This gorgeous little guy ‘s blog post is long overdue, I apologise for my lack of blogging, Im well into the thick of wedding season, as well as lots of shoots for family photos before Chrismtas and so it is BUSY!!!

Little Sonny is the gorgeous baby boy welcomed by this beautiful couple Heather and Anthony.

He looked like a gorgeous old soul with his creased forehead and chilled alertness.

Heather and Anthony I have no doubt he will bring you such joy over the coming years:)

Ah, new life, I love love love meeting couples that are about to welcome their first child into this world.

There is something so magical about it, a vulnerability, unaware of how much their lives are about to change – for the better of course:)

I met Heather and Anthony on a beautiful spring afternoon, and had a wonderful time photographing Heathers beautiful belly.

I cant wait to meet your new addition in the coming weeks:)

Im back!

The past 4 months have flown by. Its bittersweet as my maternity leave has come to an end, and my baby is getting so much bigger, but I cannot wait to get back into shooting the incredible weddings I have booked this coming wedding season.

I had every intention while on maternity leave that I was going to take a photo a day of Indiana (did not remotely happen seeing as the little treasure did not like the camera!) and that I would be posting lots still over the 4 months. Instead I relished in taking a step back from the Internet, and photo taking, and quite honestly, there was no time for photos or the Internet between all of the adjusting going on here!

Since adding to our family though, I have realised my limitations with how many weddings I can commit myself to per season. Its been hard to realise that I may have to take a slight step back, but I would only ever want to be able to give 100% to each client and there wedding, and I can only continue to do that if I limit the number of weddings I take on. I am currently 3 bookings off my limit for this season (Now – May 2012) so if you were thinking about making a booking, now is the time to do it!

Ill be back to blog a beautiful wedding, and gorgeous Mama to be from last weekend:) Makes me want to be pregnant again…. almost, if It wasn’t for the sleep deprivation I’m currently still experiencing!

And I cant have a post without a photo, here is our dear little Indiana, only not so little, she is turning into a Michelin baby as well!

I have been meaning to post these gorgeous images of my beautiful friend Amber who I used to work with a decade ago (makes me feel old when I say decade!!) we got in contact again when she found out she was expecting her gorgeous little one and I was so pleased and excited when she asked me to photograph this beautiful moment in time for her and her husband Daniel.

Amber you truly glowed in these last few weeks of pregnancy, I have absolutely no doubt you will be an incredible Mama, and I look forward to sharing many more times together soon while our little ones play.

When I fell pregnant with this baby, I remember being so excited at all of the newborn photos I could take. I dreamt up poses and ideas, spent hours trailing etsy and wool stores loading up on hats and blankets that I would use in all of these beautiful photos I would take.

I was prepared this time, the ideal time to photograph a newborn is between day 4 and up to day 14, as they are usually nice and sleepy in this time, and they change so much in those first few weeks.
On day 2 I got the beautiful photos in the post below of my husband Gareth and Indi. On day 4 I tried to do her photos on her own. I had the room prepared to a toasty temp of 35 and eased her into some poses.

No chance. The minute she was undressed she cried. The only time she ever cries is still when shes undressed. (Daddy’s rather pleased about this!) I tried wrapping her, but to no avail. I did this every day for the following 9 days till I decided its just not going to happen. On day 7 I tried to take the perfect shot of my 3 gorgeous children. I have about 30 hilarious photos of many face pulls and outtakes. I managed to photo merge one to something I like and the rest I will forever laugh at, and remember that day – the pleading, distracting and bribery, none of which worked!

And a few of the fantastic outtakes!

This beautiful little girl was such a gorgeous spirited little baby, she loved being close to her brother and sister who doted and adore her.

It was a crisp morning but this beautiful family had such a wonderful backyard that I couldnt help but use it for her first photos. One of the many reasons I love being able to travel to you for your newborn sessions, its so personal incorporting your home surroundings.

Sam, Darcy, Jewel and Willow it was such a pleasure to meet you all and photograph your beautiful new addition.

These gorgeous belly castings are by artist Sally Newman from Estomac Art. It was the most beautiful belly casting I have ever seen, so much so that Sally is coming to do my belly on Monday! I cant wait to curl baby girl in it for some photos.
