There comes a time in every family where the children eventually grow up and leave home, flying the nest to embark on their own lives and create a family of their own. As this happens, the parents may feel an emptiness in their lives. The once busy hustle and bustle of a full house is replaced by a quiet hush, a soft lull that can often feel lonely. The parents of course look forward to the time where the house comes alive again, with the happy squeals of grandchildren lifting their spirits and raising smiles once again.

Unfortunately, due to the hectic lifestyles of today, parents, their children and their grandchildren may find it hard to squeeze in the time to say hello. This is why I love it when the children of the parents come together once again to give a precious gift to their parents – the gift of a family portrait. A portrait which will become the focal point in the home, and a heirloom for years to come. Memories captured in time which bring so much happiness and pleasure and remind us that our family are never more than a heartbeat away.

 The families arrived ready for the photo shoot. It was lovely to sit and catch up over coffee. An hour later we had captured some wonderful images. We know that mum is going to be so pleased when she receives her gift.

Thank you all for taking the time to make this happen. We know it was well worth the effort.
