Family Portraits

On a recent trip to Norfolk for my mum's birthday, I decided to take the camera out when we went for a walk along the beach. As you can see, my natural style is more documentary/lifestyle because I love the natural shots you can get from doing this and I know not everyone likes to have a camera thrust in their face! So if you are a bit camera shy but would love some gorgeous family portraits, please get in touch!





Come on Daddy, this way!
And here are a few others of my gorgeous neice, for good measure!

More Street Photography

This is the last set of images (I think!) from my Street Art workshop in East London. I did take A LOT of photos that day and there are only a handful left from the final cut but I really enjoyed doing this mini project. Not only did I go and see some of my (fairly) local surroundings but it's definitely given me a lot of food for thought for future projects. Hope you enjoy the last in this set!












This one above is probably one of my favourites out of this set. I know it doesn't actually contain any street art but I love anything to do with reflections. And I like how I have only got their faces in the shot through the reflection in the puddle. Just me maybe but I like it!



And I really like this one too because even now when I look at it, the art on the wall is just kind of jumping out from the wall. Brilliant art work in my opinion. I just took the photo!

One weekend in sunny June....

One weekend in sunny June......... Actually, it was probably in May, I don't think we've had a sunny weekend in June this year have we?! Well, have no fear, I managed to get a photo with rain in it as well, just in case anyone got withdrawal symptoms of the moist stuff.





















I don't think I need to explain why I took these photos. But I will anyway; the colours. When the Sun is shining and I'm lying on the decking in my back garden this is what I get to look up to. It's almost like being on holiday when you get to look at these vibrant, rich and varied colours. Until you hear a bus go past anyway!


This photo was inspired thanks to a recent trip to a card shop. Some had random figurines in equally random places. A juxtaposition, if you will.  So it made me think about what random objects I have at home and how can I take them out of their 'normal' habitat. Just a bit of fun really. Having said that, I might make myself a project out of it now, take this little storm trooper out with me and see what random places I can photograph him in........ Although to be fair, this isn't a very random place to put him. In my garden, yes, but on a rock is not that far removed from where he would live if he really was in Star Wars.







And the rain reins supreme once again! But I always like to see an opportunity in any given situation and I just love looking at raindrops on windows. Water can really distort the way you see something but in this photo, it's where the rain drop of is that's clearer. The image doesn't demonstrate just how much it was lashing it down at this point either. If I'd been in a car the wipers would have been on full whack!




So there you have it; ONE weekend, ONE camera, ONE location, FOUR very different photos. Enjoy!
