"Spring Is a Time for Plans and Projects" *
As things around us are becoming a little brighter, here at KHP we are certainly feeling a spring in our step. The days are getting warmer and longer, the birdsong louder and the colour of the fresh green bulbs and their delicate flowers stronger.
We are feeling ready and energised to start planning so that, when the time comes, we’ll be ready to spring (last spring pun… promise) into action to capture your precious 2021 moments.
Will you choose a backdrop of bursting bluebells, lush forest greens, beachy sand and sea or edgy urban textures? We will work with you and this wonderful season to create memories to last a lifetime.

Hello Autumn My Old Friend...
Here at KHP we love the photographic opportunities a new season can bring to a portrait, and we give autumn top marks for gifting us its stunning mix of strong, warm colours and the golden mellow light of its lowering sun.

A Summer Portrait Guide to Locations
Summer! We love it! A time when our spirits seem a little higher, our mood a little lighter and the sunshine gives us energy to spring out of bed on light mornings and make the most of the long nights.

Hitting the Beach
The beach is probably the most obvious place to start for a summer portrait. With its unique lighting, open skies and wide variety of natural textures, not to mention all of those nostalgic childhood associations, it’s no wonder it’s such a popular location.
Plus, it totally rocks as a blank canvas for a silhouette composition – look at this family of five strutting their stuff under that high, dazzling sun.
And if you take a step back from the shore you are often gifted with a fine palette of colours and solid wooden textures of a beach hut or two, brilliant for bringing that unmistakably British coastal vibe to your image.
