Nikki and Family Portrait Shoot

Going back a few weeks - Nikki contacted us requesting a portrait shoot for her mums birthday with her sisters.

A few weeks later and it's the day of the shoot. The clouds are brewing and the threat of rain has never looked more likely. I believe that family portrait shots shouldn't be posed in a studio - so outdoors was our only choice.

We arrived on location and the rain started, as though it was just waiting for us to get out the car. We started with a few mother and daughter shots in a relatively sheltered part of the park, but it was clear that the weather wasn't on our side.


But Nikki and family are a great bunch and were really co-operative with getting the shots they wanted. After a few shots in the rain, the girls seemed to forget it was pouring down and got on with the shoot, even braving a few without umbrellas.


There was the occasional bright spell, but the day was really dominated by a depressing drizzly cloud hanging over the park.

Thankfully, mum and girls saw the funny side of it all and we got some great shots. Amazingly, in some shots it actually looks warm/dry. I'm sure they'll back me up on this....It wasn't! It were bloody freezing!


Great photos though and that's all that matters :) Thanks guys, hope to see you all again sometime!
