Session in a BOX - fun photo session for the whole family

15/8/2015

1 Comment

 
'We are having a family photo session, dear' this is what most dads dread to hear. 'Do I have to be there? How long will it take? Are you sure you need me as well? Ok, only half an hour of my time!' Sounds familiar? Good news, I've just created a solution for this.

Dad should exist in a family portrait but it doesn't have to be a torture, it can be a fun for the whole family. No grumpy dads with the facial expressions of  'can I go now', no 'cheese' for kids, no desperation for mums.

My dearest husband agreed to dedicate his time and effort to create a FUN BOX for me.

The first stage - lots of measuring, cutting, fitting, and remeasuring.
After few days of craftsmanship...

Now it's my turn for lots of sanding, holes filling and painting. Five coats of paint!

Finally it's all finished and Lukas jumped in for the very first shot.

I am just finishing editing the full session and will post pictures on the next blog.

I photographed Lily four years ago. Then she was a tiny girl that couldn't keep still for a second. Now she is a little madam putting on a lipstick and the sweetest smile ever...

Family session on the beach

10/7/2015

We kept postponing the session waiting for the perfect day for it. And here it was - sunny bright Saturday with a rather busy beach and strong wind. It doesn't sound like a great day for the session but it worked for us! Boys were having fun throwing stones into the sea, glamour shots for mummy, and even daddy looked like he was having fun!

You are good enough to be photographed

I've met so many gorgeous women that feel that they are not good enough to be photographed. When you look in the mirror, what do you see?  A woman who is too big? too short? too old? not pretty enough? ears too big? nose too big? the list can go on and on. But the truth is that you compare yourself to a self or media created perfect girl who doesn't exist. You erect this wall that doesn't allow you to see the true beautiful YOU with all your perfect imperfections. You never like how you look in photographs? again, it's not your fault, it's a person who took the picture didn't know how to pose you, use light, etc.
So, are you this woman, or maybe you know someone who 'suffers from imperfections'? Nominate yourself or someone you know filling in this form with brief introduction. I am giving away two makeover photosessions with a 10" x 8" portrait that will change the way you see yourself. I will show You how beautiful you are without slimming you in photoshop, without photoshoping your 'imperfections' .

A Portrait of a Young Dancer

23/5/2015

Tomorrow's success begins today. It's amazing how a little girl with awkward movements grows into a youngster that still struggles with balance, and who within few years will become a graceful dancer.

When we left for the session it was a glorious sunny day, when we arrived to the location, the sun was hiding behind the clouds and the chilly wind started rising. But kids never get cold, do they?

The meaning of a portrait

13/11/2014

0 Comments

 
Every time I photograph a mature woman I feel the importance of what I do. One day these portraits will be invaluable for her children and it makes my heart smile when a woman is coming for a shoot despite her insecurities whatever they may be, age (too old for a photo session) or body related (too big, too short, not pretty, not perfect, etc.) or psychological (self-conscious, lack of self confidence, not good enough, etc.). Her children will treasure these portraits because the beautiful woman in the photograph is their mother.
