A super relaxed Edinburgh family portrait session with the Provans

I adore these guys. So laid back, super creative (Donald is a very talented painter, Holly owns Doodles) and just lovely to be around. A photogenic family, full of love for each other. What more could a family photographer ask for?

More family portraits of the McAuslans +1 in Edinburgh

Oh how I LOVE a new baby. Not enough to have another one, mind, but how lucky am I to get to photograph babies and maybe even sneak in a cuddle, and then run? All the cuteness, right here.

Before a session, people often ask what they 'should do' when I'm there. Do what you do, I usually say. In this case, that meant whipping out some paper and paint and getting creative among other thigns, which I just loved.
