Perry Woods … a site of natural beauty … and the Steward family photoshoot experience!

This family are my perfect clients. We first met three years ago when new addition, Darcey, was just a few days old. Since then, I’ve photographed her as she’s grown, I’ve joined big sister Erin and her friends at a birthday party (mad, crazy, fun) and Andy’s parents for a special anniversary and family gathering and also had a spectacular photoshoot with their two camper vans, Ludwig and Matilda (Whitstable Bays). I’ve cuddled their tiny newborn pups and I’m always welcomed with cake and tea. See, perfect. And when mum Suzie suggested that we meet last Saturday in the car park at Perry Woods (an ancient woodland near Selling and Chilham, I wasn’t in the least surprised – October has always proved a great time to have a photoshoot with Darcey and the weather report had been checked and verified … so we did this …

Little Darcey was proving to be a bit camera shy but we worked together … until the rest of the family photobombed us!

And, of course, in Matilda there was cake …

Such fun and a great way to spend an autumn morning – if you haven’t had a family portrait session for ages, why not drop me a line sam@samanthajonesphotography.co.uk and I’d be happy to hear your ideas!

Lovely to spend time with you all on this special day. Here’s a quick little teaser with some images from Sunday … enjoy!

I’ll make sure that the edits are all done before you leave for foreign shores xxx

Meet the Brinicombes – fun family photoshoot that ended up on the beach! {Sneak peek}

It could not have been better weather for our family photoshoot. Katy, mum to to these gorgeous two boys, had met me at a recent pamper evening at Pines Calyx organised by Ellie Beer of The Finishing Touches Event Management and taken up my special voucher offer. They were looking for images that could serve as Christmas presents and general “pick-me-ups” and I think we managed to get those despite Louis not feeling at his best. As promised, here is your sneak peek … I found it too hard just to pick one …

And we had to listen to trees …

And “kiss” mummy …

I hope that you’ve enjoyed your sneak peek and that your little one is feeling much better. I’m looking forward to sharing your online gallery with you very soon! xx
