SWPP National Competition success – Memorable Moments

I’m delighted to announce that I recently found out that I was a runner up in a national competition organised by the Society of Wedding and Portrait Photographers (SWPP) on the theme of ‘Memorable Moments’.  My shot was one of the winners selected from over 175 entries from across the country.

My image was called ‘Unconditional Love’ and shows a moment of tenderness between a father and his new born child.

Do let me know what you think of the photo in the comments below.

I took the shot at a client's home in Stevenage in Hertfordshire using a pop up studio set up with my Elinchrom D-lite 2 studio lights.  We were quite limited on space for the shoot but I managed to get some great shots of the family and their new baby daughter.

I have been photographing the family over the last year and a half as part of one of my bump to baby maternity packages where I do a maternity shoot before the baby is born and then document the baby and family’s first year together.  I love undertaking these shoots as you get to meet the excited, soon-to-be parents and then follow them through that first year as their child grows and develops.

If you are interested in having a maternity or newborn portrait session yourself or know someone who might be interested, please do contact me by email or phone me on 07941 758887 to secure your session now.
