Glamorous assignment!

Urban Portraits

You don't have to take portrait photography in a studio with a backdrop and full lighting. Some of our favourite portraits are taken outside using the landscape as the backdrop. This is our very favourite example of an urban portrait taken in Manchester City Centre.

Our children are already giving us a run for their money with the quality of their photography. This picture was taken by our 7 year old at half term in Venice.

Photographing families
Having 2 small children ourselves, we have visited our fair share of photographers for family pictures. You've probably been there yourself-stand in a line, move that arm a bit to the left-no the other left! Then they make it really exciting by pulling down a backdrop with a library on it! Why? We believe family photography should be fun and then we can get the best out of our clients-whatever their age!

About us

We are husband and wife photography team Keith and Jenny McAvoy.
We are based in Manchester but love to travel further afield both for pleasure and for work-to us that is one and the same thing in any event! We love our work-photography is a happy job!
Keith is our main photographer with a passion for people, lighting and composition! He also carries out some of the post production and retouching.
Jenny is our supporting photographer and carries out the majority of the retouching and post production. She also designs all album and photographic layouts and is the first point of contact for all enquiries.
On a personal level we have 2 cheeky, beautiful girls-Olivia and Eliza who have acted as our muses since they were babies, and they are already taking a big interest in the family business. If you ever see us at wedding fairs they will be there handing out leaflets or on the front row of the fashion shows. Olivia will maintain a permanent position near the chocolate fountain!
Jenny loves cooking and Keith likes eating it! Keith’s other loves are football and playing the guitar. Jenny loves singing (usually with Olivia and Eliza on Singstar) and chocolate.
We also love talking and socialising and meeting new people. If we can combine talking, eating, singing and playing guitar that would pretty much be a perfect night!
