Oliver the Babe | Baby photographer Melbourne

I have had so many gorgeous babies in my studio of late… and this little man was no exception.

The first thing I wanted to do when I met him was ruffle that gorgeous mop of hair on his head. Don’t you just love it?! He had such a gorgeous little personality. He’s not on the move yet, but boy it won’t be long. Those legs were getting a major workout. Just love, love, love this age!

{So glad we got to capture him when we did Lisa! Such a fun morning with you!}

Baby Alannah | Baby photographer, Melbourne

Do they get any more precious than this?! At one of my absolute favourite ages, 8 month old Alannah was an absolute superstar and a half for me at her session. We had some good bonding time to warm up to begin with (aka lots of play and tickles) and as soon as we found her button to get her going, there was no stopping her!

I love it when clients allow me to take the lead with clothing choices and positioning – my motto is always, SIMPLE IS BEST! You can never go wrong with simple, and this gorgeous thing stole the show anyway so it wouldn’t have mattered in the slightest what we had her dressed in.

Adored every single connecting moment with her – her smile gives me warm hugs from the inside out!

{Give Alannah a big smooshy cuddle from me guys! I will be in touch!}

One cheeky monkey | Children’s photographer in Melbourne

They say toddlers are inquisitive, cheeky and full of beans – ‘they’ aren’t wrong. This is the definition of Alexander, and kept me on my toes all morning! Finding out what made him tick was great fun – and tell me that gorgeous mop of hair on his head doesn’t make you want to reach out and ruffle it (I know I did a few times… can’t help it, it’s too adorable!)

And the best part about him? He loves dancing to Jack Johnson – what a champion!

{Mac, it was a pleasure for me to spend the morning in your gorgeous abode photographing your little man! I will be in touch as soon as your proofs are ready}

Happy Easter! | Melbourne Childrens Photographer

Our little holiday | Childrens photographer, Melbourne

Kristen — Sat, 11 Apr 2009 03:19:53 +0000

You may recall that we took a short family holiday to the Sunshine Coast. It was so lovely to get away and take a break, and it’s hard to believe that we’ve been back now for almost three weeks.

While we were up there, I also had a chance to meet up with my gorgeous friend Lana (one of Brisbane’s best baby photographers!) who managed to capture some gorgeous shots of my little Miss Mia and I. Being the one always behind the camera, these are very precious to me!!

Some other happy snaps from our trip:

Unfortunately, my little Miss Mia is not a water baby. In fact, put her near sand or water and she will throw a major tantrum.

Ah well, we tried….! Thankfully there was lots to do also away from the water, so we did manage to keep her (and us!) entertained.

Now, when’s my next holiday?!

Baby Hailey | Melbourne Child Photography

This girl was such a cutie. Gorgeously cheeky and loved the camera (literally… we would pop her down and within a second she’d be coming towards me at full speed just so that she could touch it!). Her session was a lot of fun!

Hailey also has this gorgeous vintage highchair which I fell in love with the instant I saw it -but the best bit about her? Those two gorgeous teeth down the bottom that seem to show up every time she smiles!!

{Dean & Monique – loved her cheeky side. She was a gorgeous angel to photograph and made me smile all afternoon. What fun!!}
