Im able to say that exposure photography is a busy little studio, and im able to say its all because of my clients, obviously. But when you have a four time returning client and that returning client just so happens to be from another contry!! i think she needs a blog of her own!  from living on cruise ships for some time i know how much i missed home! i missed my mum and family and all those little things, the smell of fresh cut grass…. yorkshire puddings, yummy! A big bath and soft water!  And your own bed. Sheena and her family miss all this too, just also happens that im on the list also!  Sheena’s beautiful family have visited me each time they are home and we send on the photos. Here is a very small taste of what her photo session went like. looking forward to our next time. x

Meet  Jude and her family… she was my first baby book client. wow.  And now here we are finishing her little boys photo book.  I feel like i have know jude for ever…four years in fact.  It says something when your beautiful daughter calles me Aunty Andy!!  I  would like to say a big  Thank you to you.!  Im so happy that you like what i do to keep coming back to me.  I have photographed your family so many times, its been a complete joy to work with you, I have loved every minute of it….especailly when I get big cuddles and kisses from your little ones.   Here is our session… its days like this that remind me why I love where I live!  And its for beautiful people like Jude and Stue that make me love what I do even more. X

If my sessions are for anyone then they are definatly made for this family!  They are highly spirited to say the very, very least.  Nathan has an inability to sit still.  Jess is alive. They are all full of life. The kids are  charismatic, moody, charming and irresistibly sweet.  This is the 3rd time i have photographed this family… evey session is fun, but this one was for you Gilian.  I hope you like your little preview and i hope your leg is better soon.! xx

Whats m little Pierce wearing…! His daddy wont be happy! it should be red and white. this is my brother,Anthony and his daughter Isabel, how beautiful.  Whats took me so long to get these images up on here…? maybe Pierce weraring a newcastle strip might have something to do with it!  Anyway things move so fast, messages coming in, voicemails, call backs, drawbacks, driving here, running there…. Life isn’t prone to slow motion.  Life doesn’t slow down,  unless you do. Unless I do.

Look at her face…. beautiful

love you both loads. xx

You can’t possibly not fall in love with this amazing cute bundle. Sam she is absolutly beautiful, your lost for words. she had a great session… given what time it was! we took so many wonderful images its really hard for me to put them up on here.
Have a look at some of my favorites from our fun filled session.

Such beautiful people, such amazing children…. create wonderful images!

I’ve got a LOT of images to share with you this week… so I’ll keep the writing… short and sweet!

There is nothing in the world, I would rather have as a profession than, spending my time, capturing love in photographs. Nothing.

You can’t possibly not fall hilariously in love with this wildly spirited, amazingly cute, arm waving,  cheeky little boy!   Imagination is one of the most spectacular gifts of childhood, and when you have grown ups around that encourage imagination and art and life and laughter… it clearly shines. Especially through the lens of a camera.
Have a look at some of my favorites from our fun filled sessions of Charlies first year with Exposure Photography. Its gone so fast….all i need to do now is make your book.  See you soon little man x

My answering machine says I’m booked up for a full month… What that actually means is, I’m shooting between 3-5 shoots per day. What that actually means is… I’m busy. Very busy…but who isn’t really!!! I am really enjoying photographing so many wonderful families, and fabulous people!  Here are a few more family/ baby/ children pregnancy images that have been keeping me busy in the studio. If anyone is wanting any studio sessions you really need to call us asap, You maybe have a birthday you would like me to photograph or a christening… weddings are really busy, we are currently booking up for 2011.   But  just think we  have Christmas coming soon!   We do have gift vouchers if you can’t get booked in!  Last year was great on gift vouchers and judging on the feedback we received  our clients where over the moon with there gifts, and managed to keep us busy in January. Maybe have a call into our studio to see what we can do for you.

From weddings, to pregnancy, to new babies and gorgeous grannies -  You’ll find my images to be fresh, alive and very exciting! I consistently pride myself on creating timeless images that inspire and amaze. I passionately and lovingly capture images that you and your loved ones will undoubtedly cherish.  You’ll wonder why you had waited so long.

It’s true that weddings have been keeping me busy, but so have a number of other awesome shoots.
Here are a few of my favorites from the latest.

This is Alex, my first halloween shoot… well done for starting off my day with lots of love and smiles. I wish Pierce did the same!!!!

Archie wasnt a happy bunny either and needed his big sister Ava to come in and play with him.

But we got lots of big smiles and laughter from Charlie….. This is a bit sad as it has come to the end of our baby book sessions. What a great last shoot.
