraits taken. Babies seem to grow up so quick. Thats why having some portraits taken when they are still young is a great way to help you remember how small they really were, especially when they can fit in a hat!!!
I had a vision for a long while of a baby hanging in a knitted hat. Hayden gave me the ideal opportunity to try the shot, although we really didn’t think he was going to fit in at first, but with some patience he soon got comfy and ready for some shots. You get use to shooting quickly with small babies because you are never really sure how long their patience will last. No worries here though, I think this is the longest session I have had without those quick cuddles from Mum for reassurance. Maybe hanging in a hat is not only a cute way to photograph babies but a great way to keep them secure and happy.
