A family Photoshoot

Early in July I photographed a lovely family with  a gorgeous 21/2 year old daughter. We spent time in a beautiful cottage garden and then went into a barley field, poppy fied, fed chickens and had a great time. The weather broke during the morning so I went back and we did some more shots, going back to the poppy field and then on to the local playground where the little girl enjoyed the swings and slide.

Here are some of the shots:

Out in the countryside

My dear friend Susan has been visiting the UK from California for the last month. Sadly she and her two children are currently on a flight back to the USA.

Whilst she was here, we went out into the local countryside armed with all my flash equipment. We went to the Oil Seed Rape field I visited earlier in the year, it is now in seed and looks great. We also visited the red poppy field, a barley field and a white poppy field. I used a mix of big battery flash and normal speedlights.

When we were in the white poppy field, we experienced the most amazing sunset - we were so lucky!

Here is a selection of the images:
