We had a great day on Saturday, firstly at a fun day organised to raise money for a charity close to my heart http://www.sudc.org/, and then we went on a local park, with a pub right next to it, and lounged in the sun whilst the kids played. As always I had the camera with me and managed to sneak a few photos in 🙂
Finally I managed to get a day which wasn’t washed out for my outdoor family sessions! I met with 4 families, at a local outdoor space and it was perfect – we had a bluebell wood on one side and a field with gorgeous yellow flowers on the other side. The day started at 10am and finished at 6pm and we managed the whole day without any rain it was some kind of miracle! Thanks to all the families that came along and I’m looking forward to seeing the images in their homes – one family has turned their photos into huge canvases and I cant wait to see them in situ 🙂
Outdoor family photo sessions in Hemel Hempstead
What an exciting month – along with all the announcement of my annual competition and launch of my outdoor photo sessions https://www.ninamacephotography.com/outdoor-dates/ I’ve just found out I’ve won 2 National Awards! I have received Bronze Bars for 2 portraits in the Image of the Month Competition. One was taken at an outdoor session in Basingstoke and the other was taken at a baby photo session in Hemel Hempstead.

I had an email from M saying that she would like a photo session to remember her 3rd pregnancy and would also like some shots with her son and daughter. Just before I left for my half term holiday we had the session and Im really pleased with the images we managed to get. We included bump, the whole family, the kids on their own and im really excited to be going back to meet baby in a few months. Some of my favourite shots from this maternity session in Hemel Hempstead are shown below.
This week I had the pleasure of photographing a family in Reading with a 1 year old girl and a 3 year old boy. There were lots of really interesting pockets of light around the house and the kids were so good and I was really pleased with the mixture of potraits and lifestyle images that we managed to achieve. I often like the shots where the kids are just playing and being themselves the most. Some of my favourite images are shown below. Fihoto ssion, Hemel Hempstead photogra
