Outside with James in Greenwich Park

On Sunday I had the privilege of photographing a friend’s son James, who is ten years old. We chose the Royal park of Greenwich just before sunset, home to the Observatory, National Maritime Museum and the Royal Naval College.

Meet James!

James is a very sweet boy, and also *very* lively and I put my marathon training to good use as I chased him around the park up the steep hills and over fences up to the top of the hill!

He particularly enjoyed rolling down the hill afterwards, getting rather muddy!

The sun was just starting to dip behind the trees when we decided it was just too chilly to stay out much longer.

It was lovely to meet you both and I certainly kept warm chasing James around!

On location with gorgeous 13 month old Lewis

Lewis is a gorgeous and cheeky 13 month old boy, who lives North of the River with his mummy Claire and his daddy Ian. Although I know Claire online, this was the first time I had met her and her family so this was my first time shooting really new people!

It went very well – Lewis was great for the camera (it’s true what they say about photographing other people’s children – it is much easier!) pulling faces and dancing, and I managed to capture some great expressions!

As he’s only little, I ran out of time to try different backdrops so these are all on my Arctic White paper.

So.. meet Lewis!

Once again, it was a great pleasure to take these photos – thank you to Claire and Ian for letting me borrow their sweet little boy for an hour!
