I was soooo excited to do this photo shoot. Not only was I going to get to capture 2 adorable little people, I was going to be able to spend the morning with their wonderful mummy. I have known mum for quite a few years now, she was a teacher at my children’s school and whilst she never taught either of my kids, she always took such loving interest in them that I felt like she did. When your children are at school and you aren’t there to take care of them, it’s teacher’s like this who make you feel like your children are in the most loving hands.
I was so thrilled that I was going to be able to capture images of her children and in some way repay the warm feelings and kindness she has always shown my family. New baby M was quite a bit older for a newborn session but she totally was so sweet and divine. Giving lots of beautiful awake goodness and then dropping off to sleep at the end for some perfect snoozy shots. And big brother C was full of energy and reminded me so much of my own Fraser at that age. My assistant got to spend the morning hanging out with him, creating snakes out of my garden plants and just generally having far too much fun. I wonder if mum realises that it was probably my assistant’s favourite morning here at the studio EVER!!!!!
Sessions like this, where it feels more like a morning with friends rather than work reminds me of why I love being a family photographer – this is what it’s all about. Great to see you again M, I hope you love the images as much as I do…
She has the most beautiful eyes
Look at this perfect tiny beautiful hand
Hmmmm, how old do you think he is??????
