The last weeks of a first pregnancy are so beautifully unlike any other time in a woman’s life. I think (with the benefit of hindsight, lol). In amongst all the hope and expectation and a sort of physical hiatus (while our bodies gear up for the journey that is labour), and even notwithstanding all the [...]
So, I have been thinking for quite some time about newborns, and not just my own little one quietly brewing away in my belly. Thinking and thinking and thinking, and not knowing quite which direction to go in. And then I met Ashley Skjaveland, who probably has no idea of the impact she has had [...]
Each time I meet one of these new little human beings, I am utterly fascinated with how different they all are from each other, and how much personality they have managed to grow in such a short space of time. Baby L has the most incredibly intelligent gaze, I will certainly not be surprised to [...]

…to all the members of the beautiful S family, as belonging to my gorgeous partner-in-weddings Kim Selby! Since, despite many promises, I never managed to get some maternity photos of her, we made sure to grab a few snaps of Kim and new baby Jasper before he turned 2. He is such an old soul, [...]

As always, patience (not mine, his gorgeous parents’) is rewarded, and we have ended up with these beautiful images. Dad [...]

It seems bonnie baby boys, with more than a wee bit of padding and length on them, have been flavour of the month here lately. How lucky am I? Here is the perfect baby J, photographed at my studio in Surrey Hills, Melbourne. Just a quick a preview today as my computer is off to [...]

I adore the children’s book Owl Babies, by Martin Waddell, and as soon as I saw the hanging pic of baby K she reminded me so much of a little owl in a tree, eyes closed! The hanging knitted cocoon is a new newborn prop for me, and divine baby K kindly tried it out. [...]

Welcome beautiful baby Zeke, photographed at 3 weeks of age. I love these first two images, they show just how ‘on’ to me he was, and just how alert! This little darling has so much personality already, thankyou so much Pauline and Stuart for allowing me to meet him and share in these few precious [...]
