They say….. children and animals are best left alone in the photography world and to be fair, you would be forgiven for agreeing but in this case, it was a blast – such cuties. Once everyone had got use to the strange guy with the camera in his hand and – what must have appeared to be gigantic studio lights to the little ones, (They are actually small as far as studio lights go – but very portable), we had a blast.

Big shout out to Sally for organising and arranging her girls to enable me to get the shots required, an amazing mornings shoot. The last time we did this was before lockdown and I’m sure we got through the shoot in about 2 hours – once a few girls had arrived and I started shooting, I turned round half an hour later and saw the hall behind me filled with ballet dancers waiting their turn. Three hours later and we were done although the time flew by so quick!

I have to say - It is indeed hard work, you have really got to keep your eye engaged to capture the correct poses and with a lot of poses difficult to maintain, get the shot quickly but it’s a lot of fun and with Sally there to help, plus the added sense of humour, not just from Sally, but also the cheeky push back from her girls, had me chuckling – which is bad – need to focus! :D
