Grimsby/Gainsborough Family Photographer { Family Session in Gainsborough }

We're not ones to blow our own trumpet, but our customers are happy (That's what they tell us), and one of the ways that we are sure that they're happy is they refer family & friends to us.

This featured session, came to us as a recommendation also. Not just from one happy customer, but from two previous customers.

Here is the background...

So, the phone rings, and on the other end is Mrs K. She tells me that she has been recommended by her friend, and her sister. After the quick discussion of prices, we arrange a date & time, and the session is booked.

So, the day of the session arrives, and we get the gear into the car, and head off to Gainsborough - We do a fair amount of work in Gainsborough, And have a fair amount of customers out that way.

Upon arriving at Mrs K's house, and am greeted by Mr. K. I start to unload the kit from the car, and get it into the house. Ensuring of course that my car is not parked so it wont cause an obstruction to her neighbors.

With everything inside, we start to set-up. In this case, they'd cleared kitchen for me, so we had a good sized space to work with. We can setup in a small space (Around 7ft wide), but in this case, the space was well over 10ft wide, and about 15ft long, so there was ample.

All set-up, and a quick talk with the Mr & Mrs. K and what they want from the session, and any images that they really want to achieve. We begin with the daughter. This is usually the case, as we find that the girls are the most willing to pose, and have their photo taken. Then onto the boys, and the family shots.

Now, all of our sessions are a little more informal than the usual Sit & Smile type of portraits, we try and get the family to interact with each other, and have a play and a laugh. Laughing makes for a much better photo than a posed smile.

Each session lasts around an hour, so it gives us plenty of time to get the images, and to have a laugh and a play. To let the character and personality of the individuals to come through. As well as givng us plenty of images to choose from.

Usally, we would show a few of our favorite images as a montage here, but this time, I have compiled a short slideshow, as a video "Teaser" for the customer, and I thought that i'd share that here instead this time.

I would to hear some feedback on this "teaser".
