two new babies to love

Last week I was so lucky to be able to photograph a dear friends new additions. Patrick and Angus.

This was the first set of twins I have photographed since being back in SA and I was both nervous and excited! I’m so happy with what we managed to capture!

I met Mandy 9 1/2 years ago after I had Cohenn and joined a mothers group. There are defiantly more kids now than when we used to catch up.

These guys have been in front of my camera a few times now, once when Flynn (now 4) was born for his newborn photos and last year when we visited them for family photos. And now again with 2 little extra people!

Thanks so much guys for coming all the way from Victoria so we could meet your new family members!

And thanks to Kerri-lee, Kelly and Donna for being my helpers on the day !

Last week I had beautiful little Willow and her family come join me in the studio.

We decided to go for a pink theme for her session, and I am so glad we did as I love how they turned out. Willow’s mum Aimee bought along the cutest little beanie so we had to get a few photos of Willow wearing it, she reminds me of a little gumnut baby! (see photo below)

Big sister Hattie also came along, and was equally as beautiful! I know I say it all the time, but I really do get lucky photographing the most good looking kids!

I can not wait to finish your gallery and show you all the photos we captured from the day Aimee x But until then, please enjoy your video !

I love when families come in and bring along a big Brother or Sister! It is really hard to say what sort of photos we will capture of them with their new baby! Some love being involved and some not so much !

I always have so much fun interacting with the older kids, having a chat with them, or playing with the studio toys..  And we do always manage to get some sibling shots, the challenge is so fun!

When Evie’s big sister Karlie came in to the studio for their session,  she was full of stories ! She was so fantastic at listening and sitting still when it was her turn to be in photos with Evie! After she also took some photos of a few set ups she designed (photo below!)

It was such a great session, it doesn’t feel like work for me at all!

Thanks so much Abby and Ben for bringing in your beautiful girls!

Enjoy your video 🙂

January Photo a Day project

~Renee Diaz Photography ~

Every year in December or January  I try and take a photo a day of my kids! Some days I get extra, towards the end of the month some days I get none! I haven’t been near a computer while we have been away so I am only now able to get the first couple of days up ! Each year I debate weather or not to put them on my personal page, or work page.. This year I have decided to put them all here on this blog page ! Ill just keep updating it through-out the month! These photos are nothing fancy- just a moment in time each day of my kids being themselves 🙂  I know when they are older these images will be just as (if not more) important as the posed images I have of them every where !

Thanks for looking, and enjoy a preview of my life x

Today we went to the movies and visited great Grandma G (you would think these would have been a photo a day image- but I forgot my camera!)

Dinner was hot chips at Ada Ryan Gardens 🙂

Payton- your imagination is amazing- listening to you play barbies (which you do every day for hours!) is so funny.

Sleep overs are the best- especially when its pancakes for breakfast

January 9th

Kids went for a sleepover so we could go out for dinner with friends (some missing- I tell you trying to organise a night where husbands are all home together AND baby sitters are available is harder than you think!). I think the last time we were all out together kid free was at one of our weddings.. and even then there were newborns there! Best mothers group ever! (IPhone pic!)
