Mini sessions at Mayfield Lavender

The gorgeous sunny weather has made all the lavender come into bloom now at Mayfield Lavender so it should look very beautiful in the mini sessions I’m doing there on Monday 5 August. I have a slot left at 11.15am so please get in touch asap if you would like to book it. You can see details of the mini sessions here

Why not make the most of the school holidays to get some up-to-date family photos. Here are some photos from lavender sessions over the last few weeks.

I’ve just had the storyboard frame back from one of the sessions and wanted to share it since it’s so beautiful. Enjoy the sunshine this weekend!

Summer shoot in the lavender – and announcing more mini sessions…

Every time I look outside today it’s raining and dark-like-night-time. So it has been lovely to have such happy, sunny photos to edit to take my mind off the miserable weather. These are just a few of them from a shoot on Monday with two very gorgeous girls… They had lots of fun chasing squirrels (in a friendly way), twirling and eating ice cream (after the shoot).

I have another morning of mini sessions in the lavender planned for Monday 5 August. You can see details of mini sessions here Please get in touch if you would like to book one as they get booked up very quickly. I’m looking forward to some summer sessions tomorrow morning (fingers crossed the weather forecast is right and the sun will be shining – or at least have stopped raining). Have a lovely weekend…

Family portrait session in Wimbledon Village

Back in April, on the first sunny day we’d had in ages, I did a family photo shoot in Wimbledon Village with a very lovely baby girl and her mummy and daddy. The shoot had been booked as a birthday present for her proud daddy earlier in the year and he received a beautifully packaged gift voucher for the shoot to open on his birthday.

After the star of the shoot had had a little nap and some milk she was ready to show off her beautiful blue eyes and some very sweet smiles too.

Jo was really flexible and suggested some great shots. She put us all at ease, which showed through Isla’s excellent behaviour throughout!’.

Below is the lovely mini photo album/boasting book featuring photos of baby Isla too. This is the height of an iPhone so it fits into a handbag and holds up to 15 images so it makes a lovely gift. I sell lots of these mini albums and keepsake accordions since they’re a lovely way of preserving memories from your shoot. Please contact me for details.

Spring mini sessions in Bushy Park – part three

Here’s another of the spring mini sessions I held earlier this year in Bushy Park. After several attempts that were thwarted by very bad weather, we were finally lucky and managed a morning in May where the blossom was out and the sun even shone…

This mini session starred the very beautiful Jess and her dad who wanted to surprise Jess’s mum with some photos of their daughter for her birthday.

After the session Jess’s dad sent over this lovely testimonial: “I found Jo to be a true professional. The location she suggested was perfect, and the photos were great. It was the first time I’ve used a professional photographer for photos of my daughter, and the end results exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend Sweetheart Studio.”

I realised that I don’t often show photos of orders packaged up and ready to be delivered, although I always photograph them. So here’s the personalised DVD and gift prints included in the mini session package all ready for delivery… Don’t forget that I still have slots left for the summer mini sessions on Saturday 29 June.
