Newborn photography

Photographing babies is wonderful but can certainly be a challenge. There is nothing you can do to bribe these tiny creatures, nothing you can do to 'direct' them—you just have to keep them safe, comfortable, warm, well-fed (well, mum takes care of this part) and then you let them direct the session! Luckily their movements and poses are naturally cute so you just have to be poised, camera at the ready, to capture the magic.

We had the pleasure of shooting a family photo session in the lead up to the arrival of this little princess.

Photography around Canberra

Part of the beauty of Canberra is that it truly is the 'Bush Capital'—the city itself as well as the surrounding regions offer lots of opportunities for photographers to capture something a little different. We had the pleasure of traveling just over the ACT border to shoot some photos of this gorgeous family (including dogs and chooks) on their property.

Winter photo sessions

Winter in Canberra is just as beautiful as any other time of year for photo sessions. The days are usually clear and sunny, and the low golden light in the afternoons brings out the rich colours in the trees.

There is certainly a lovely, cosy feel to the photos when your subjects are all rugged up with cardigans, blankets and teddy bears. The rosy cheeks are perhaps the only giveaway that it was quite a chilly afternoon...

Portrait sessions

It's not often that people treat themselves to an individual portrait session, but it's something we highly recommend! We find that the most common time that someone will have a portrait session is to mark a milestone, in this case a significant birthday. What a lovely idea!
