Welcome to the World..

Well it feel like it was only last week Barbie came to me with the news that she was expecting, and Today- here we are getting to watch her give birth. I guess time fly’s in isolation.

The whole thing was all over in less than an hour, and not a peep of noise from anyone in the room.

I got there as barbie was trying to ease the pain in the shower. Soon after she was in the bath and before we knew it – baby was out. The whole time Barbie kept smiling- you would have never have know she was in pain.

They are yet to decide on a name- however I’m sure by the time they come to the studio for the newborn session they would have picked one. It’s not to late to head over to my previous Facebook post in let me know your suggestions 🙂

Enjoy the photos below from Barbies birth- I’m super lucky she has allowed me to share these on Social media.

Growing bump..

Before we went into this session- my plan was to take just a couple of photos so Barbie and Ken had some images to keep and show generations (and you guys) for years to come. After the first couple of images, ideas came flooding to me and I knew I’d end up taking so many ,over a couple of day’s – because really what else is there to do at the moment? lol

We couldn’t decide on outdoors or studio session- so we went for both.

Do you have a favourite?

I actually have a heap of maternity dresses that clients can use, however Barbie wanted something different that fitted her unique figure, so sorry to other clients, but these dresses are not in my normal collection.

I’m really looking forward to next weeks outdoors ‘Real life maternity session’ that’s booked and all future sessions, can you tell??

Here are some images we captured 🙂

Hopefully Barbie births on her due date, which is THIS Sunday for those wondering 😉

Boy or Girl?

Its seems to be the popular thing at the moment to have all your friend’s over and in front of them find out the sex of your baby. I hear the cool kids are calling them gender reveals. And while many of us have had to put our celebrations on hold, these guys went ahead with theirs.
Those who know Barbie, knows she loves any excuse for a party. I was invited to celebrate with her and Ken’s nearest and dearest and captured the moment they found out what their little buddle of joy is ! She went all out for her gender reveal party. Fairy lights, cake and a balloon wall. I must say I enjoyed the afternoon, even if it was a bit windy and everyone was a bit wobbly on their legs late into the day 😉

Check out some photos below, there was so much food and laughs.

And of course the thing you are all dying to know- Barbie is having a GIRL, I mean how could she not with her love of all things pink! Did you have a gender reveal? Or would you if you were to have another baby?! Have you seen a cool way to find out other than the balloon or cake way? Feel free to leave a comment and let us know x

We’ve got a date for her maternity photos (weather depending) – so stay tuned…

ITS A GIRL!

Look who’s Expecting !

I may have shut the studio for the time being, but today I made a special exception. I was so happy when this beautiful lady contacted me with her good news!
Congratulations Barbie and Ken. Feel free to leave a congrats message below ..
I made sure we stayed the recommended distance apart during this shoot, however I can’t say the same for these two- they couldn’t keep their hands off each other.
I’m really happy with what we captured, and I’m really looking forward to having them in front of my camera again soon to follow along their journey

🙂 Stay tuned…

Cake smash Birthday fun

Celebrating with a cake smash is such a fun way to remember your little person turning one. I often find it turns into a family affair, whether or not it’s chasing them around the studio, cuddles in between, or older siblings teaching the birthday child what to do ! No matter what they are always lot’s of fun, and provide everyone involved, including me, lots of laughs !

Here are a few images from Hendrix’s cake smash , I photographed him for his newborn photos and also a extended family session, so I really loved smashing some cake with him too 🙂 They really do grow so fast that first year.

Hopefully I am able to get back in the studio soon and capture more of these fun sessions for everyone! Once we have passed winter, outdoor cake smash sessions are also an option , feel free to get in contact if you’d like more info x
