Had a lovely family in for a photoshoot yesterday in our studio. The little girl was so dainty, she reminded me of a little flower. She was very shy at first but soon got into the swing of things, she then twirled and danced and screamed with delight and we got some wonderful photos. When the shoot was over we couldnt get her out of the studio, we were amazed at how appealing our studio had become. I always am happy when the children dont want to leave our studio because it means they have had a great time with us.
We have a crazy few weeks coming up due to a special offer we have on family photography in the Cornishman newspaper, but we are really looking forward to it, its lovely to fill the studio with laughing children. The best bit though is when the parents see the shoot, the smiles, even tears of joy, so worth it....
I always marvel how happy and positive children are, and the sound of a childs laughter has to be one of the best sounds in the world, if only you could photograph sound.
Ricky is really busy editing at the moment and laying out a digital photobook, the end result is always so worth the hours and hours he puts into it. I think this one is so special that we may order re-prints to show future brides and grooms and take along to wedding fairs when we are exhibiting our work.

Is anyone else getting the vibe that spring is on its way?
Spring time bring's new life: flowers, farm animals, birds and BEAUTIFUL BABIES!!!!!
So check out our on-line gift page, we have just launched personal birth announcement cards.
You bring your new born baby for a studio session and give us the necessary details name,weight etc. and we design you fantastic cards. Ricky has designed them all, so there really is nothing else like it anywhere. I especially like it as its almost like sending a gift to your nearest and dearest, beautiful pictures of your baby, they are just so gorgeous they should be framed!
Wedding bookings are coming in thick and fast now, again I think its because spring is in the air, everybody seems to have got the wedding fever, and we also have a booking for a summer christening, twin girls arriving from America to make their debut in England, meet the friends and family here and get christened at the same time, how wonderful. Definitely deserves a professional photographer on board, and we feel honoured to be asked.

We can't believe it actually snowed in St.Ives, big fat flakes, that settled.
To be honest we were all set for a kind-of day off, apart from a bit of admin, bit of this, bit of that, few print orders to go out, nothing major, AND THEN IT SNOWED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It was like panic stations, we had to get photos and fast, the sun was still shining through the flakes, it could melt in a moment. We threw wellies hats and gloves on and practically ran to Porthminster beach. I really wanted to be a big kid and just make snow angles on the sand and throw it all in the air, but not many people had made it down yet and the beach looked like it had a stunning, crisp white blanket thrown over it, and I didn't want to ruin any shots.
We got some good work, i had never walked on a snowy beach before and there was something quite mesmorising watching the waves lap onto snow, it held a kind on un-real magic-ness about it. It also felt very strange under foot, the snow rubbing onto the sand, it reminded me of those fun-houses at the fair we used to go into with the floor that moved in different directions.
All too soon the masses arrived, a frenzy of excited children and wild crazy snow fueled dogs, the cameras got put away and we kicked the snowy sand, churned it up with our feet and enjoyed an hour or so of child like fun, then we went for very grown up hot chocolates in the sun shine.
