Weddings 2018

IMG_8341.jpeg

I’m so pleased to say 2018 was another busy year for me, photographing weddings has quickly become one of my favourite things to do. When I’m not at a wedding on the weekend I’m busy editing one or thinking about the next one.

I’m extremely lucky to have another busy year ahead in 2019 and 2020 is already really full.

If you are considering Dani Rose Photography as your wedding photographer please don’t leave it too late to book. My diary is open now up to and including 2021 and dates are flying!

I cover wedding photography in Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire and abroad. I will consider any location and as a wedding photographer I love nothing more than a new wedding venue to capture!

I have wedding packages starting from half day coverage which is great for small weddings, up to full day packages covering the first couple of dances!

Booking is easy, let me know your date and venue, complete some paperwork and pay a deposit of £300 and the date is yours!

I look toward to hearing from you and would love nothing more but to share your special day with you.

Newborn Mini Sessions

New sessions in town!

First off, a big THANK YOU to all my mini models that came to the studio during April & May. We welcomed over 50 babies aged between birth and 5 months old for these new sessions which is just amazing.

It was great to meet every one of you and to capture all the personalities of your little babes.

I have lots of lovely images to share on my website now and a video of them all will hopefully be ready to share soon too.

 

Newborn Mini Sessions - what are they?

A quick 30-60 minute relaxed session, capturing your baby naturally as they are. A chance to catch all those little stretches and details.

A mini session is great for anyone that missed the posed newborn style window, or simply didn't want that style of images. Also great for the in-between stage of newborn and sitting up. Lots of smile and character can be captured at the 3-5 month stage.

No posed images are promised, and baby will be awake or asleep (however they are on the day).

These images do not include lots of props as we want to capture your baby as naturally as possible, arriving with a white vest is great and we will then strip down to a nappy. Most items used within the studio will be white/plain in colour so baby stands out.

NO parent or sibling images are captured during these sessions.

What do they cost?

The session time is £49 for up to one hour.

Packages start at £199, digital and print options available. Also albums and wall art.

The importance of a photograph....

IMG_6304 6x4 block.jpg

We all have that one or many cherished photos across the home, on our phone, computer, in frames or stuck to the fridge. 

A simple memory of our childs birth, first day of school, our pet, our partner, a grandparent or parent. Those memories we will never get back and some are quickly forgotten. 

How often do you dig out the albums and sit together and look back through the memories? Not often nowadays. We share the odd pic on instagram or Facebook, or send some to each other here and there. But we print less and less, we hold a memory in our hands less and less and children don't remember as much as we used to when we were small as they haven't the physical proof to look at.

Photographs are SO important for so many reasons, mostly of loved ones no longer here, or special occasions like birthdays, graduations, weddings and family celebrations.

So get printing people! When you order a print from me you will automatically be given the digital copy to keep and a mobile app, so why not have the best of both worlds? 

It is also so important to be IN the photos, but I will leave that for my next blog post. Children want to look back at pictures WITH us not just of them.

Weddings

As I am drawing near to the end of wedding season this year, I have been reflecting and looking back at all the wonderful weddings I got to be a part of. Thank you so much to everyone who booked me to be a part of your special day, it really was a huge honour and such a pleasure.

I have had a great summer attending weddings throughout Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire, Inverness and as far as Italy. Each and every one has been really enjoyable and such a treat! The weather played ball most of the time too, which was really lucky and on those days that weren't so great I was lucky enough to have some really brave brides up for battling the storm! 

I feel really lucky that so many people love my work enough to book me for a day that is so important to them and to produce images they will treasure forever. As I watch the bride get ready full of nerves and excitement, then the groom wait anxiously for his princess to arrive, the exchanging of vows which is so emotional every time, the hilarious speeches that allow me to know a whole lot more about the bride, groom and their families, and that lovely first dance as man and wife... I just count my lucky stars that I get to be a part of it. I always go home with such a warm feeling and can't wait to edit the images and photograph the next one.

I am really sad that all this fun will soon come to an end until we kick off again in 2017, if you are looking for a photographer who is natural, fun and loves nothing more than to give her clients the best she can then look no further!

My 2017 dairy is very full and my 2018 diary is now open for bookings. Please don't delay in securing your date.

Sitter sessions.

Sitter sessions are one of my favourite types of session. Capturing returning newborns once they are sitting up, smiling and full of personality. I can provide a number of outfit choices which I prefer to normal clothing at this age as it covers them enough but allows their little arms and legs to be visible and all that cute dimples and rolls that one day will be gone and missed dearly.

It's the cute stage between newborn and toddler and the images provided at a styled session are much more classic and timeless.

These sessions are short and sweet as little ones don't tend to last long in front of the camera, 30 minutes is enough for 2-3 outfits depending on the child and their mood on the day. 

For more information or to book please contact via email or the contact form.

Booking a newborn session

Most people book a newborn session after their 12 week scan, this ensures they have a guaranteed slot upon baby's arrival.

As we all know a baby rarely arrives on its due date so we book with that date in mind then confirm a day once he/she arrives and you are all well and settled at home. 

I can pose newborns from as early as 6 days right up to 6 weeks or more so don't worry too much if baby arrives early and requires some time in hospital etc before being allowed home.

The point of this post is really to make people aware that they really should book their session in advance and as early as possible. I have bookings now way into spring next year and rarely have spaces available at short notice.

To book simply give me an email or use the contact form and I will get back to you asap to confirm.
