I met Collete and her husband Alex at Naunton Park rose garden, along with their two children, Barney and Maive. I photographed this family at Crickley Hill a few years ago, before Maive was born. This time around they booked a 30 minute shoot. Barney wasn’t keen on the idea of having his photograph taken, running away and hiding as soon as he knew the camera was near. In cases like this, one requires a great deal of patience and also a lot of, ‘let’s play hide and seek’ and other fun games, to try and help them to relax. Barney loved playing hide and seek, which involved him and his family hiding behind various trees. Obviously it’s a great photographic moment when I discover them and the smiles break out! Below is just a small selection of images from the thirty seven pictures they received in total.
