A Christmas baby | Newborn Photographer Melbourne

Little Matthew was born on Christmas day – what a wonderful and beautiful present to his parents!  Although I do feel a little sorry for him as he will always have a combined birthday/christmas including presents!  I photographed Matthew when he was around  6 weeks old which is alot older than my usual newborns which are normally captured under 2 weeks of age.  He was such a good boy throughout his session and although it isn’t really  possible to obtain those gorgeous curly newborn shots the ones we did capture are just as beautiful.  His older sister Maisie was a complete little character chatting away and being a princess – like all little girls love to do.  {Thank-you Judith & Neil for having me capture your gorgeous kids -will be in touch soon once your gallery is completed}

Baby Oscar | Newborn Photographer Melbourne

Gorgeous baby Oscar came to my home studio for a session this morning. He was such a good boy at 12 days old - probably my best yet – didn’t make a peep and at the end of the session absolutely no washing – now that has to be some kind of record!  Every time a client brings their little bub in I am always amazed how tiny they are  - how quickly I forget that my own babies were just as small.  Love little Oscar – to his tiny little toes to his gorgeous mop of hair – miss him already xx

{Liz – thank-you so much for bringing Oscar in today and I am still amazed how well you are doing – you truly are born to be a mum. Enjoy the photos of your adorable baby boy and will be in touch once your gallery is ready}

The Devine Miss Mia | Children’s Photography Melbourne

The gorgeous curls, the clothes, the location, the absolutely gorgeous light – I was seriously in my element.  A few months back I held a model call for some models who were willing to have a portfolio building session with me as I had some great ideas for a session that I always wanted to do.  Jo who owns the online store www.babyjo.com.au contacted me and organised a session with her beautiful, cheeky and very smart (those super hard words she can say puts my little Jack to shame!) Miss Mia. These photos were taken at one of my favourite local locations – the light is just so beautiful during the summer months around dusk.  We had lots of fun using different areas, props and outfit changes – Mia was such a star throughout it all.  I wanted to do this session to show other potential clients that with a little thought in regards to choosing a location, scheduling the session at the right time clothing choices and use of props you can obtain absolutely gorgeous images of your children. I have so many gorgeous photos from this session but here are just a few of my favourites.

{Jo and Mia – thank-you so much for coming along – hope you had fun and Mia enjoyed her well deserved ice cream on the way home x}

Just Me…. Part One | Melbourne baby photographer

Last night one of my girlfriends Cazz who is also a photographer www.cazzphotography.com.au went to one of our favourite local locations and took some portraits of each other for our websites.  We had heaps of fun while our six boys ran around like crazy and the light at this time of night was just devine as the sun started setting behind the trees – just gorgeous! Very strange being in front of the camera for once (and scary too!LOL) but it was kind of liberating to have someone capture an image of myself for a change. I seriously only have a couple of photos with me in them as I am always the one behind the camera – I feel it is so important for my boys to look back and know that their mummy did exist and was here in this world. I have just started editing a few photos so here is just a couple from last night.  If your a mummy like me that never has a nice photo  I urge you to organise a session with a photographer – it can be so much fun getting dressed up, having a laugh and for once doing something just for you. This location is just beautiful so if you would like to make a booking for either a children’s or family session please contact me soon take advantage of this gorgeous summer light.

January Photo a Day Project – Day 6 | children’s photography Melbourne

OK – I admit it – I may have the most un co-operative children in the world to photograph – every time I get my camera out I am either met with fruit loop antics or little ’sad don’t want to do this’ faces!LOL   Trying to get a 8 and 5 year old to look natural instead of cheesey smiles is SO HARD!!  I think for my own sanity this project may just be every now and then and may attempt this again next year!  I think the best option for my boys is a photo a month – that would suit them perfectly! This photo below cost me lollies today – and  lots of them!
