Christmas

It's that time of year when there are lots of twinkly lights about and people mention getting some bokeh in their photographs. Are you thinking "What the heck is this bokeh thing?"? Well I can tell you, and give you some tips on how to achieve it.

Bokeh is where specks of light in the background of a photograph are blurred out into shapes or circles. All of the photos below were taken in front of Christmas tree lights.

I just wanted to wish you all the greetings of the season. I hope you're all ready for Christmas.

Thank you for reading the blog posts and for the continual support of my wonderful customers. It truly is an honour to create your memories.

It's getting towards that time of year when we're all starting to think about Christmas. Why not send a personalised Christmas card from your company to keep you in your customers minds? Who doesn't love getting an actual card through the post?

Introducing a new and exciting product for this year! Exclusive Christmas card photo sessions. These can be done in your home or on a location, so dig out your Christmas jumpers and create a unique greetings card to send to your friends and family this year. The Christmas tree is optional but if you're willing to put some Christmas decorations up then your card will look all the more festive!

It's not long to go until Christmas Day so I'm wishing you all a Merry and peaceful Christmas. Thank you to all of my clients and to everyone who has read any of my blog posts this year. Your support is very much appreciated.

PS if you like the image, it's available as a card from my art website.

These are a great idea for a Christmas wedding - bauble name place holders. Very festive and the guests could take them home as an additional favour.

With only 5 days to go until Christmas, I wanted to wish all of my clients and readers a very merry Christmas! Here's a photo of a knitted snowman - you can't beat a bit of bokeh at Christmas.

Thank you for taking the time to read my blog posts and follow my photography. I wish you all the best for the festive season.

This weekend I went round to my mum's to help her decorate her tree. Christmas is an ideal time to photograph bokeh...where specks of light are blurred in the background. In this photo I've used the Christmas card that I made and gave to my mum as the focal point, blurring the Christmas tree lights in the background.

This time of year is an ideal opportunity to have a family portrait and to buy Christmas gifts of the children for the grandparents. It's also lovely for you to have a photo of all of the family together. Usually one or other parent is taking the photo and gets missed out!

Season's Greetings to you all.
