Mark, Eva, Oliva & Isla

Aug 2013

It was a pleasure to run around with Mark, Eva and their two girls as they played together. Like any 2 year old, Olivia was more than willing to play chase through some trees. Isla is 10 months old and was happy to smile for the camera provided she was allowed to be on the move to explore.

I will be the first to admit that when it comes to photo shoots with young children I tend to avoid parks with play equipment as a location. But when camera shy, Olivia had enough we decided to head for the play area. I stayed further back while the girls ran from one thing to the next I started to question my reasons for excluding them. Olivia dropped her guard (a little) once she was in her own element and I added a few more vibrant and fun photographs to the series.
