Well, this was fun! Julie & Gary live in a beautiful farm-style house that backs onto a field, so the location was perfect! The fact that they owned hay bales was the icing on the cake! This was a perfect example of an extended family shoot, including 2 siblings, their parents, 2 doggo’s and all the grandchildren/cousins, half of whom live State Side!
It’s also an example of how coordinating colours with the family make such a huge difference in how to images turn out! This is one of my favourite shoots to date; the location & styling were perfect!
Shoots like these can capture all the fun with natural shots, but also beautiful, timeless portraits!

To say this shoot was fun would be an understatement! When your client says “I hope you don’t mind, but my dad brought some costumes”, you silently thank the Photo Gods!
Jen had organised the shoot as a gift to her dad, who was in her words, ‘obsessed with his dog Caeser’! So obviously the shoot was about Caeser and Dad, but he allowed the family to tag along too! We spent 2 hours in Pollok Park in Glasgow, exploring, hanging about in trees, and being Mexican Warlords (well…..Dad did anyway!) I even managed to get Caeser sitting still for 10 seconds!
A brilliant shoot and they were so thrilled with the results!

Private Concierge Scotland & Of One Mind organised another amazing networking event in the ever so shiny Tesla on Multrees Walk in Edinburgh.
Hosted between by Onestop IT and Datto, this was another great event bringing together brilliant businesses, such as Timeless Candles Scotland, Lin Gin, Molvino Fine Wine and Spirits and liked minded business people.

Dad Andy, bought a gift voucher of a 2 hour photoshoot for his lovely wife Gillian for Christmas. It had been a while since they’d had family photos taken, so these were well overdue!
We headed out to their local park, with a rather hesitant little girl, and had an afternoon of fun looking for fairies, and playing Grannies Pants! By the end of the session, Little Miss I and I were firm friends!
Photoshoots with [JSP] are fun, natural and relaxed, and this family’s framed artwork will make them smile for years to come!

Lynsey wanted to giver her parents a unique gift for their Ruby Anniversary, so she organised a photoshoot for the whole family. Granny & Granda were visiting for Northern Ireland, so we got everyone together and headed to a special place that meant something to the family.
2 hours of fun in the woods, resulted in portraits of the kids, family shots, group shots and some good old messing about shots!
Cousins
Cousins Shoot
I was called at the last minute to help out a family who needed a cousins photoshoot and fast! Heather wanted a nice photo of all 3 great grandchildren for her granny, who was turning 90.
Being very young, it’s always tricky to get all 3 doing what you need or taking their thumbs out their mouth and even looking in your direction – but I think this lifetsyle style of shoot forgives these things!
They are relaxed, the kids are happy because they’re in an environment they know, and most importantly, they are themselves!

It’s about 18 months after their baby is born, when parents know they need to capture the innocence & beauty that only a 1 year old posseses! Before they start talking back, having tantrums & running away!
Little Layla’s mum knew these days needed captured, and she knew the dress to do it in! We talked about wild flowers and how pretty she’d look, so I took them to my secret location near my home!
Mum thought I was mad (I’m quite sure!) but she trusted my vision and thankfully, she loves the photos. I think I made her cry. I love it when that happens!
Layla was amazing. So brave & fearless. A little heart melter!
