Feeling active? Nothing better than a countryside walk and there’s a lovely ‘Zig-Zag’ 3.5m circular walk around Selbourne with some stunning views incorporating the magnificent beech woods and flower meadows .  Maybe walk off that pub lunch or take a picnic and enjoy the views from the ancient Selbourne common. Find time for the simple things, a paddle in the river, collect some stones and maybe find a broken bird egg or fossil.
Details can be found here

Feeling nostalgic? Wear the kids out with an afternoon at Hollycombe and soak up the atmosphere of the traditional fairground, take a ride on the steam railway, or wandering through the woodland gardens, there’s something for all ages and it’s just 11 miles from the orchard. (Closed until Easter).

• Please note that sessions cancelled less than 72 hours in advance are non-refundable as it is unlikely your slot will be filled at short notice.
• In the event of bad weather an alternative session will be offered, if you are unable to attend a full refund will be provided.
• In the event of the photographer having to cancel an alternative session will be offered, if possible in the orchard or another Autumn location. A full refund will be offered if this is not suitable for you.

• The orchard has put guidelines in place to keep everyone safe whilst on site:
  Please read all the signs on arrival and follow them.
  Do not attend if you or your household has symptoms.
  Follow all government guidelines with social distancing.

  At present I am closely monitoring the daily changing Government guidelines and following their instructions accordingly.

  I’m also doing as much as possible to prevent the spread of this virus with some sensible initiatives. I’m asking all my clients to:

  • Wash/sanitise your hands prior to your session.
  • Please contact me to reschedule your session if you have any symptoms (cough, high temperature and feel unwell) or have been in contact with someone with the virus.If you are not feeling great please contact me as soon as possible. I know it’s disappointing but our health is what is most important.

  I am also taking the following precautions:

  • Prior to each session I will clean and sanitise my photography equipment and props.
  • I always extend a warm welcome on meeting my clients, but for the time being this welcome won’t be accompanied by a handshake or any other physical contact. It doesn’t mean I like you any less!!!
  • Posing for photographs may take a little longer as wherever possible I’ll use verbal cues and demonstrate rather than physically move you. I may also need to direct parents to help position their children to avoid touching where possible.
  • I will maintain my distance but will not be wearing a mask. We are outdoors with plenty of fresh air and wearing a mask tends to inhibit my ability to communicate effectively with you to direct you with posting etc. It’s not ideal but if you’d prefer me to wear one then please ask.

  On the morning of your session you’ll receive an ‘Acceptance of Risk and Waiver of Liability Relating to COVID-19’ link, please complete and return this prior to arriving at your session.

For girls:  If you like tutu’s I can obtain these, just let know sizing and I’ll bring them along.  These look great teamed with wellies or cowboy boots and denim jackets.  Dresses and layers work beautifully too, as do dungarees and jeans.
For Boys: Denim, a simple shirt with the addition of braces and a cool trilby or cap is a classic and timeless look, or if you’re opting for something more hip I recommend checking out the latest Zara and Boden catalogues.
