Summer Holiday Time - Teen Photo Shoot Deal

I have an exciting deal for teenagers this summer. To celebrate the end of your exams, finishing school or college I am reducing the price of teenage photo shoots for one month only. This will include a photo session in a location of your choice in Colchester (or local surrounding villages) plus unlimited outfit changes and use of props. You'll also get your favourite picture uploaded to Facebook for you to use and an online gallery via my website.

Teen photo sessions usually cost £70 and £5 from every photo shoot is donated to Teenage Cancer Trust. For one month only I'm reducing the cost to just £20 per session and still donating £5 of that fee to Teenage Cancer Trust.

Even better than that if you book with a friend I'll photograph your sessions together for just £30 and still give a donation to TCT. That way you get an even better deal (just £15 each!) and the moral support of your friend on the day!

This is a great opportunity for you to put your prom dress back on for a chance to 'rock the frock' in a location where you'd never dream of wearing it normally. Like Sophie below who brought some vintage glamour to her derelict backdrop.

Even without a prom dress, teen photo shoots are like mini fashion shoots. You call the shots by bringing along what you like to wear and I'll work my magic to make you look fantastic. A usual photo session lasts about 1 - 2 hours. We'll walk around your location and incorporate as many different backdrops as possible.

After your photo session I'll visit you and your parents in your home to show you your photographs. There you can decide which you'd like to purchase and which picture you'd like me to upload to Facebook for you. All orders placed after your session will also generate a 5% donation to Teenage Cancer Trust.

There is no minimum order and product prices start at just £10. There really is nothing stopping you!!

The Teen Photo Shoot deal is available from 7th July to the 7th August 2011 and must take place this summer. Email kerrie@kerriemitchell.co.uk to book your slot now!

Millie- Teen Representative 2011 - Mersea Photo Shoot

Millie's teen photo shoot is so whimsical, girly and full of pastel colours,  I have been so excited to get it blogged.

We met at Seaview beach in Mersea which is where we found these gorgeous pastel beach huts lining the seafront. Having lived in Colchester my whole life I'm surprised I've never heard of this area or already been there, but it made a brilliant backdrop for Millie's photos.

Millie is like many other teens going through exams at the moment. So I wish not only her but all of you the best of luck for the coming few months. 

Remember if you're interested in your own teen shoot in a location of your choice a donation is made to Teenage Cancer Trust for everyone I book. I'm also now offering gift vouchers just email kerrie@kerriemitchell.co.uk and ask. They make the perfect present for good exam results!

Toyah & Nick - Valentines Couple Shoot - Walton-On-The-Naze

On the weekend before Valentines day I had the pleasure of photographing the lovely Toyah and Nick in Walton-On-The-Naze. With the weather being a bit on the cold side we had the luxury of a near deserted seaside resort to work with and made the most of the opportunity by taking pictures along the seafront, on the beach and on the pier.

These two were so fun to be around on the day, and they make a great couple. They know how to make each other laugh and had so many ideas for the shoot. Thats why you'll see some dancing on the beach, trespassing on fairground rides and snuggling in blankets, oh and we made them jump a bit too.

I collaborated with Liesl Cheney for this photo shoot. I'm sure she'll have her pictures edited and up soon so I'll be sure to link to them when they are.

Lynsey - Teen Representative 2011 - University of Essex Photo Shoot

Lynsey is a student at the University of Essex, so when she applied to be teenage representative for me I immediately thought the campus would make a great location for her photo shoot. We decided to explore a little and used an empty lecture theatre for some shots as well as the gardens and lake surrounding the campus.

Lynsey's photo shoot also took part on the windiest day ever known. But once again, worked in her favour by providing a great wind-machine. Some of the pictures even looked like they were taken in the summer with some clever trickery of the lighting conditions.

Couldn't resist the chance to shoot a Ellie Goulding-esque shot in the wind!

Thank you for coming along and braving the wind and cold Lynsey!

Teenage Representatives and The Teenage Cancer Trust.

I'm currently on the hunt for teenage representatives for Kerrie Mitchell Photography.

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.
