During the course of a family lifestyle portrait shoot in Lancashire last week it became apparent that the little boy, Charles, has a very special relationship with his grandad. Charles lives in Canada with his mum and dad and baby brother Jack, so he doesn't get to see his grandad too often. So, when Charles comes over to visit, he just loves to copy everything that his grandad does...tidying the garden, setting up the barbecue....and, especially, fixing things in grandad's shed. Lump hammers and spanners are not the first props that may spring to mind for a portrait, but lifestyle photography is all about capturing relationships by telling a story. These photographs will mean the world to Charles when he's grown up and has a shed (and maybe even grandchildren) of his own. 
Always looking up to his Grandad...
