Portraits - Hamilton Portraits

Here is an odd wee story for you.

The last sitting I shot (Little Jack) had his pictures taken in Paisley at his grans house for convenience, even though he lives in Hamilton.  Jacks mum then recommended me to her next door neighbour. So, I travelled out to the very outskirts of Hamilton, almost 30 miles and an hour away, only to be met by someone I went to school with. In fact her best friend and my best friend were an item at high school. I don't think we had seen each other since we were both about 15.....small world, as they say.



Anyway, back to the pictures. And as you can see once again we came up trumps shooting young kids in their own environment. We started off baby Katherine's pictures with her in her party dress, before a few nappy shots in between a change of outfit. She was a lovely little girl but boy was she mobile.

Our next sitting was also in the Hamilton area but fortunately not too far away. ...........In fact it was next door.

Our next sitting was little Jack. He was an amazing baby to photograph. So much so that he now graces the front page of our revamped 1500.com site !

Jack was 5 months old at the time we took these shots - the perfect age (in my opinion) for baby pictures, is anywhere from 3-6 months.  At this age, although still a baby, they can usually support themselves, have formed a wee personality and have recognisable features that will stay with them for the rest of their lives.

You don't know Jack but I suspect you can already get a sense of his personality from the shots above.

Jacks mum then recommended us onto 3 of her friends to have their babies photographed too and as a wee thank you received a framed 12x10 as a token of our appreciation.  I'll post up the 3 sittings soon.

Potraits at Home – Paisley, Glasgow and Hamilton

Next we were off to Paisley again to photograph some regular clients (or their kids at least).

Over the last few years I have taken family pictures when every new arrival reaches 2 months old.

It seems like only yesterday I took pictures of their eldest daughter Lauren when she was that age. Now with the latest addition to the family, James, having his picture taken at the same age, its amazing to see how quickly they change in such a short time. A good reminder of how important it is to regularly photograph children as they grow.

Now that the family is complete I wonder if I will be able to persuade mum and dad to come into the shots...?
