Winter Blues

Traditionally the portrait business is the busiest in the Spring and Fall, this is something I've never quite understood, there seems to be whole chunks of the year when people don't want portraits of themselves and their families.

Speaking of my own family, winter is always the time I take more photos of the kids indoors for two reasons, firstly it is obviously cold outside, but secondly you get many more of those cloudy days which when everything is covered in snow, reflects much more light into the house, so you get wonderful natural light in just about any room. This works great for those more playful portraits of the kids in their own environment, especially the crib which so many parents over look as a great place for a baby portrait, or even just in the front room. Also you have the added benefit of being able to get whichever date you prefer as as I mentioned above, traditionally we're less busy, so come on, book today!
