Gone are the days of only smiling and looking directly at the camera. While I do get these, lots are laughing, cuddles and quiet moments, these are often the most captivating portraits.
A shoot is about an hour, this is just the right amount of time for it to not be rushed and me to capture lots of variety.
I am a calm and gentle person and don't like to rush.
They take place outside as I love nature and soft filtered light.
I photograph at the best time of day, early morning and late afternoon.
This changes as the seasons and length of days evolve each year.
