It has been four years since I last saw Rhiannon and Martin, when I photographed their wedding at De Courcey’s. This day in the late summer of 2021, we had arranged to meet up at Newton Beach in Porthcawl, South Wales to produce some family portrait photography. They wished to document their growing family, with their cute little daughter in tow, albeit leading the way in which toddlers do and Rhiannon pregnant with their second child. This beach is popular with dog walkers and barbecuers and with the weather so pleasant it was a busy day, though with a little patience we managed to get some lovely family portraits both posed and my forté, of naturally captured playful family antics
