I was recently asked by Joe Roberts, head of Brimscombe School in Stroud, to come along and take some shots of the school, the children and the grounds. The school was in the process of updating it's website and needed some current, professional images.

Despite it being rather overcast, it actually made for some lovely, candid images. The children loved playing in the rain with hula hoops and were getting very excited about the prospect of getting wet

I was there from 9am to 3pm in order to get a good overview of the general school day. The teachers were very accommodating, and even improvised a few lessons that might not have otherwise taken place, such as music and IT.

The brief was natural, reportage shots of the children both at play and in lessons. I was to also capture shots of lunchtime, the food and the hall plus images of the outside of the school building and playground, playing field etc. I was fortunate to be able to join the year 6’s in their outdoor learning, which always provides great content. Below is just a small sample of images from the 170 that the school received.

I do lots of different commercial jobs all throughout Gloucestershire and the Cotswolds, if you have something you would like photographed then please get in touch using my contact page or send an email to info@mouseabouttown.co.uk. Alternatively, give me a call on 07983 465414. Thanks.

I first met Michael and Julia last Autumn, when they had just finished kitting out their shepherd’s hut ready for lettings. Click here to see the photos from that shoot.

Six months later and the shepherd’s hut was looking better than ever, basking in the glorious Cotswold sunshine. They asked me back to take some up to date photos of its exterior and surroundings. They are keen to build up a portfolio of images that they can use throughout the course of the year, depending on the season.
