This family photo shoot was for a 70th birthday, so it was a pretty special one and I felt very honoured to have been chosen to take ‘the family portrait’ for this amazing birthday gift.  They were such a lovely family and I thoroughly enjoyed spending time with them all that morning.  We were able to get some really lovely photos, especially of the children.

We had just enjoyed a whole week of glorious sunshine and then this one day for the family photo shoot the weather changed to rain, rain and more rain!  We did not let that stop us though, we managed to use some lovely big trees for shelter and a beautiful big porch which made for the perfect backdrop for a family photo shoot.  It’s always so difficult picking a date for a photo shoot as you never know what the good old english weather is going to give you on that day.  Most of the time there is always a way to get around the bad weather or making the most of it and just getting out there!
