Hi I'm Ann-Marie, I'm passionate about capturing your family as they really are. I understand family. No two families are alike & this is the wonderful part for me as a family photographer. As a mother of 4 young children I understand how the thought of a photo shoot could be daunting: What if the weather isn't right? What if the kids are tired? What if they don't want to pose for the camera? I get it. But I want you to know that all of these worries & concerns won't affect the special moment where I can capture your children for who they really are. I know many people worry that they won't be able to pose for the camera or find it intimidating or uncomfortable to be on the other end of the lens that's why it's important to me to capture your family as the individuals they are. No expectations or demands on the family. There's little point in having a photo shoot of your family to look back on if you don't recognise the people in the frame. We are who we are & we need to have photo's we can smile at or that trigger a memory of a great day where the family all got together, had a great time, laughed, smiled, played around & someone was there to freeze that moment in time. There is beauty in a thoughtful moment, there's humour in a cheeky joke between siblings, there's entertainment in a tantrum & there's a million unsaid words in a look between parents. Let's put these moments in a frame forever.
