Vicky & Duane: Couple shoot at the pier.

I've been friends with Vicky since we started senior school and we were in the same form. Of course when you grow up and go off and do different things with your lives you tend to lose contact with people along the way. however recently I've found myself surrounded once again by friends from school that I have some of the best and memorable times with. A night on the tiles is not the same without this girl.

Vicky and Duane recently celebrated their one year anniversary and Vicky also recently moved in with Duane. So when she applied for my free couple session on October 16th I knew she'd be perfect for it. What better way to commemorate your first year together than with some pictures of the two of you.

We decided to go to the pier in Clacton, Essex and expecting it to be freezing cold I wrapped up, only to be sweltering by the end. Seems like the weather was on our side, and I'm glad because below are the results.

This is just me being a bit arty farty....

Thanks again you two :) hope you enjoy the results.

A Sneak Peak and News of Things To Come...

I'm having a bit of a change around recently. You may have already noticed from the changes to my blog, that I'm in the process of a touch of rebranding. I found my last logo and blog page a bit too bland, formal and serious so with the introduction of my new circular logo I decided to change my colour schemes and brighten the place up.

Now that the blog has had a facelift, my website will soon be updated to match. Content will be updated along with details of new wedding packages. The layout is changing and things are just going to be a lot more friendly. I'm looking forward to revealing it to you all :)

To tide you over until then, below is a sneak peek of a christening I photographed back in June. It was such a fun day, and a change to my normal portrait shoots.

Free Photo Session for a lucky couple.

I recently put out a request for two couples on my Facebook fan page to receive a free photo session in order to increase my portfolio of work. I had a lot of response for this and seeing as I have another free date in October I've decided that I would like another couple to come forward for a shoot.

Couple sessions are my favourite to photograph, they only take an hour and a half of your time and most importantly they are fun. I'm looking to add more to my portfolio because I love them, and it's this kind of session I'd like more bookings of in the future. 

The session will take place on Saturday October 16th in a location of your choice as long as it is fairly local. If you need any ideas for locations contact me because recently I've seen lots of places I'd love to shoot. You'll receive a CD containing 5 of the shoots best images and they'll also be added to Facebook for you to tag yourselves in.

Please note that this shoot will go ahead whether rain or shine. You may need a plan B incase it is pouring down and you do not want to be stood in the rain. If you do, thats great! Not got any rain soaked pictures in my portfolio yet!! 

To be considered for the free photo shoot please email me at kerrie@kerriemitchell.co.uk as soon as possible, letting me know a little about you and your ideas for the session. I look forward to hearing from you.
