Why a family portrait

The photograph you will wish you had taken.

Families change faster than anyone notices. Children stretch, grandparents soften, the dog goes grey around the muzzle. A family portrait holds one version of all of you together, made with enough care to hang in the room where you gather.

Generations belong here too. Three or four of them in one frame is a session we plan on purpose, with the older ones seated and comfortable and the youngest free to be themselves.

Before anyone grows up, moves out or moves on.

In their words
Simon is amazing and I would not hesitate to recommend him. I treasure all the family portraits he has taken of my family over the past 15 years. Feel so lucky to have found him. Always impossible to choose a favourite photo as they are all so fantastic.
