Book Your Spring Outdoor Family Photoshoot in Manchester Now!

I know, I know, it’s still the middle of winter! It’s cold, it’s foggy and it’s grey…But have you noticed that snowdrops are already starting to appear and the evenings are getting lighter?

Spring is just around the corner and we’re soon going to be surrounded by blossom on the trees and beautiful spring flowers everywhere!

It always feels as though people suddenly come out of hibernation as soon as spring hits, and I know I suddenly get a wave of bookings for my Cheshire outdoor family photoshoot services! I really love doing these, and I tend to fit them in around my main photography work as a Manchester wedding photographer. 

But the great thing about outdoor mini shoots is that they are easy to fit into your diary, affordable and a great way to get yourself some gorgeous, professional family images that you can use throughout the year!

  

Update Your Spring Home Decor With an Outdoor Photoshoot in Cheshire

Everyone loves switching up their home in the spring! Out go the heavy furnishings and dark colours and in come the fun, bright and light decorative pieces. (On that note, don’t forget to check out the latest Manchester photography prints and gifts in my shop! https://www.kellyclarkephotography.com/shop)

A lot of my clients love commissioning Manchester outdoor family photoshoots with their family at this time so they can print their high resolution photos and put them in large frames in their living spaces or bedrooms. 

If you’ve only got Christmas themed family shots on the walls, why not update them for the season with a spring outdoor photoshoot in Cheshire or Manchester? You choose the venue and I’ll work the magic!

The finished photos are high-resolution and perfect for printing as large as you want. And they look fab on accessory pieces such as bags, cushions, mugs, calenders or gift cards. You’ll certainly have plenty of images to pick from, and I know my clients have a lot of fun ordering their prints.

Why Grandparents Love Outdoor Family Photoshoots

I also take a lot of Manchester outdoor family photoshoots for families who have relatives on the other side of the country (or the world) as it’s a great way to send them beautiful updated shots of the kids, the adults, the pets – and whoever gets involved!

These beautiful memento shots are also ideal if you have family members who work away, as they can take your photos with them.

What Does a Manchester Outdoor Photoshoot Involve?

Basically it involves getting outdoors, relaxing and having some fun as a family while I work around you to take beautiful images in my trademark reportage photography style.

You choose the venue, which can be anywhere special to you, or even your back garden. If you’re not sure where to pick, just ask me for advice as I’ve done outdoor family photoshoots in Cheshire, Manchester, Lancashire, Liverpool and basically across the North West. There are so many beautiful spots to choose from whether you love parks, water, or even more urban environments. It’s a lot of fun!

Beyond the location, I simply suggest to my clients that they dress for the environment and to feel comfortable (best to leave the six-inch heels at home for these shoots!), and that they think about colours and any coordination they like. 

Neutral colours work best against an outdoor environment, and comfortable clothing and footwear translates into lovely relaxed expressions and plenty of natural, flowing movement. 

With small children it can also help to have some props such as a bubbles or a favourite teddy. If you have a pet dog, these furry family members can also provide tons of fun and personality for the shoot, and they inevitably get everyone moving and laughing!

What Will I Get After My Outdoor Family Photoshoot?

I offer full outdoor family photoshoots in Cheshire and minishoots, and you get an album of professional and fully edited photos in high resolution, ready to print onto anything you want. 

You’ll love the natural, emotion-filled photos that are always filled with laughter (even if it’s because things didn’t always go to plan) These outdoor family photshoots are designed to be fun, informal and completely non-stressful.

I do the hard work and you’re simply there to relax together, have fun and forget that I’m working around you.

What are the options for my Manchester outdoor family photoshoot?

I offer two options as follows:

Manchester Minishoot Family Session

Pick from the Manchester Minishoot Family Session, which I offer for 30-40 minutes at a location of your choice for groups of up to six. You’ll get 40 or more full-resolution and edited digital images afterwards.

Full Manchester Outdoor Family Photoshoot Session

For the full family photoshoot option, I spend up to two hours and can accommodate groups or families of up to 12 people. You’ll get a digital album of at least 80 full-resolution images. 

All of the images are sent to you via a secure online gallery which is password-protected but ready to share, print or save as you wish.

Can I have a Cheshire Outdoor Photoshoot with My Friends? 

Of course! You can choose whoever you want for your session. I’m completely flexible, within the two categories of photoshoot detailed above.

How do I book my Spring Outdoor Photoshoot?

It couldn’t be easier. Just contact me today to check which slots I have free in my calendar and we’ll get you booked. These Spring outdoor photoshoots in Manchester are also very easy to book in the week if you can do it, as my diary tends to be a little quieter away from weekends.
