The Grandchildren together.

On Tuesday 22nd February, I had great fun photographing an action packed family shoot in York. Godfrey and Jackie received the photo shoot as a gift from their family to celebrate their Ruby Anniversary. They decided to get the whole family together for a special day, where they could create some memories and images that they would treasure.

We captured most of the photographs in Dawn, Evie & Layla’s cosy family home.  Dawn’s brother Richard, wife Nicola & their children Oscar, Fraser and Niamh joined in the photo shoot too. We used the lounge, the bedrooms and the bathroom! for the setting for a series of shots, then after some yummy lunch we wrapped up warm and headed outdoors to the local park.

I’m sure you can tell from the images in this blog story that we all had such a giggle throughout the day, capturing a huge variety of images. The children were hilarious and brilliant fun to photograph.

” I just want to say a big ‘thank you’ to the whole family for a great day, for making me laugh so much! and for the delicious lunch (Nicola – I need that recipe!). I really enjoyed meeting you all and can’t wait to show you the rest of the images in your photo reveal in a few weeks. Hope you like this preview in to some of the results from the shoot. See you soon, Gemma ”
