Portrait photography
Your Family portrait studio in Edinburgh
Portrait photography in Edinburgh by Blue Sky Photography
Some moments deserve to last. Not always the big and dramatic moments; more often the in-between-how-you-are-right-now moments. And we believe photographs are the best way of telling those stories. Photographs printed and cherished in your home for years to come. So that you always remember.
Perhaps it’s your baby’s tiny toes, or your little one’s incredible curls. Maybe the way the kids hold hands, or giggle uncontrollably when Daddy chases them. It might be the re-assuring glances you give each other when no one else is looking, or the in-jokes you have as a family. It could be how radiant Mum looks with her grandchildren, or how your dog gazes at you, hanging on your every word.
If you’re looking a way to slow down time and be in the moment (away from the distractions of everyday life) then a photography experience could be exactly what you need. And as with all good things, the only thing you’ll wonder is why you didn’t do it sooner.
Newborn photography
Everyone tells you they won’t always be this small so you should take all the photographs. And you know that, but also, you’re existing in a milk-induced sleep haze so it’s not always easy. That’s where we can help. Book yourself and your new family into the Blue Sky Photography studio and we’ll look after you. From hot cups of tea, to a comfy space to feed in private, we’ve got you covered. And photographs of your perfect new little human? We can nail that and help you create the wall art or the album you’d love to have for your home. First family photography experience done. Tick.
Baby photography
They change so fast it’s almost unfair. The curled up newborn stage gives way to the squishy, rolly, sitting-up stage, which gives way to the on-the-move-and-into-everything stage before you’ve even had a chance to catch your breath. Each one is worth capturing. Every single one. Book your baby into the Blue Sky Photography studio and we’ll create beautiful images that show exactly who they are right now, at this age, in this moment. Relaxed, unhurried, and with plenty of time built in for feeds and cuddles and all the bits that come with bringing a small baby out of the house. Because this stage won’t wait. Baby Photography as art work for your home and legacy for your family is something you deserve.
Family photography
Everyone said the baby stage goes fast. Spoiler: all of it does. The chaotic toddler years, the gap-toothed smiles, the age where they’ll still actually hold your hand in public. Blink and you’ll be watching it in a slideshow at their 18th wondering where it all went. That’s where we come in. Book your family into the Blue Sky Photography studio and let us do the hard work. We’ll herd the kids, coax out the real smiles (not the forced cheesy ones), and create images that actually look like your family: messy, loud, lovely – all if it.
And if you’ve been meaning to get three generations together in one place? Do it now. You’ll be so glad you did. Wall art you’ll stop and look at every single day? An album the kids will fight over when they’re grown? We can make that happen. You just need to book the family photography experience. Tick.
Kids photography
Somewhere between the baby who needed you for everything and the teenager who definitely doesn’t, there’s this brilliant (at times slightly manic) stretch of childhood that deserves to be documented properly. We’re talking the missing teeth, the favourite teddy that goes everywhere, the obsession with dinosaurs or unicorns or Eddie Stobbart lorries (just ask me I can still tell you the names of many!) whatever this week’s thing is. The personality that’s already so entirely them. At Blue Sky Photography we know that getting kids to “perform” for a camera is never a good idea. So we don’t. We just let them be themselves and we work around that — and honestly? That’s where the magic happens. Real kids. Real smiles. Real memories. Tick.
Dog photography
Because they’re not just a dog, are they? They’re the one who’s always pleased to see you, who takes up three quarters of the sofa (despite your original ‘no dogs on the sofa’ rule) who somehow ends up in every family memory anyway. They deserve their own photography experience just as much as anyone else. At Blue Sky Photography studio we love dogs. Full stop. We know how to work with them: whether yours is a total poser who performs on command, or a chaotic force of nature who won’t sit still for two seconds. We’ve got treats, patience, and a knack for capturing that look. You know the one.
The velvet ears. The ridiculous expression. The eyes that absolutely know exactly what they’re doing to you. Wall art of your best friend on your wall forever? Honestly, no brainer.
