Custom Portraiture

I am striving to create portraits of your family and pets which are reflecting the true personality of you, your children and your pets. My aim is to capture expressions, moments, interactions and relationships that make each personality special.

I am capturing LIFE as it happens!

 

During our session, which usually lasts between 1 - 3 hours, I like to create a casual and fun atmosphere where everybody feels at ease and relaxed.

 

Whenever possible I prefer to photograph you outside, in natural light. Most people and children are much more relaxed outside and as your children have fun and exploring their surroundings - I just observe carefully and "catch" the real moments, real smiles, real poses and interactions.

 

Newborns and smaller babies are better to be photographed indoors, in a quiet environment.

 

I allow time for breaks for various reasons and fully understand the needs of newborns and young children - I am a mum myself! I will never stress, hurry or boss you around - that is a promise!

I will meet you at a location of your choice, in a park, at the beach or your home - it will depend on the style of your portraits you have in mind. Creating different style photographs at more than one location is, of course, possible too.

 

Your clothing choice is a very important part of creating your portraits. Coordinated clothing in the same shade and style reflects the unity and intimacy of your family. It will ensure great portraiture with the focus on the people rather than the clothes. I find that natural tones or bright colors without distracting numbers, letters or logos, work best.

 

Barefeet are also always better than shoes or sandals. Of course this is weather permitting and depends on the location. Please feel free to bring any accessories along; a favorite toy or something which is special to your child can add a unique feel to your portraits.

 

About 10 days after your session I will contact you to arrange for a viewing session. You can choose between a personal presentation where your images will be presented in a musical showcase or I will prepare a private online gallery which you can share with your familiy and friends for up to 30 days.
