Welcome Kaitlyn Rose | newborn baby photography session



Kaitlyn Rose is absolutely beautiful. She is one of those babies you can gaze at because she is just so lovely.

The little poppet's feet are so tiny and Daddy's hands so big and strong that his wedding ring easily fit over three of her toes!
My all time favourite photograph of Daddy's holding their little ones. It think it makes every woman's heart burst with love and pride when she sees her husband being a real man.
 

Thank you for the honour of photographing your precious family. I'm looking forward to seeing her on her first birthday!

I hope you have a great week!

Welcome Nonu Miguel | Newborn Photography Session

Now this little man made me work very hard for the photographs. He was quite happy to sleep once he got comfy but I was not allowed to touch him thereafter. He cried like I was inflicting severe injury to him but all I would do was move his little hand or reposition his foot. or put a little hat on. Lots of patience, tenderness and care went into this session. 

I think the thing that really touched me was when I handed the package of photographs to his mom and she looked at me and said, "Is this my baby?" She had tears in her eyes and was overjoyed.
I love this photograph. He just looks so little and cuddly and beautiful.

Thank you so much for trusting me with your baby even when he was crying so badly. I am touched.

I wish you a great week!

Husselmann Family Outdoor Photo Session

This lovely family chose Avis Dam for their family photography session. I'm enjoying Avis at the moment. The grass is so long and dry with flashes of green from the rain last month. Late in the afternoons the sun shines low through the trees and bathes everything in warm light.

It was really a lovely session where I got to work with a beautiful teenager, a sincere primary school boy and a bubbly little pre-schooler. It was fun coming up with poses that would keep all three of them entertained. This one is my favourite.

I just love it when I capture a moment of pure happiness. It may not be the post beautifully posed or artistic photograph but it is the one that always gets a reaction because it speaks to us emotionally. It makes me love my job even more.
I never thought when I bought this trunk 15 years ago for R20 that I would become a photographer and get to use it to take such cute photographs.
Serene beauty...
After a little while the little one was getting a bit bored with this whole photo story so I got her to do some running for me. And then Mr Sincere asked to run too and he really came alive. He is not into posing so much so I'm really glad I got this natural, fun photograph of him.
 I get such fun reactions when I ask for this pose. The littlies normally think it is yuk, gross, no mom. The teenagers always smile and the parents often get shy!
 Mom and her little girl.
 And with her big guy.
Chantell I think you are really beautiful and I hope that photograph makes you feel special.
It is really special for me to see parents so openly show their love and adoration for each other. It is such a great example for their children.
Thank you Chantell and Nolan for choosing me to be your photographer. It is a pleasure and an honour.

I hope you all have a great week!

Laura Emily | Newborn Photo Session

I just loved this session. This beautiful little girl slept so well for us. Her parents are wonderful, calm parents. I so enjoy it when clients have thought about their session and come with ideas and things that are special to them.
  Her mum is creative and really wonderful to work with. She brought along two beautiful flowers to use. I love how the photographs turned out.

The series of photographs I took with little Laura Emaily on her mum's absolutely stunning wedding dress are some of my favourite photographs to date. I think every little girl should have a photograph with her mum's wedding dress.
This photograph is not as easy as it looks. As soon as you touch a baby's feet even while they are sleeping, they move them and pretty wildly sometimes. 
Thank you so much for choosing me to be your photographer. I am looking forward to seeing little Laura Emily for her first birthday.

I hope you have a great week!

Three Generations Outdoor Family Photo Session

I love it when clients return for another photo session. It is so good to know that they enjoyed their experience and where happy with the service and of course the final photographs.

I had little Zuné in my studio quite some time ago for a really cute baby photography session. This time her mum wanted an outdoor session as a birthday present for her mum. So we had Ouma, Ma and daughter all together along with Uncle and Hubby in a lovely garden setting.

I love photographing children. I am never quite sure what I am going to get. Here we were trying very hard to get Zuné to pose nicely in the chair with her Ouma. She had totally different ideas. I still really like the resultant photograph. It makes me smile because it reminds me of the story behind it.

I think as a photographer I have done a good job if I can evoke an emotion whenever a mom looks at the photographs of her family, whether it be a smile, a laugh or even tears of love and joy.

Thank you for choosing me to be your photographer. I feel honoured to photograph your family.

I hope you have a great week!
