Olivia: 10 weeks | Somerset West Baby Photographer
Meet little Olivia. She was born 7 weeks premature and it took her a little while longer to reach average newborn weight. She is doing really well now and it was such a joy to spend some time with her and her lovely family. She was very alert during the shoot, but since she gets cold very easily, I had to work fast! Olivia has a beautiful complexion and looks just like a little rose. I know that she is going to bring her parents much love and joy!
Two sisters and their families: Larissa
And here are the rest of the pics from the session I mentioned in my previous post. I just love the photo of the three of them together where the little one is cupping her brother’s face with her one hand - how cute is that?
Goldilocks | Somerset West Portrait Photographer
I am totally in love with this little girl’s hair! Her mom takes art classes and is in the process of doing sketches of each of her children. She wanted some proper portraits to use when doing sketches of her 2-year old daughter and I ended up taking hundreds of photos!
And off course I couldn’t leave without taking a few photographs of her sweet baby sister.
Tori: 4 months old | Somerset West Baby Photographer
Tori is only four months old, but already a real bundle of femininity. Sweet and gentle, she was such a joy to meet. And she is so in love with her dad, she kept on staring endlessly into his eyes - so cute!
Jamie: 11 months
Jamie is a real cutie - such a friendly little guy and very keen to smile at the camera!
Bailey | Somerset West & Stellenbosch baby photographer
I just love the name Bailey! She is 10 months old and very curious about everything around her. She made me work very hard and I had to use up all my tricks to keep her occupied long enough to get a few pics! Here are a few of my favourites.
Jeanine and her girls | Stellenbosch & Somerset West family photographer
Jeanine wanted portraits taken of her and her two girls as a birthday gift for her husband - I’m sure he was very glad it was a surprise, apparently he hates being in front of the camera! Baby Jemma was smiling and gurgling happily while we were getting ready for the shoot, but as soon as she saw the camera, all smiles disappeared and we had a very tough time getting her to just look up, never mind at the camera…I suppose she takes after her dad (-:
My Granny and I | Somerset West Baby Photographer
This little guy’s grandmother lives in Somerset West and when his mom and dad decided to come down from Joburg for a visit, his mom booked a shoot for him and his granny as a gift. What a wonderful idea and a great way to remember the visit and capture the special bond between them!
Healthy baby boy
It was such a pleasure to work with this beautiful little boy - would you believe that he is only eight weeks old? He is strong, healthy and happy and gave me such a beautiful smile that I almost (but not quite!) forgot to capture it! I had him picked up and put down, on his back and on his tummy, with hats and without hats, and through it all he remained happy (just complained once for a little snack, poor thing) and cooperative, even falling asleep towards the end. Thank you, sweet little man, it was great fun working with you!
My Friend’s Family
Celest is a friend of mine. Her youngest daughter was born two months premature and after they were able to eventually take their precious baby home, I was given the opportunity to photograph their family. Anina, the eldest, is three years old and Carli is two months.
Happy Hannah
For Hannah’s first birthday, her parents decided that she should come for a proper photo shoot.. And what a joy she was! I have never seen a baby enjoy a shoot this much, she was laughing and shrieking with joy all the way through!
Mia’s Christening
Little Mia was Christened in Bloemfontein and looked like a European princess with her beautiful dress and cape. She has such a delicate face!
