So the leaves are turning colour and the air is beginning to get a little colder, your reaching for your comfy knits and boots once more. It’s got to be one of my favourite times of the year! We are preparing for a variety of photoshoots coming up and we couldn’t be more excited about it. We recently had an Addams Family style shoot with our family. We had planned and designed the concept for ages, bought costumes and organised our fabulous friend to do the make-up and hair styling. All was going so well until everyone got a bit tired and hungry. Imagine four children and two stressed out adults all in pale make-up, costumes and wigs. We got some fabulous pictures in the end and we have laughed at the end result which was all we hoped for. Getting to that point however was not plain sailing, next time get the children ready last!

Moving on though we have an autumnal cake smash coming up which is a great opportunity to get creative. We are building some new props and have ordered a cake with beautiful colours on it, can’t wait to see it! Every set though is bespoke. We have a consultation with the parents and design a scheme. With baby being born at autumn, it will be themed around that, so pumpkins and leaves at the ready. Each smash shoot finishes with a bubbly bath and a splash. The splash tub is also having a bit of a makeover at the moment, so watch this space.

Lastly it’s the festive season just beyond. We have had enquiries about Christmas photoshoots this year and we can tell you that we are prepping for them now. They will be officially released very shortly. We have the beautiful cosy traditional set with the fireplace and a little bit of Christmas magic, or the more modern hot coco bar. With our traditional wooden sledge, candy canes and hot chocolate, whichever set you choose it’s bound to make you feel very festive. It’s our first festive season at Broadstone Mill in our new studio. As i’m sure you will have seen by now, we have amazing views from our windows. The colours of the trees turning and the twilight sunsets are magnificent, we are looking forward to seeing it under a possible blanket of snow. If you ever fancy having a nosey and a chat about a photoshoot for yourself, then give us a call to make an appointment. We are always ready for a chat about new projects and the kettle is always on. In the meantime, enjoy the ever changing season, make sure you capture the beauty that is around you.
