On Sunday 7th May, we will be having a special 'older baby' mini-session day at the Step Up Studio in Howden to try out some gorgeous new props and outfits for our older baby clients (3-12 months) and create some new portfolio images.   Whether your baby is sitting, crawling, walking or enjoying lots of tummy time and smiles, this is a great opportunity to capture their latest stage of development with some beautiful images. The mini-sessions are 20 minutes each and we are aiming for around 2-3 images per session, which you will receive as a digital download following the event. The session To View More >>

It's always a privilege to share in our client's treasured moments, and especially when you get to see them again to capture more of those special memories for them.  We photographed Nikii and Peter's wedding a few years ago, so when I heard they were expecting a sibling for little Daniel, I was super excited for them and delighted to photograph Nikii and her beautiful bump. Daniel was excited too and couldn't wait to tell me all about his new baby brother (and his dumper truck!). Here are some of my favourites from their photo session.
