I'm delighted to announce that one of my portraits has led to me retaining a trophy for the third year in a row at my local photographic society in the annual 'People/Person' set subject competition.  This image scored a maximum 20 out of 20 and helped secure my win.

The shot was of a father and his 6 week old baby girl and is one of my personal favourites as I feel it shows the amazing connection between the two subjects.  I call the image ' Unconditional Love' which says it all I feel.

Here it is (image shown after the jump....)

Following on from Laura's maternity photo shoot back in August, I was delighted to hear that her baby girl, who is called Miley, was born a few weeks ago and is now home and doing well.

We had arranged for a newborn baby photo shoot in October and the images below were taken during that session.

A few weeks ago I photographed Laura from Stevenage for her baby bump photo shoot after she contacted me via my Bump2Baby Portraits website.  All of the images you see in my post have kindly been personally approved for inclusion by Laura herself.

The package that Laura chose was my Bump To Baby Deluxe package which includes a maternity shoot, then a newborn shoot followed by a shoot at around 4, 8 and 12 months during the baby’s first year.

We’ve provisionally scheduled the newborn shoot for next month and I look forward to seeing their baby grow over the course of the year.
