Andrea Thomson is an award-winning Edinburgh portrait photographer specialising in relaxed, natural photos of families, small weddings and small businesses.
This was a house full of boy — mama Sorour is very much outnumbered! Such a lovely family in an uber-beautiful Edinburgh home, a photographer couldn't ask for much more than that!
Three hens, three horses, three ponies, one grandmother (with her own dog), two parents, two children and one more on the way. Please can I do all the rest of my photo sessions on a farm? So. Much. Fun.
Well this was fun! It was just after Hogmanay (don't let the jacket-less photos fool you - it was cold!), and how lovely is it to have a family photo session…
These guys were simply adorable - all four of them. The cutest children (and how amazing is their son's hair?!), photographed in their new home just before the holidays…
For at least an entire five minutes after I finished this session, I wish we'd had four children instead of two. The Reids were the largest family I've photographed yet…
These guys used to live in my neighbourhood and we eventually got to chatting on random street corners, at Starbucks, etc. So I was thrilled at the opportunity to photograph them at home…
The last time I photographed these guys, they were living across town and had one fewer child. I love being able to photograph a family as they grow, and it especially helps when they're so stinkin' cute.
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.
This one goes down as one of my favourite photo sessions ever. I can try to kid myself, but I am very much a city girl, having moved from NYC to Edinburgh. And these guys are city people, for sure…
This was a typical photo session for me, the kind I like the most. A Saturday in Winter. A family just doing their thing. A bit inside, a bit out. A few posed photos, but mostly me just lurking around in the corners (not in a creepy way!)…
I loved this Edinburgh photo session SO MUCH. These guys were moving down to London from Stockbridge and I arrived to a nearly-empty flat. We took a few photos there for posterity's sake, and then headed to their favourite corner store…
