“The whole experience was truly exciting and something I will really remember. Every image that Darren produced was even better than I had imagined. They really did capture everything I was hoping for and lots more in a very natural environment.”
Professional special occasion photographer in Lincolnshire and UK
Life's special moments need to be not just celebrated but captured as well. Why not mark the occasion with photographic coverage of a christening or naming ceremony, a home photoshoot of a new arrival in the family or a fun outdoor photoshoot to mark a recent engagement?
Fun and relaxed engagement photography
A great way to celebrate your engagement is for a relaxed outdoor photoshoot. That way we get to know each other and you get to be comfortable when being photographed - especially important when combined with my Your Big Day wedding coverage. I will work with you to create beautiful images that are comfortable, relaxed and intimate.
Discrete christening photographs
If it's a christening or naming ceremony, whether in a church of other venue, I approach the day in very much the same way as I do a wedding. By letting me know what particular moments you most want documenting, you can rest assured that they are discreetly captured. Of course, I will also ensure that the small details you've spend ages organising are also recorded in a creative way and both planned and unexpected moments are photographed in a documentary manner.
Comfortable home baby and child photoshoots
A Life Moments home photoshoot can be used to mark the arrival of a new addition to the family. There's no need to take little one; along with changes of clothes, toys and all the other supplies you might need to a studio when images full of character and simplicity can be created in the familiar comfort of your own home. I take my time and wait for the moment to be right - working to little one's schedule, not mine.
Studio photography in your home
Life Moments home shoots are designed to be convenient and comfortable to you whilst aiming to give a simple contemporary 'studio' feel to your images. If there's a particular style that you'd like to replicate; I will work with you to ensure that you get the most out of your photoshoot, helping you to relax and giving you tips on posing you and your little ones.
Natural images to tell stories
Often during both home photoshoots and coverage of christenings and namings, those memorable little moments will occur which no one anticipated. I always aim to truly capture little one's reactions and every small detail to help create a complete record of your occasion.
“We booked Darren to capture some very precious moments of our nine-week-old son. I gave Darren one mission: to get a picture of him smiling! I wasn’t disappointed as he captured not only this but many more precious, intimate and quite stunning photos of our baby. Darren took his time and worked around our son.
The whole experience was absolutely brilliant and I’m sure we will be using Darren again at another milestone. I can’t recommend him enough. Thank you!”
“Been to collect our photos today and once again we were not disappointed! Anyone who can make my children look angelic deserves a medal. Thank you so much, Darren, we are so happy with them.”
“I was very nervous as I had never had a photoshoot before however as soon as I arrived Darren made me feel really comfortable and relaxed and even welcomed along my noisy dog!
I am really pleased and they will be saved for a very long time and looked back on as a very precious time in my life. I am very thankful to Darren for being able to share that with me!
Would highly recommend Darren for any special occasions or shoots.”
