There's nothing quite like a family get together, and there's nothing like trying to organise a family photo. Believe me, my extended family has over 60 people in it, and it gets harder every time! It's always a fun challenge when I'm asked to photograph multi-generational family photos, so here's a few hints and tips to help you plan your family photo shoot. My number
So you may have noticed that this blog has been a little bit quiet this year (by comparison with my usual contributions), it's not that I don't have anything to talk about, or that I'm not busy with my photography, in fact the photography business is going really well (thanks to all of you who are booking me and making enquiries all the time).

The newborn/family photo shoot was very much a family affair with people coming and going the whole time I was at the family home, but we got some beautiful photos
This summer has been so busy with family photo shoot sessions, the studio has been almost constantly busy. Here's just a couple of photos from a recent photoshoot.
When it comes to remembering a momentous occasion nothing beats capturing it in photographic format. And there's no better time to commemorate than a baby's first birthday!
