Essex portrait photography

Outdoor family lifestyle session.

Whether it's at home, in the park, the woods or your favourite spot by the sea I will accompany you and your family and document your family.

Having a young family myself I know how important it is to build rapport with your family and ensure there are suitable rests for children and adults alike. The sessions are fun and I will do my best to keep everyone engaged.

We will chat through location ideas and because we're shooting outside I use the natural light available to produce high quality, candid, quirky and fun photography that you will want to share with your friends and family.

A family lifestyle portrait session normally lasts between 1 - 2 hours.

A day in the life of you.

That sounds quite scary doesn't it?

A day in the life of you. If it's anything like ours, at times that can be filled with mess and chaos but sometimes that's the exact thing that makes life so wonderful.

Some days it's like you're in the middle of a tornado and you're looking forward to when the wind settles down (dare I say children grow up!.)

However, do you know what?

I bet these days will be missed. Let us seek the beauty in your everyday and capture those moments that you'll never get again.

I will be a fly on the wall so to speak, not instructing or posing just letting the natural flow of your daily life happen, capturing the loud clangs of morning wake-up all the way through to the peaceful story being read under the soft light of the bedroom reading light.

A day in the life session normally lasts from sunrise to early evening though I will spend approximately 4 hours total with the family over the period of this time.

Couple and Engagement shoots.

Capture the love and share it with others or keep these special moments private.

A couple or engagement shoot provides an opportunity to capture the love between you both - and a way of breaking free from taking photographs yourselves to be natural, relaxed and in the moment together.

You choose the location and I will come prepared to capture the bond between you. We can either create some wonderful posed shots or just let things take their course and I'll capture the candid moments that bring your love to life.

A couple or engagement shoots usually lasts between 1 and 2 hours at a location of your choosing.

Family and club events.

After all the planning, time and money spent on the DJ, the party packs or the Christmas elf you've forgotten one thing. How are you going to capture the event and share it with your friends and family?

I attend your event and save you the time and frankly the distraction of taking photographs yourself and allow you to actually enjoy it.

There will typically be people in attendance who will use their phone (or camera) to take photographs but they tend to focus on their children, spouse or whomever is most important to them.

I work with you to make sure the entire event is captured for prosperity. The location, the people and all the little details that you've spent months thinking about.

The session will typically start before your event starts to make sure external shots are acquired and then I will remain at the event as long as you need me to.

Personal branding / headshots.

Whether it's headshots for your CV or personal branding for your social media or business accounts, I come to you and discuss your requirements.

We live in a fast paced and dynamic world; competition for jobs is stronger than ever and individual branding and a celebration of the individual has become important to many.

Let me help you achieve more through giving you impactful photographic imagery that will take your branding to the next level.

Personal branding shoots typically last between 1 - 2 hours.

Business and staff.

Let me help you build your business brand by capturing powerful and eye catching photography that will help your business thrive in our digital age.

Photography can have a huge impact on the success (or not) of businesses especially those in the leisure, retail and catering industry.

An investment in the photography of your business is a sound investment. I will work with you to ensure the photographs and imagery we produce blows away your competitors.

My aim is to make sure that when your potential customers are scrolling through Instagram, Facebook or even reading flyers through their doors, it is your business that makes them stop and take notice.
