Family photographer Oxfordshire

I know this isn’t wedding photography, and I only took one of the photographs. But I thought I would share this with you anyway. I’ve dabbled in a bit of family photographer before, but I was too far away on this occasion. I was unable to give the gift of photography. Instead I decided to use some of the photographs she’d taken to make them a little more special.

My best mate’s little man turned one last month, so I decided it was time for him to pick a career path. I thought I’d give him some options to think about, from flying planes to keeping bees. Being a superhero to deep sea diving, he can do whatever he wants. I had a great time combining some of Hannah’s favourite pictures of him with some found simple line drawings. Clipart of uniforms and helmets, making him a pirate and a spaceman and making him play the drums. I can’t wait to see what he becomes!

I had a lot of fun trying to see shapes and possibilities in images.
