We were lucky enough to have photographed this little cherubs parents wedding earlier this year, we just love staying involved with the couples and continuing the capture their precious moments as their families grow.

One of their close friends who we met at their wedding contacted us just before she was born to arrange a Newborn Baby Portrait Photography Gift Voucher for them. So I was very excited when her Daddy called to let me know she had arrived and to arrange the baby portrait session. 

At 2 weeks old little Matilda is a little older than we usually like to work with for newborn shoots as they generally won't sleep, and when they are awake they don't focus on anything specific.... but not this little angel she was a super star! She was a delight awake, and fell asleep soundly on queue, the only time she got upset for a few minutes it was quickly stopped by my camera.... she loved it! And what a pretty little bubba she is too, just perfect for baby portrait photography....

What a treat! One of my closest friends had her second little angel last week and I was on their door step almost as soon as they got home to take some newborn baby photos. And isn't he adorable.... It is so lovely to be able to capture these precious memories for my clients, but even more so when it's a close friend. Plus I got lots more cuddles too!

His professional photography range includes wedding photography, party photography, family portrait photography, newborn portrait photography and pregnancy portrait photography. 

This family have been blessed with newborn baby twin boys, and they have a gorgeous older sister. They also have some lovely friends who purchased a newborn portrait photography gift voucher from us and gave it to them as a gift after the birth. It's such a precious gift to give a family, captured memories to treasure.

The boys are 10 days old, however Tate the larger of the two boys was very alert and just did not want to relax and let me take photos he had to keep an eye on everything! He finally crashed with exhaustion and snuggled down with his little brother Levi for some beautiful photographs. As you can see they have an amazing Mum who gave birth naturally and looks fantastic, plus very adoring and beautiful older sister Masey and very proud Dad. I really enjoyed working with this beautiful family and felt like I'd know Sarai the gorgeous Mum for years....

As you know I just love taking newborn baby portraits, the floppy, softness of the little babies in their first week is so precious to capture in photographs. But last week I was in for a real treat with these gorgeous little twins. The girls were 2 weeks old which is usually outside my newborn window for portraits however as they were slightly premature they were still a little sleepy. As you can see one is slightly larger than the other and was more alert, but when snuggled up together they were very happy to settle and sleep.

Their older sister was also very excited about her two little sisters, and protective as all sibling are, the most amazing time for any family..... This family now has these beautiful memories captured to treasure for a lifetime.

We love these precious relationships, little man Max here was well known to us even before he was born, 18 months ago we photographed his parents wedding! So we were delighted when his Mum & Dad asked us to come and capture their memories of this precious time. Max is now 10 weeks old and a very cute baby, he wasn't really in the mood to smile but that just made for some fun shots of his Dad particularly trying to make him laugh..... I especially enjoyed working with the beautiful outdoor light, and the garden setting they had. Max's Dad won this little baby couch in a raffle just days before he was born and I couldn't resist using it as a prop.

This little man is just adorable, his smile is "as wide as an elephants eye". His mothers colleagues grouped together to purchase her a "Newborn Portrait Photography Gift Voucher" when she went on maternity leave. The family then elected to not take the photos straight away in the first 10 days for the classic newborn portraits, instead waited until he was 12 weeks old to capture this beautiful baby age. We enjoying photographing any baby stage!

Little baby Max also has an older sister who is just as gorgeous and worked hard to steal the show.... It was a hot day so we photographed both inside the family home and out in the park. Here are just some of the highlights....
