I think the best way to welcome this week is with a big dose of adorable!
Are you kidding me, with the cuteness!!!  How sweet is he?  Unreal!  I have had the very good pleasure of photographing this little prince/devil for the last two years now.
This little one is beautiful.  Here are few my personal favorites. Its always so sad saying godbye to my baby book clients.. hope you an come back and see me soon.  If anyone is interested in starting a baby book or know of  anyone who is pregnant drop me an email or call us and we can talk through our packages with you. We take beautiful photos of your gorgeous belly and then a perfect little baby a month later and so on till your babys first birthday.  More than ever, I  appreciate and realize the intense value in maternity photos.  I absolutly love mine,  and once Pierce was born and I had no longer a bump I loved the photos even more.  In capturing a glimpse of the beauty of growing a baby.  The magic in setting aside the struggles and challenges, and just simply appreciating the beauty of what is happening within the female body.  Not to mention,  allowing a woman going through so much,  to see herself in a different light… my lights.

You can’t possibly not fall hilariously in love with this wildly spirited, amazingly cute, arm waving,  cheeky little boy!   Imagination is one of the most spectacular gifts of childhood, and when you have grown ups around that encourage imagination and art and life and laughter… it clearly shines. Especially through the lens of a camera.
Have a look at some of my favorites from our fun filled sessions of Charlies first year with Exposure Photography. Its gone so fast….all i need to do now is make your book.  See you soon little man x

The wonderful Porritt clan welcomes their newest addition, Lyra Daisy.
The whole bunch of them, are spirited, loving, kind and all around fantastic people!  I have been lucky enough to be able to share some good times with them, and many laughs.
So I’ll leave you with some images from our newborn session.

Wouldnt you just love to receive this in your christmas stocking…? Anyone wanting crimbo shoots, you need to call now we only have a few hours left of studio time.

Your little angel comes into this world so tiny.  Anyone would be happy to look back at these photos on the first day of college… just a reminder on how fast time goes by. Its been two years, since Emma and Brian cam to the studio for their pics to be done, Emma kew exactly what she wanted…. I hope when your looking through them Emma i have achieved it all for you. Alfie has been an absolute darling, its been so much fun watching your little boy grow.  What could possibly be a more incredible life for me? I have no idea. This is bordering pretty good on perfection to me. Creating images of amazing people, adorable children, and fabulous personalities.

Here is a sneek preview of Alfies book.

Enjoy and dont be affraid to leave your comments and tell me what you think.

This is by far the best shot, well done Alfie for being a fansatic model.! x

And this is how we felt when we had to end the session, knowing that this was our final. Its been amazing watching you grow Alfie, hope to see you when you have some brothers or sisters.  xx

Enjoy and dont be affraid to leave your comments and tell me what you think…….!

I had someone say to me the other day… ‘well you must have so much time off during the week, really you only work weddings on the weekends’… If only that were true.
On that note, I thought I’d share with you all what my weeks look like…

I shoot weddings Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
Monday is my day off (which I always spend editing and answering emails), And feeling really bad on Pierce as this should be our day together!
Tuesday I shoot family sessions, baby book sessions, wedding viewings,

Wednesday is my day off, and I spend every minute with my beautifull little man, going to sign class, feeding group and making sure we have a great day together, My best day of the week.
Thursday I edit, answer emails, send out contracts and answer phone messages, do a few family shoots, Im working from nine till eight on a thursday….which takes me back to Friday… hey…. right back at weddings.   I love every moment of  it but I am a bit busy.

I feel I need to talk to you a little about our Baby book sessions.   We start  you off  by doing your maternity photos…. ( one of my favorite sessions) Then we continue your book with a session every month to keep track of your little one and to make sure you dont forget a single thing.   These sessions can include your christening and your childs first birthday.  We  spread the sessions over a year.  Evey parent who return to the studio to view there finals of  their little munchkins help me create the layouts,  we design everything to meet your needs.  Each parent who return are overwhelmed with the end result.   This has to be one of the most rewarding parts of my job and one of the sadest.

Im going to introduce to you one of my little darlings who has been with me since she was four months, she is now three and a half going on twenty three!  It would be cruel of me not to share a Photo of each session with you.   Lydel… you are absolutely beautiful.
I love all of you reading my blog, and am so excited to have such a warm response from so many of you about my shoots/weddings and daily happenings. You are all wonderful!

I dont think I can ever forget what had happened during this next shoot, I had asked Lee to hold Lydel up close to his face…… She is a busty little nude by the way, So we are getting right into the shoot and she wee’s all over her dad….. the funny thing is that Lee actually said “If she wee’s mind Andrea im going to get you!”   Big Oops sorry Lee……!

I remember the first day I meet this angel, I was having a bad day, one of those days.  I was trying to pull myself around,  pull my boots up… when along came  Ashleigh Rose and it all melted away.  What a gorgeous little creation.  What a joy to photograph.  Every studio session we have had has been a one to remember. I cannot beleive a year has gone so fast.  I hope you enjoy a few of my favorite images of a spirited, wonderful child.  What a fabulous job I have.  Im going to miss this one for sure. X

I hope you guys come back in to see me every year or so. x
