Maternity beach shoot near Cardiff
Maternity beach shoot near Cardiff
This maternity beach shoot near Cardiff, is one of my favourite shoots of 2019! I love maternity shoots and so I was super excited to have a client that wanted to meet on the beach at sunset. We're so lucky to have such a beautiful coast line so near to Cardiff.
She looked absolutely beautiful in her baby pink maternity dress, which perfectly matched the sky as the sun set. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect scenario. A walk on the cliff tops was followed by a small panic, (we thought the baby was going to make an early entrance!) but luckily all was well and we managed to get down to the beach just as the sky was washed in the most gorgeous pink hues.
A wonderful set of images for them to cherish and to show their son when he's older.
After each photo session, clients visit my home office to see their images in a slideshow. They also get to see a 9 image collage of images created especially for them. They can choose to order the 9 image collage as a print or in a multi-aperture frame. I really enjoy putting the images together to suggest how they might like to display their images at home.

I'm now offering limited edition beach mini sessions for 2020. You can book a shoot directly through the website, or drop me a line to find out more.

Beach Shoot in South Wales
A mini beach shoot in South Wales to blow away the cobwebs.
My girl and I got struck down with a horrible virus on Boxing Day and spent 2 weeks on the sofa sniffing and coughing. Each day we'd say to each other 'we'll be better tomorrow' and each day we woke up feeling rough. On the Sunday before school started in January, we decided that it was time we left the house and got some fresh air. I grabbed my camera and we headed down to our favourite place - the beach.
The beach looks great all year round. I love the pale tones of the sea and sky in contrast with the dark rocks and sand. The whole scene looked like Winter but was soothing and calming to look at. The rock pools at the beach provided a gorgeous reflective surface.
I discovered that my welly boot had a hole in it after standing in the water but I suffered with one wet sock so I could capture these images. What a brave solider I am!

South Wales Family Photo Shoot
My last blog post of 2018 and what a way to finish up a fantastic year! My aim at the start of the year was to do more beach shoots as I'm in love with the South Wales coast and I think it's safe to say I achieved my goal.
I absolutely love the images from this South Wales family photo shoot with the super talented lady behind Skratch Ceramics and her family. Check out her amazing work on Instagram! This shoot was wonderful - full of life and cheeky smiles, plus we had the most amazing pink sunset at the end of the session which lit up the beach in a peachy haze. We started off with a stroll around the gardens and then we headed down to the beach for a run around.
If you have a family photo shoot on your list of new year's resolutions, then it's not too late to buy a gift voucher for a family photo session. Pop over to my gift voucher page to find out more or send me a message for more info.

Sunset surfer beach shoot
My little girl is off to secondary school soon. It feels like such an enormous change and she's growing up way too fast. I wanted to capture her spirit now, before she changes into a full blown teenager and what better way than to spend an evening at doing a surf beach photo shoot with her best friends?
They've all known each other since they were born and have so many precious memories together. They hand picked their outfits, chose their accessories and got ready together (whilst eating pizza). Then, we headed to Southerndown beach (our favourite) for the shoot. We had lots of fun and I absolutely loved seeing the girls together enjoying themselves. You're never to old to enjoy splashing each other in the sea, right?
The beach is my happy place and I loved getting in the sea with my camera (a first!) to take the surf shots. If you are a beach loving family and would like to capture your favourite place with your favourite people then please get in touch to find out about my location photo sessions. Gem x
