This portrait just totally sums up this lovely jubbley Abney Hall

family photoshoot in Cheshire.

Cora started pulling her tongue out and because we all laughed that was it the tongue was out in force!

I think having a family photoshoot should be fun, having a giggle making you feel relaxed is all part of my job. That way I can see the real you.

You want to look back in years to come and say oh my days do you remember when she used to that.

The best moments are captured in between the ones where you think I’m taking the photograph. The moments when you look at each and relax, that’s when I get the sparkle.

Those are my photographs the moments in between.

With Cora we got the snuggles.

We got the kisses.

The tender moments too.

I always say that at this age there’s only a short window to capture these kind of family portraits, time flies people believe me you’ll blink your little one will be all grown up and then you’ll think when was the last time we had some professional photographs taken?

After this session they booked Cora in for a cake smash to celebrate her turning one. We had the best of both worlds then as they were taken in the studio. Both have a different feel and both show Cora in a different light, there were no tongues but definitely some other funny faces pulled!
