We will be using natural water reflections and seeking out man-made reflective surfaces in the area to explore how we can use reflections to add depth and intrigue to our images.

We'll even have a look at how we can create our own reflections when there are none around.

PHOTO
Do you need an updated family portrait? Come along to our mini photo sessions.

Mini-sessions are short 30 minute photo sessions for up to 6 people - perfect for families with little ones who can't sit still for too long.


What's Included?

You'll receive 15 professionally edited digital files (chosen by you) in a download gallery (in your choice of colour or black and white), which will be shared with you after the session. You'll also have the option to purchase extra files after the session if you want to.

You can then print out your photos as many times as you like, in whatever size you like.

Our experienced professional photographer will capture beautiful, natural moments between you and your family. However, if you'd prefer just some photos of the kids by themselves that's fine, too.

It's a great way for the grownups to get out from behind the camera and into some photos with the kids.
