Little Dude

I had fun with a bit of colour in this session! I tend to stay with soft natural colours but I did really love using the bright sea green with this little man. 

When photographing babies it is so amazing to see their personalities already coming through! This little guys was such a dude at just over a week old, happy and confident and a little bit of attitude - in a good way! 

Its certainly something that comes through in every session and it reminds us that our babies really are just tiny people, with emotions and opinions already growing inside their tiny bodies.

Brotherly Love

You can just imagine how excited these two big brothers were to welcome their new baby sister! I particularly love the photo of them holding her, the love and protection in both of their faces is just divine. 

And you can see why! She's the most perfect little sweetheart, even sneaking in a smile or two for the camera.

Cosy Little Man

Sometimes when a family walks in the door, you just know things are going to go well. With you have a big sister and a new little brother as adorable as these two are - I had a feeling it was going to be a special session. 

I always include family and sibling photos in all of my newborn sessions. To me, family photography is about capturing all the bonds in the family as well as the gorgeous new addition.

This session was the first chance I had to photograph my new bed prop from Island Vine Designs and I couldn't be happier with the outcome.  

I always keep my setups very simple so that your beautiful baby is the main focus in your photos, and this session is a perfect example of that. Little man was so cosy snuggled in the gorgeous bed, it makes me wish they came in larger sizes!

Hearts are Fuller

I adore meeting new parents! They are so in love and in awe with meeting their new baby and adapting to the new routines. Theres no way to ever prepare for how your life will change but you soon know that babies make nights longer, days shorter and hearts fuller.

Behind the Scenes Halloween Edit

Every so often I like to stretch my creative legs and do "Fantasy Edits" like this Halloween one. 

Portrait photography uses photoshop in a very restrained way. It is about retouching things to look like you never did. To fly under the radar with Photoshop so that it is the beautiful people you see in the photo and not the editing. 

Fantasy Edits are a bit different. This type of editing is to merge elements together to create a photo that you know is not real but that blends so well you accept is as an artwork. Here are the elements I used to create my Halloween photo: 

Wooden stool from Island Vine Designs

The background is from www.deviantart.com 

The cauldron is from www.vectorhq.com

I used techniques from this tutorial:

This style of edit is something new to me and certainly just for fun, but if you like this sort of photography artwork, check out these amazing pages:
