Each year I like to set myself a personal project and aim combine the images at the end of the year to create a small photobook. This year, i’d set the theme to be ‘sportskids’, aiming to photograph a few kids throughout the year – each doing their sport alongside some ‘power portraits’ of them unmasked. The project got off to a good start having photographed Basketball, Kayaking & Bouldering amongst others … and then covid hit! For obvious reasons, several months went by where I was unable to photograph and the project became a side thought. It was lovely therefore, when recently I finally got the opportunity to shoot some more sports and add them to the collection. Growing up, Tennis was one of the very few sports I enjoyed, and I knew I had to include it. These sessions took some time to arrange due to increased safety measures at the various clubs, but i’m so glad we got the opportunity to make them happen. Here’s a few of my favourites.
If you’d like to book a sporty photoshoot for your kids, why not send me a message. You could even a buy a photoshoot as a gift voucher, the perfect gift for family and friends! Just send me a message for more information.
