A blog by Milton Keynes Photographer Becki Williams full of photo shoot examples and information for expectant parents and families with young babies in Milton Keynes.
There are not many photographers who won’t have ever heard the phrase:
‘That’s a great camera, no wonder your pictures are so good’
Now there is no denying that the right equipment can make a huge difference to the quality of your images, but today, I’m here to bust this myth!
Read MoreI love an autumnal Newborn Photo Shoot.
To be honest I like any photo shoot where I can use a new season as inspiration but Autumn has got to be up there as one of my favourites.
Give me pumpkins, leaves and warm tones and I am a happy girl.
Read MoreNewborn photo shoots are one of my favourite things to photograph.
Meeting new and expanding families and getting to know them is extremely special. They come to my home studio in Milton Keynes when their baby is only one week old and trust me with their most precious cargo to capture photos for them to treasure for the rest of their lives. If that’s not special, I don’t know what is.
Read MoreYou only need to look at Daisy’s happy, cheeky face to see how this cake smash went!
She loved to clap, crawl and climb right into the cake!
Read MoreOh my gosh Daisy, you were so much fun!
I see all kinds of babies when it comes to Cake Smashes in my studio. Babies who are a little cautious, babies who are neat. Some find the cake quite uninteresting and others - well they go crazy and dig right in.
Once we got started, Daisy did not hold back!
Read MoreCharlotte’s newborn photo shoot really was amazing.
She was the perfect amount of asleep and awake, at all the right times.
We started with photos of her and her mummy, which she slept soundly through. I ADORE these images and know she will treasure them when she grows up.
Read MoreYou’ve been waiting for what seems like forever, but finally you’re in your third trimester and your September baby’s arrival is a few short weeks away.
Wait, what!? All of a sudden you feel like you’re running out of time to be prepared and that nesting instinct is well and truly kicking in!
Read MoreAs a photographer, I’m always being asked by friends, families and clients for tips on how to take better photos.
Most of us carry a camera around with us in the shape of our mobile phones. In fact, you could say people take more photographs now than ever before.
Think about how many photographs you take of your family that never quite make the grade and end up being deleted. It’s not as easy as it looks to get everyone looking in the same direction, smiling and with all of their limbs in the frame!
Read MoreAre you expecting a baby this September?
September is the month with the highest birthrate and therefore my busiest time of the year for newborn shoots!
I thought it was a great time to pull together some September baby fun facts. Feel free to share them with any mums who are due this September.
Read MoreYour summer holiday plans can easily be disrupted when rain stops play - literally.
If you find yourself with ruined plans today and are looking for something to entertain the kids, I’ve got you covered.
Honestly, where do we start?! Milton Keynes has so many indoor activities for kids it’s hard to list them all but here we go…
Read MorePeople’s opinions of how long your baby is a ‘newborn’ for does differ wildly. In this article, we’ll discuss this from a newborn photography perspective so that if you are planning a portrait session for your baby you can be well prepared.
Read MoreIf you are wondering if you really NEED newborn portraits, then the answer is no. It’s not an essential purchase like your baby car seat or your pram.
BUT here are all of the reasons my clients tell me they are so grateful they made the decision to book their newborn photo shoot.
Read MoreMoving house is one of the most stressful things you’ll ever do (up there with divorce apparently. And I imagine moving house causes a few of them!) Add in the fact you’re moving to a new town, a new county and oh yeah, it’s all happening through a global pandemic (!) and you’ve got yourself a doozy.
So why did we feel the call from the roundabout haven itself, the big MK, Milton Keynes?
Not every child will love reading and that’s absolutely fine. We all have our own ways of learning or escaping to a new world and whether that’s through books, art, play or however they naturally express themselves, embrace it and let their imaginations run wild.
If your child does love books as much as I did as a kid, enjoy every pre-bedtime cuddle with a good book and go on as many exciting adventures with them as they’ll let you. They will look back and treasure the memories just like I do.
Read MoreWith most splash parks closed due to COVID in 2020, lots of children are missing out on long, hot summer days playing in the water.
Well, COVID may have taken our splash parks but it cannot take our rivers! Here are some ideal places for your children to dip their toes in the water this summer.
Read MoreYour holiday abroad has been cancelled (thanks a bunch COVID19) and you’re left with week booked off of work with no plans.
May as well cancel it, right?
Hold your horses - maybe not! Many families are embracing a 2020 At Home Family Staycation.
After being spoilt with a lovely, sunny Spring, Summer is now here and so is PYO season.
A trip to a Pick Your Own farm is a great idea for a family day out and as a plus, you come home with a punnet full of Strawberries, Raspberries, Blackberries or lots of other lovely fruit.
Read MoreWhile I watched my best friend jet off to Antigua in the summer holidays, I was being packed into the back of a car between my big brother and sister (as the youngest I always got crammed into the middle seat) with bags of food in the footwell and duvets on our laps on our way to a campsite for the weekend - and I loved it!
Read MoreLooking for the perfect personalised Father’s Day gift?
Send me some images (phone photos are fine) and I'll turn them into a 'DAD' or 'DADDY' word art digital image for you.
Read MoreWhen planning her Cake Smash I knew that Sophie needed something nice and colourful. I’d been wanting to try a balloon arch for a while so a Rainbow theme seemed like the perfect idea.
