Day 144 - Family Fun

Another photo shoot today and this time it was in Center Parcs in Sherwood Forest. Dean is one of my BNI contacts and he'd asked me to go along to Center Parcs to get some photos of his family as they were there celebrating his mum's 50th birthday. I arrived at about 10am and spent the morning taking photos of the family in the adventure playground and also at the beach. They were a lot fun and so easy to photograph although it took a little bit of time for Harry (aged 2) to agree to having his photo taken! By the end of the morning I felt like I'd known them for years and Harry and I were best friends...helped by the fact we chose the same ice cream! I then took more photos for them on Friday evening as they took their mum out for a surprise birthday meal at the Blue Room in Woodseats. I think she'd had an amazing day and won't forget this birthday for a long time. As I left she was very sweet to tell me that I'd made her day! It's such a privilege to be part of such special events in people's lives and get to capture their memories for them.
