The gorgeous Autumn colours, perfect afternoon light and beautiful family made for a perfect photo shoot.

Sweet baby Lottie, you were loved long before you were in their arms.

Joey James, you are one loved little boy.

Not long ago I had the pleasure of meeting the most beautiful family, to photograph the new addition to their family.

Beautiful baby Ellie and her family were in front of my camera recently, and she was just a dream to photograph. 

Sweet little Ruby-Jane, continuing my run of beautiful baby girls.

Their third precious baby, and the third time I have captured their newest addition.

This cheeky girl with the blonde piggy tails and  infectious smile is my niece Ruby Rayne, and last week she turned two! I had  to mark this occassion with some portraits of her, and it was so good to be back behind the camera. 

Although a few days late, as promised, here is announcement number two! And as it would turn out, I'm pretty predictable and there's no keeping secrets from you guys! After last weeks announcement I had numerous people message me saying they were sure they knew  what it would be...

As it seems to be the case these days, another year has flown by and we're now officially in 2019. I announced a few weeks ago that there would be TWO big things I needed to tell you this year and here is the first one...

It's been a whole year since I saw the A family for Isabelle's newborn photos, and I was so excited to see them again on the weekend.

Sweet darling Zoey and her family came and saw me today, and it was so lovely to see them!

On the weekend I met up with the B family for some fun family portraits.

The most darling baby girl and her parents visited me today, sweet little Akuach.

Everyone says it will happen. But when you're in the midst of round the clock feeding, sleepless nights, trying to work out how on earth to keep this tiny being safe, happy and healthy for the rest of it's life (and silently panicking that you can't!) you just don't believe them.
