Hi all I’m Lisa and I am the lady behind the camera here at Isla Grace Photography. Your Whitchurch, Hampshire based Studio Photographer.

A bit about me, your Whitchurch, Hampshire Studio Photographer

I love rock music; I feel I secretly should have been a goth, but I was to self-conscious to fully commit.  I’ve had the red hair, piercings, and tattoos over the years, but I blend in more these days.

Im 40 this year, I’m not at all anxious about it.  I have never had a fear of growing old and since my dad passed at age 63 2 years ago, I believe aging is a gift we aren’t all given. 

I have decided that this year is my year to conquer my fear of travelling abroad so to celebrate the big 4 0! we are going on a cruise, our first family holiday abroad combining my fear of flying with my inability to swim and therefore fear of water ha ha but I’ve heard I will love cruising.  So, if I survive, I’ll write a blog about it! LOL.

I am a Mum to Isla age 7 and Grace who is 11 in a few short weeks. Hence my business name.  They are my everything.  Isla has me hiding in a corner multiple times a week and Grace is getting hormonal and just wants me to be quiet and leave her alone.  But they complete me, being a Mum was always my biggest want in life. I’m lucky to have them.

Grace is the reason I started my photography business; I was that mum that always had a camera in her face and then when she was 2 she started saying No more cheese mummy and that’s when I realised I needed to find other children to photograph and what started out as a hobby is now my profession.

Qualifications

You do not need any training or qualifications to start a photography business!

If you have time to read my testimonials over on my Facebook page your will see a lot of them say sessions are relaxed, baby lead and calm. I do not clock watch; I do not pressure you into buying top package or large pieces of wall art. I want you to enjoy your time with me as well as love your images.
