So, here's a little introduction for you!
The Beloved approach to portrait sessions was created by a photographer named Jesh de Rox, and was originally aimed at long-term couples, to provide a space for them to reconnect and rediscover their love for each other.
Beloved sessions are all about the relationships and interactions between you and your loved ones. They aren't just about having your picture taken. They aren't really about that at all. They're an opportunity to take time out of the hustle and bustle of everyday life and remember all the things you love about your partner and your family, with the huge bonus of having beautiful photos at the end as a reminder!
During your Beloved session you will be 'invited' into the experience with questions and scenarios that allow you to reconnect with your loved ones and really think about all the things that make you love them.
Beloved as a technique has now evolved from the original idea of being just for long-term couples and has developed into a technique that works beautifully for a whole range of situations. I currently offer Beloved maternity, baby and family sessions, but am very open to the idea of working with couples looking to experience this kind of session but who may either not have children or whose children are already grown up!
If you're pregnant and want to have some quiet time with your partner before the baby arrives, to reconnect and cement the love you have for each other - Beloved is for you.
If you're pregnant and want some time just for you and your bump, to focus on the amazing experience of carrying a child and the connection between you and your baby - Beloved is for you.
If you're a new parent and want a few hours to stop and cherish the new life you have created and the love that surrounds this baby - Beloved is for you.
If you are a family who are juggling work, nursery, school, after-school clubs, sports and life in general, and you want some time together to reconnect, laugh and appreciate one another again - Beloved is for you.
Beloved is for anyone who wants to celebrate the love they have in their life!
