I loved this beautiful Autumn family shoot at Dalkeith Country Park. It was early November so we were very lucky to catch the last of the vibrant Autumn colours. The weather forecast wasn’t good at all but we decided to push ahead and try to make the most of it and I’m so glad we did. Everything came together perfectly. The rain held off for us and fellow photographer Jill had styled her family to perfection with Autumn colours for their Autumn family shoot. Even their dog matched!! Jill and her family go to Dalkeith Country Park a lot for walk and knew some lovely spots which I hadn’t seen before. When she first got in touch to book a session she mentioned she was really keen for me to capture plenty of photos of her with her boys. Typically, being a photographer she had lots of photos of them but hardly any of them with her. I made sure I took a good variety of shots during their Autumn family shoot. Jill and Colin’s boys were little stars and were so easy to photograph which really made the shoot a breeze! Thanks so much for trusting me to capture your lovely family!

I loved this relaxed family photography shoot in Edinburgh earlier this year. It was a slightly overcast but warm day, perfect weather for an outdoor shoot. Everyone’s clothing was beautifully colour coordinated and this extra thought from Charlotte really made a difference to the end result. I am always happy to suggest clothing colours that work well for each season. I have Pinterest boards of outfit ideas for each time of year which can guide families in the right direction.
How cute are 4 year old Sam and baby Nina together! Sam wasn’t too keen on having his photo taken. Thankfully he came around when I suggested climbing a tree and running around having fun.

The colours this Autumn were stunning and I wanted to share this lovely family photo shoot in Livingston from early November. We met up at a local woodland area in Livingston and spent around an hour just walking around, chatting and generally having fun. The photos were really varied even although we only covered a small area, this is why I love working outdoor so much the backdrops are endless. Dan and Debbie also did a great job of choosing outfits and a colour scheme that not only looked great together but also against the Autumn backdrop.

I just loved this recent family / toddler photography session in Edinburgh. It was on a lovely sunny day at the start of Autumn at one of my favourite locations for family photo shoots. The weather and colours were perfect. Little Joshua had recently turned 1 and started walking not long before so it was nice to capture him on the move. He was good as gold for me and super cute with endless smiles.

I loved this Autumn family photography session in Edinburgh. The orange and yellow Autumnal leaves looked amazing, the weather was perfect and to top it off Rachael is a fellow photographer so did a great job styling her family! The yellow / orange clothing and accessories they chose to wear added an extra pop of colour which worked brilliantly. 1 year old Ollie and his older brother were so cute together, I just love the shot of them both with the falling leaves.

I really enjoyed this relaxed wedding anniversary photography session in Edinburgh. These were taken back in August when the whole family of twelve had come together for a holiday to celebrate their parents 50th wedding anniversary. The families live in various countries so it was very special for them all to be together again. They were keen for me to take casual photos of everyone in the back garden of the house they stayed at to capture the occasion. Everyone had a great time which really comes across in the photos.
