In time for the start of the summer holidays, I am pleased to announce the start of my Portfolio Programme.

The Programme is aimed at producing a range of unique family photographs based around a theme which is special to each family.

I want to talk to families with a shared passion for something - something which is personal to them and is a major feature in their lives on a regular basis.

Together we’ll use that as a theme for a family photo session featuring all the family and elements of whatever it is they do.  We’ll choose the location and the timing of the session to suit the theme.

Whether you’re mad into surfing, GAA, music or whatever, I want to hear your ideas for a family photograph with a difference.

As with previous promotions, I want to use these images for my own publicity on the web and in print. In return for your time, the session is free and you’ll get a framed print as well.

So before you head off to do whatever you do best this summer, think about whether you’d like some great pictures to remember it by.

Give me a call at 087 683 8511 or email me your ideas and we can come up with some great new family photographs.

More information, details and some more ideas are posted at http://blog.roblambphoto.com/?page_id=488

Now this guy may be a little young for this programme - but you never know, he might make it one day…

Get a Free Session and Framed 8″x12″ Photograph

I am looking to get new, fresh images of kids having fun outdoors this Spring.  I’m thinking kids playing in bluebell woods, kids with daffodils, cherry blossom – all that kind of thing.  I want to use these pictures on the web site and in promotional literature to publicise the outdoor sessions going forward.

So I’m looking for a number of families in the Cork area who are interested in getting involved in an outdoor photo session this Spring.  In return for your involvement, you get a framed 8”x12” picture the shoot.

We’ll have some fun outdoors with the kids, I get some great photos to use for my own publicity and you get the artwork as a thank you.

Families of any size with kids of toddler age upwards can apply – just as long as you’re up for it rain or shine!

Just e-mail me your contact details, number and ages of children and rough geographical area.  If you have a favourite park or forest (or a big garden) that would suit the session then I’m happy to take suggestions for locations as well.

Sessions will take place from mid March to the end of April, depending on the weather and when exactly spring actually ‘springs’.  Weekends are fine if that’s the only time that suits your family.

I want to do as many of these sessions as I can before First Communions start in May so you only have a short time to book your session.  Contact me now to set a date:

I was sent this photo by a client who ordered Birth Announcement Cards as part of a baby session:

The Many Faces of Rosie M

Poor Rosie doesn’t look a bit impressed by being out numbered by her own image.  Thanks to Dad for sending me this picture.

At home, we’ve been sending personal cards with photos of the family on for years - especially at Christmas.  It has been a delight to call to people in distant lands and find one of our cards still on the fridge, the mantle or even framed on the wall.

I know my wife will soon be telling me straight that I’d better get on with this year’s Christmas Card.

Premium Greetings Cards with an image from your session can be ordered in batches of 20 for €50

However I also offer a deal which includes a short photo session at a location of your choice (in Cork) plus 20 cards for €80.

Discounts apply for larger batches of cards.

I’d better get my own cards done. Now, where are those Santa Hats!
