A weekend with Claire & Family | Surrey Family Photography
A few weeks ago I was lucky enough to be invited to Normandy, France with Claire and her family for a photo shoot. Claire may only live 10 minutes up the road from me, here in Surrey, but when you have France at your disposal – why not ?
Claire runs the very successful business Plantpassion, and is one of the most knowledgeable and passionate plant experts I know, and her blog is regularly updated with useful gardening snippets that we should all take note of – makes me wish I had a garden again!
So, for Claire and Ashley, the beach is a very important part of their trips over there, so we got up super early on Sunday morning and headed down, over the dunes, to catch the beach with the tide out. It was incredible to see how many cockle pickers were already up and hunting:
There was much splashing in the surf:
And this reminds me of a James Bond movie!
Tigger is a very important friend
And jumping is a very important game
We headed back down to the beach, amongst the dunes, later in the evening, to try and get some funky shots with the portable lights. This is my favourite shot from the entire weekend – how cool is this dude ?
A huge Thank You to you all for a cracking weekend!
These are beautiful photos Matt, Claire & her family must be thrilled with them!
What a fun looking portrait shoot and what a great place to head off to.
I bet Claire & her family love the photographs. I love the James Bond movie shot.

Wow! Amazing. And is that Claire in a dress??? Fantastic pics Matt. Claire must be over the moon
We love the photos! The last one of William is fab!!!!!! There again he is our nephew so we might be biased.
Thank you all, for the lovely comments – Yes, Fiona, Claire in a dress, can you believe it ?!?!
Huge thank you to you Matt, the photos are all lovely, and we had a real job not choosing all of them. They’ve captured our holiday atmosphere and scenery of the Dives Estuary fantastically and will give us wonderful memories for years to come, plus I love the music on your presentation DVD, – so apt.
Thank you Claire, and a very big thank you for the opportunity to chill for a few days too – much needed!
