Childhood Themed Portrait Shoot

by Taunton Portrait Photographer, Mark Cox Photography These childhood and festival themed images were shot as part of a styled shoot I was lucky enough to win with Aspire Photography Training in Burton-in-Kendall, Cumbria.  Each year at  Christmas the Guild of Photographers  has its annual 24 Days of Christmas prize draw.  In the 2015/16 draw I was lucky enough to win the Childhood styled shoot with Aspire.  I like to invest in some photographic training each year to keep my mind fresh.  As a result this was a great opportunity not to be missed!  Although not a formal "training" day, [...]

Baby Photography – Phoebe

by Portrait Photographer, Mark Cox Photography. I love being asked to photograph a new baby.  A new addition to the family brings lots of fun and joy to all and this one was no exception.  This session took place some time ago and this little lady must be nearly 8 months old now.  However, looking through my work from last year for a "Best of" blog post I knew I had to share.  My baby photography normally takes place at home where the family and new baby feel comfortable. There are no time pressures on the shoot as we just [...]

Family Portraits – Ruby Anniversary Present

by Portrait Photographer, Mark Cox Photography. Family Portraits are fun! Being able to capture the fun of a special family occasion such as a birthday, anniversary or just a family get together is a privilege.   The location does not have to be a studio.  In fact some of the best portraits are taken at a favourite location such as a park or on a walk or even at the beach!  As people feel comfortable in familiar surroundings they tend to relax and enjoy the experience of a family portrait shoot.  I recently met up with 3 families who had [...]

Fun Family Portraits – A Walk in the Woods with Belle, Gary and Louis

by Portrait Photographer, Mark Cox Photography. I love to make every family portrait shoot fun and this one was no exception.  I received the booking for the session all through my Facebook Page.  Following a series of messages, the time and location were set without even meeting the client as they lived in Australia.   The location was to be the beautiful Weston Woods near Weston Super Mare.  Having not met or even talked to the family on the phone before the shoot, I was a little apprehensive about how the shoot would go.  I need not have worried, Belle, [...]

Family Portrait – A Walk in the Woods

by Portrait Photographer, Mark Cox Photography. As a Taunton family portait photographer, living in Somerset, I love Autumn and the colours it brings.  A few weeks ago before Winter set in, I had the opportunity for a family portrait shoot at Wellington Monument. Nearly all of my family portraits are done on location either at the family home or their favourite family location as I believe it helps them to relax.  With relaxed clients I am in a better position to capture the true personalities of the people I am photographing.  It also allows me to have fun with the [...]

Harry gets Christened….

by Taunton Portrait Photographer, Mark Cox Photography. A few weeks ago I had the privilege of photographing the christening for this little chap at All Saints Church, Dulverton. It was a fabulous day with so many family and friends and good weather! After the service everyone gathered at the local pub, The Bridge Inn for some food. As a Somerset portrait photographer I love photographing christenings and baptisms, they are like weddings for little people! It is one of those important times when growing up and I feel honoured to be asked to photograph it. Below are my favourite images [...]

Harry – Pre-Christening Shoot

by Taunton Portrait Photographer, Mark Cox Photography. A few weeks ago I posted some images of a family portrait shoot I did with little Harry that were taken last year - you can see these images here. Last weekend I met Harry and his mum again for a pre-chrstening shoot.  Just as with all wedding clients the aim of this portrait session is to get the client used to be being photographed. In the case of little Harry, this was not a problem! An added bonus of this session is that I can produce a fabulous framed and mounted print [...]

Little Harry’s Portrait Shoot

by Portrait Photographer, Mark Cox Photography. This portrait shoot was taken earlier in the year.  However, with my new website now up and running I couldn't resist sharing some images on the blog pages.  I first photographed Harry as part of a family shoot - such an adorable little boy.  Now what makes it even more of a privilege for me, is that I have been asked to photograph his Christening in a few weeks time. So, in preparation for the Christening I am taking another portrait shoot with him tomorrow (Sunday 27th July), and from this shoot I will [...]
