5 Little Boys Media

5 Little Boys Media One of the most popular photographers in the area, Karen's style is very much informal. Her images are refreshing, natural & fun. Thankyou for visiting my page.

I've had an interest in photography since a young age when I returned home from a school trip with 5 rolls of 35mm film to be developed. Not cheap I can tell you! I studied A level photography as part of an Art Foundation course back in the pre-digital days before moving into the employment sector! After college I disappeared abroad working as a holiday rep in Greece, Spain & Malta and armed with

a small 35mm compact had a vast portfolio of travel photos that were used in our welcome books and boards in resort. Returning to the UK for a 'proper' job working for HP I was introduced to the digital camera and was lucky enough to have the use of various digital compacts. It was only after 'retiring' from the rat race & having the 5 Little Boys that my photography got serious. I embarked on a 365 project (1 photo a day for a whole year) but as I don't do things by half I didn't just do a project for myself but also 5 more, one for each of the boys. Not only has this served as a great keepsake for each of them but it saw my photography improve dramatically. The idea was to build up a portfolio so that when the youngest starts school I'd start marketing however word has spread and it looks like things are happening 12 months early which is very exciting. My photographic style is to get as natural shots as possible without the subject realising which I consider are the best ones. This is probably because I don't like having my own photo taken and know how awkward it can be. There are some occasions that require a more formal approach and in this instance I make things fun and different so as to get the natural feel once again. I like to think that my pricing is within budget for most people as I feel everybody should be able to consider a photographer for any occasion. We can all create beautiful memories and they deserve beautiful photographs....... a good photo stops a memory running away! I hope you enjoy my photos and if there is anything you need to know or want to ask then please don't hesitate to get in touch. Karen & the 5 Little Boys x

Because behind every picture-perfect wedding cake, every beautiful grazing table, and every hand-tied bouquet, thereโ€™s a story. The late nights baking. The early mornings setting up. The passion, the creativity, the care.

Thatโ€™s where I come in. ๐Ÿ“ธ
Whether itโ€™s a baker, caterer, florist, dressmaker, or venue, every supplier brings something special to a coupleโ€™s big day, and those stories deserve to be seen, not just told.

I photograph the people, the process, and the product, capturing the heart behind the brand and helping your audience fall in love with what you do.

Because all companies have stories...

๐Ÿ’ฌ Let me tell yours.

The first 20 minutes showed a few understandable nerves, but once we settled in, confidence started to flow and it couldโ€™ve easily been level at half-time. A couple of cracking goals from the opposition (and a monsoon-level downpour) made the second half tough, finishing 1โ€“5.

But what a moment... Stacey grabbing the first-ever goal in Ze-bras history! ๐ŸŽฏ๐Ÿ‘

And a massive shoutout to those who played their first-ever competitive game today! You absolute legends.

This is just the beginning, and what a foundation to build from.

The kids were brilliant! Full of energy and smiles and to top it off, we even had a visit from Rossendale and Darwen Andy MacNae MP, who was totally game and hopped on a bike to join in the fun. ๐Ÿ‘

One of the reasons I headed up to Kirkby Lonsdale last week (aside from a little countryside therapy ๐Ÿ˜…) was because I needed some fresh fruit and veg for my Milk & Honey Food Photography project.

DC Fruit & Veg kindly came to the rescue, and here are a few of the images I created ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ‹๐Ÿ…

Iโ€™m planning to sell these as prints, framed pieces, canvases or aluminium wall art which would be perfect for homes, cafรฉs, restaurants, pubs or anyone who loves a splash of colour and texture in their space.

Iโ€™m also offering bespoke commissions, so businesses can feature their own ingredients, products or brand in beautiful, eye-catching wall art.

Iโ€™d really love your thoughts. What do you think works best, and how would you market something like this (as that's not my forte ๐Ÿ™ˆ)?

All constructive ideas welcome.

Thanks in advance, my Facebook posse! ๐Ÿ’›

Today I had the absolute pleasure of photographing the Colne F.C. / Colne FC Ladies & Girls / Colne FC Juniors Round Robin Family Fun Day at the Haffners Eats Stadium and wow, what an atmosphere ๐Ÿ”ฅ
