Watergate Bay Family Holiday Photo Shoot.
You can’t beat sessions with returning families.
Each session gets more and more relaxed; the children are familiar with me, and it genuinely feels like catching up with an old friend. And the results get better and better!
Being able to capture your family as you grow, for me, it’s the dream.
When Rebecca contacted me to book a beach family photoshoot to capture her pregnancy alongside her husband Ben and gorgeous daughter Freya, the family combined their shoot with a much-needed Family holiday in Salcombe, Devon, before baby two arrives.
Freya, who is nearly two, absolutely loved the beach. Rebecca and Ben were so excited for the next chapter with two little ones, but they wanted to capture how they are now with Freya in a relaxed and natural way. I remember that strange mix of feelings transitioning from firstborn to two babies like it was yesterday! Like so many of us, they struggle to get photos of them altogether; these moments deserve more than selfies or quick shots on a phone.
It’s always such a delight to photograph people on their holidays as there is such a sense of excitement and fun. I love meeting you and your families especially the ones who come back year after year. I will always have a huge place in my heart for my families I get to travel through life with and photograph here too.
You might not realise it now but these photos that we make together will only become more and more precious over time. Memories will fade, and these photographs will be the only thing that connects you to this time and place, this moment of wandering along the beach at sunset, with your daughter clinging onto you, while your son was growing away in your belly, before your family of three became four. These photos will not only be loved by you for your lifetime, they will be loved by your children too. Capture the good times together; they mean more than you know.
