Remember the maternity shoot I performed on 29th December, well here is baby!
Meet beautiful Carter, born on 26th January.
This is his first photo shoot, captured here at 1 week old, isn’t he adorable.
These images were taken at the clients home with my portable studio.
Here are just a few images from a recent session.
Pictured here is beautiful baby boy Matthew aged 4 weeks with his big brother Jack aged 3.
This session was performed in the clients home, using both backdrop & studio lighting.
Recently I got to spend the morning with this adorable little lady. Huni pictured here was just 6 days old, an absolute treasure.
This session was taken in the clients home with a studio backdrop and studio lighting.
On Monday I was lucky enough to meet these 2 lovely little ladies, Pippa is just 5 months old & her big sister Holly is 5 years old.
These were taken in the clients home, with a portable studio set up. It is my theory that visiting you helps to keep the children relaxed as they are familiar settings with minimal upheaval for all.
Over the Easter holidays I was lucky enough to fly over to Ireland and spend some time with my family. Upon my arrival I got to meet the newest addition to the family, Baby Scott, just 2 weeks old!
I knew from the second I booked our flights I wanted to capture beautiful Scott, unfortunately I couldn’t take my studio on the plane so these images were taken using natural light (always best) & for our backdrop Nanny held up a blanket. I can safely say I love the effect that has been created. A naturally lit perfect studio.
Ahhh I loved the birth of Freddie so much, Lena experienced what I could only have dreamt of with my births. I didn’t even know home birth was an option. She did so amazingly well, giving birth completely naturally. By choosing a birthing pool at home, beautiful Freddie was born into a world surrounded by familiarity and love.
Lena had the support of her partner Stuart & her son Tommy in the birthing pool. Also present were Lena’s mum & sister, a true family affair.
Her midwife was local independent midwife, Virginia Howes.
Lena, every time I look back at the story of Freddie’s birth I smile, you were so amazing and truly inspirational.
I find it so hard to believe a year has passed, what a gorgeous little baby Freddie is! Happy very 1st Birthday Freddie! Enjoy your extra special day!
On this day exactly one year ago I was on my own little journey of self discovery, I’ve loved documentary photography for as long as I can remember and anything relating to the family. Well on this day one year ago I found out where my heart lies…..
I was witnessing the incredible journey of Nic as she bought her first child into the world with the wonderful support of her partner Scott. Having 3 children of my own the magic of birth was not new to me but been able to be a bystander and capture the emotions that occur between 2 people whom love each dearly as they together bring their baby into the world was something entirely magical. I don’t think I personally realised how much the birthing partner goes through until this day, it’s intense, even more so if there are dramas, these two were utterly amazing!!
Capturing this magical night of firsts for Nic & Scott showed me my heart belongs in birth photography, and all that comes with it, combining my love of the family and documentary to tell the magical story of a baby’s birth day. Every baby born is an individual magical journey and I am privileged to be able to capture those. Times passes so quickly it’s easy to forget, these images help you to never forget the magical if slightly scary journey of your babies arrival and their amazing first moments.
Happy 1st Birthday Oscar, your special day will be special to me forever.
