Watford Peace Hospice Fundraising Event

I recently took some photos at a family day to help raise money for the Watford Peace Hospice. The event took place at Hunton Park - a beautiful venue - and was organised by the Peace Hospice to raise money. The Hospice and it's staff do a fantastic job day after day caring for the terminally ill and offering support to the families. There were stalls; bands; games; mini fairground rides; facepainting; bouncy castles and many other stalls and activities to keep everyone entertained. Unfortunately the British weather wasn't that kind to us on the day but there was still a pretty good turn out and all the children and families had a fun afternoon. Here are a few of the images.

Pictures are available through the website with 50% of proceeds being donated to the Peace Hospice.

Children's Portraits Harefield

Some new portraits from a recent children's photo session in Harefield. Photos can be taken in your own garden where the children can play with their own things and go on the swings or trampoline or whatever they fancy doing. Sessions are relaxed and natural and there is no pressure on you or the children to "perform". Here are a few of my favorites:

Outdoor Portraits of Teenagers - Watford

Here are some images from a recent location shoot. These were taken at a Girls Photographic Party for a 13th Birthday. We wanted natural outdoor portraits of each of the girls. Everyone had a good time and here are a few of my favourite images.

















You can also have photos taken in your own home which work just as well. Here are a couple of examples.

Thank you girls you were all great - and a happy birthday to the lovely Grace.

Whippendell Woods, Watford - Portraits in the Bluebells

Once a year I try to make sure I photograph my daughter in the local bluebell woods as a means of charting her progress year by year (so far only missed one). I also do this because Spring is one of my favourite times of year and visiting the bluebell woods reminds me of this. My daughter is now old enough to remember lots of experiences and she has always loved the bluebells, so the last few weeks she's been bugging me constantly about when we could go .. and since the bluebells appeared we've made a few trips. This is a good example of when photos become important memories for children - hopefully when she is older and looks back on these she will remember that this was something the two of us did together (nearly) every year. Here are a few of my favourite images from a couple of days ago....

It's hard to believe she is another year older ....
