Sometimes memories are created spontaneously but for many they are are
the achievement of goals or the result of decisions made long before.
And we all have them - as
individuals, couples, families, groups or companies. Those
moments in time that recognise steps achieved and targets
accomplished.
Sometimes these are monumental
and others simply small steps along the way but just as important. And
remember - it is what is important to you and not what others feel
that makes a milestone worth remembering.
Twenty years of marriage. The
launch of a family business. Your first marathon you run or something
really simple like the first meal you cook in your new home. Big
birthdays, finishing school or finishing the building of that extra
room that took so long. Something you have been working toward like
your first body building competition or that big promotion you did not
even expect.
Milestone shoots are a wonderful
way to capture the path of your life plotted along the
achievements that make you what you are today. They are the record of
life's events and often thread an amazing story when looking back
through them.
So the next time you reach a
milestone on your life why not give me a call and we get the creative
juices going to make a permanent
memory of the moment for you..

There really is no specified style for Milestone shoots.It is a combination of Portraiture and Events photography.
It is more of a concept than a style and is conceived simply to have a record of the milestones in your life what ever those might be for you.
A quiet evening at home celebrating the first day of retirement. A family get together when the last bond payment is made. A party to mark obtaining your degree. All these happenings big and small that are the milestones of our lives
If you are having a party then thats where its at. If getting
provincial colours for rubgy lets find a rugby field. If a year free
from cancer lets find a celebratory sunrise.
I always like to chat first about the actual milestone and then throw
around some ideas.
Not unless you really want to. This of course will depend on the
style of photos you are wanting
A good rule of thumb is always to be comfortable - unless you really
want to go all out and hire fancy dress outfits
Generally we will be looking to add something into the shots to speak
of what the milestone is. Either a prop or a clothing item if
possible.
