"Not surprisingly, many people do not like being photographed - they feel shy and self-conscious. I try and make the photo sessions relaxed, down to earth and fun. Being in a familiar environment or loved location helps everyone enjoy the session. I encourage my clients and especially the children to bring a favourite possession to have with them in the photograph. Doing so not only helps people feel more comfortable, but also adds a nostalgic touch. The best thing about a photograph is the meaning and memories attached to that particular time in your life."
