Summer Part 5
11th October 2015
In: Latest Shoots

The location may have been the same as the previous shoot I shared with you, even the weather was fairly similar, but the average age of the 'children' involved wasn't.... In fact they can't even be classed as children anymore. That in itself gives the shoot a whole different feel. I can interact verbally for starters and don't have to jump around in a deranged manner to get a reaction.



So we wandered around the beautiful ancient site, avoiding the strong breeze and strong low sun, to capture some family shots, and individual ones too. It was a genuinely relaxing hour or so I spent working on this shoot. I really lovely family who were all open to my direction, they even laughed at my weak attempts at humour…..well once or twice anyway!

With family shoots, it's always the parents that are happy to let the kids be photographed individually, but we can't be having that, can we? I got Mum to take centre stage on a few occasions, and I have to say, she was a natural in front of the camera. It's no surprise her children were equally as good too!

I quite often take this shot with the parents in the background, but flipped it around this time. I think it works really well…a little twist on the norm!
