First of all I love the name Seren – her mom told me it means “from the starlight” – isn’t that beautiful?
Seren’s session was great. Her mom was worried about whether her house would be a good spot for pictures. That is a really common concern with a lot of my clients, actually. I always tell people that I can make beautiful portraits anywhere, so we should do the session where the family is the most comfortable. So we decided on an indoor/outdoor combo session. When I walked into their home, the first thing I see is a gorgeous stained glass window, beautifully colored walls and some totally cute photo props – I was so excited! As much as I enjoy photographing people outside, I also really love photographing them in their home, especially children. It adds such a personal touch to the final portraits. I think the portraits mean more to the families as well, because of that personal touch that you can’t always get in a studio or even at a park. So go ahead, schedule a session with me in your home!
After we finished up inside, we went to the back yard where Seren got to play in the grass for the first time – and I got to be there with my camera! She seemed to like the grass quite a bit!
Here are some of my favorites from Seren’s session – enjoy!
