Kids Portraits, Greg Dries, Moods Photography

An afternoon With Charli & Xavier


Melissa, the girls Mum, apologised before we started this shoot for what she thought we were about to endure with Xavier, as often happens in these situations, Xavier proved Melissa wrong & loved the whole deal.... hopefully this shows in the images, BTW: Xavier is the younger of the two girls.... absolutely stunning shots....

We absolutely treasure the relationship we share with our clients, & we are so appreciative of the feedback we receive... our sincere thanks to Simon, Jacqui, & their beautiful girls...

ps: and awesome pets

(this was the first email we received from Simon & Jacqui)

Good morning Greg,

I wanted to thank you for the priceless moments you have captured for our family in such an incredibly beautiful way.

Your unique photos display a character and soul of the subject that none of our other photos (personal and professional) possess.

Your previous photos from 5 years ago still remain among my most prized possessions and these photos add immeasureably to the collective value since they include our entire family (horses and dogs aswell!).

These gifts of moments that you have given us are treasured every day.

Thank you

Simon


(this email was in response to Karas request to share Simons comments)


Morning Kara,



Of course I would be honoured to be included as a testimonial and I could not imagine any of Greg's clients not treasuring any of his photos.


People are always very quick to write with complaints but seldom do they compliment with praise. Greg's amazing talent has a solid, measurable impact on our family and it was important to me that he recognises the joy his work produces.



Have a great day, Kara.

Family moments together are so precious, & for us it is always very special to be asked to share a little of this time to create images that reflect relationships ...

At this shoot it was extra special, we have had the pleasure of photographing Vicki, Dick & their daughters, Cassidy & Brooke since the girls were young, so it was lovely to catch up & meet Vicki's family & capture some precious moments...

We had the pleasure of photographing this family two years ago, at the time we did beautiful beach shots, this time Helen the Mum wanted shots taken at home, we had boxing bags, drum kits & access to all the kids fantastic cloths...

Alanna is so gorgeous to photograph, it was difficult to finish this shoot, Alanna didn't want us to stop, she kept suggesting other locations then darting off & posing...

To celebrate their 3rd anniversary of being together Mandiey arranged for us to send Kyle an invitation for a photographic shoot, he loved the images we had taken of Mandiey last year & was keen to have some taken together...

These guys bought with them the most amazing array of clothes, they certainly turned heads as we wandered the streets photographing

We had such a great time, the images we created really express who these guys are...

As families grow & scatter moments together become rare & so very precious.

Reunited from Interstate & Overseas, this rare moment together was to share an afternoon celebrating Peters Birthday (Dad & Granddad), the 20 minute window we had was all we needed to get all the shots required.

What we love about this image is that within the group shot we were able to compose & identify the individual family groups...

NB: When Greg walked into Peters home, he mistook two beautiful large framed photographs as being Peter Liks, they were actually Peters images, he is an excellent landscape photographer, & author of several photography books...
