Bradgate Park Leicester Family Photoshoot

Bradgate Park Leicester Family Photoshoot

Family photoshoots not only capture how gorgeous, and lively the kids are, it focuses on their personalities and the relationships between everyone. The children’s spirits are beautiful to watch and remember.  Not their posey smiles, or their awkwardness- though that’s moving too- but how they run, fly, laugh, sulk, what worlds they invent, what adventures they dream up. And the way they trust the ones they love.

How they grab their favourite auntie by the hand without even looking. It’s a given that she’s there, happy to play and follow and keep them safe.

(I have a bag of toys but you’re welcome to bring favourite ones too, or dress up, or suggest anything you’d like in the photos, it’s all about you!)

Yes we do group photos too, to have everyone on one photo, but not stiff, still talking, connecting, interacting, to capture real expressions, not cardboard cutout ones, nothing fake, because when we want to remember these moments we want to know how it felt, and that they felt good, warm, real.

Photos are not about being photogenic, it’s about remembering how lucky we are to be alive and have people we love and who love us. And if we don’t find ourselves beautiful in the photos? It’s knowing we’re loved as we are.
