Edinburgh family photo session with Steels

Throughout the day Armands was both imaginative & patient & made us all feel very much at ease. We went to our local park where Elicia loves to play and just did what she loves doing. This was very different to any photoshoot we’ve experienced or heard of before. Armands was able to create beautiful real life images that capture the spirit and essence of our family.
I feel like we had a very special time as a family, focussing on Elicia. It really felt like a family day, not a photoshoot.

“When my children suggested having a family photoshoot done to celebrate my approaching 60th birthday I was both excited and nervous – the whole family are not together all that often, and there are quite a few of us including 5 children aged between 7 and 11 months! How were we ever going to get everyone in one place and all looking their best?
Then Joanne found Armands who not only did family sessions but did them outside where the children (big and small) could run about and have fun – and we could do all this at one of our favourite places for family gatherings – Gullane beach!”

This was my third time when we met to do beautiful photos. First time I met family when I was photographing little Kara’ s newborn photographs. Year and and a bit after I met Kara’ s little sister and did some gorgeous portraits of her and both of them together and now we came together for full family session. It is fantastic to meet families over and over and see how their families are growing.
Here you can see both girls. Chubby cheeks and those model lips :)

I offer choice of Edinburgh studio or outdoor portrait photography. Few of you might ask if it is not too cold to do outdoor family portrait and that is why I decided to share with you how your photography could look like at this time of year. It can be a bit more tricky to get the right weather, but for Allsopp family portraits it was quiet good overcast day on the Gullane beach
