I have been so incredibly fortunate lately to be surrounded by many, many newborn babies.  I was so excited to photograph baby Andi, born with a full head of hair and perfect little everything.  She was just lovely.

I am surrounded by babies at the moment – not only in my (amazing) work life but also in my personal life.  It is such a lovely feeling to see so many of my close friends starting (and adding to) their families.  To think ahead and dream of the memories our children will create together and to think back and compare them to the memories we have together from when we were growing up ourselves.  It is just such a special time that I am so grateful to be a part of.

.

Last night I travelled to Yorke Peninsula to a gorgeous property just outside of Port Broughton.  My friend lives there.  She has made the cutest baby.

.

Meet Max.  3 weeks old.  Hannah and Heath are oozing love for this little guy out of every single pore.

… and of course a photo in the ‘crop’.

.

Love you guys!

Yum!

That is all I can say about this cute little (9pounds 5ounces!) bundle.  I have been waiting a long time to meet this guy and I was so excited to be able to take his pictures today. Congratulations Peter and Sophie. He is just perfect.

Baby Dreaming

This little guy had me at the first cuddle. I could have just wrapped him up and snuggled him all day long.  He was just perfect in every way. I left this home dreaming of having a new baby of my own……

.

.

.

Totally. Simply. Divine.

Can I keep him?

Please?

This family is a little bit special to Head in the Clouds.  And especially to me.

.

Angela and Luke have been clients of mine since their eldest daughter was a newborn.  And we were so excited when they won our Head in the Clouds launch competition and we got to photograph them again. So last weekend it was time again for another installment of this little family of four who have captured our hearts and hold a very special place in the Head in the Clouds family.

.

.

.

If I could choose any piece of land to build my dream home on, this would have to be it.  This place is amazing.  You can tell why Angela and Luke fell in love with it.  As you walk along the terraces, creeks and stone stairways you feel like you are on the set of a movie.  It is just incredible.

.

.

.

.

Yes. This is all in their backyard. Magnificent.

I met this absolutely gorgeous family through our wedding winners John and Michelle.

.

From the moment I entered this house I felt a calmness that I can not explain.  This family were just so relaxed and happy and…. content.  It was a pure joy to photograph such love in a relaxed home.  I was mesmerised by Mr L who won my heart with his bowling elephants.

.

.

.

Thank you again for a lovely morning filled with giggles and fun.

Mt Lofty Botanic Gardens Mini Sessions …

It has been a whirlwind few weeks here in “the Clouds” … and a huge highlight has been the amazing success of our wonderful mini sessions … Held just last weekend at the Mt Lofty Botanic Gardens, we met so many new Adelaide families as well as caught up with past clients and of course our families who book their mini session in every year to keep their portraits up to date.  Mini Sessions are a fabulous, convenient and affordable way to update your family photographs regularly and capture some fun moments for you to display on your walls!

Here are just a few of the absolutely gorgeous families we met on Saturday……..

Ok.

So we are currently overdosing on newborns. We admit it. They are our addiction.

.

But honestly, what better addiction could we have? …

Meet Koby. He was peacefully growing in this belly only 8 short weeks ago.

.

.

.

.

.

.

Pure gorgeousness.

Thanks for a great morning Bec and Garry. Your little man is just delightful. Enjoy every second.

Wow. We get to do the coolest things with our job. Kate and I often sit down with a cuppa and marvel at all of the places we get to go and people we get to meet. We are SO lucky.

.

Adam and Kelly are one of those ‘Wow’ families. Absolutely stunning as well as beautifully down to earth, kind people.  And look what they created!  A gorgeous gorgeous (did I mention how darn gorgeous she was?!) baby girl. Baby Mya at 6 weeks old.

.

I could have bundled her up and taken her home (they wouldn’t let me).

Pretty darn cute huh?!

.

Don’t forget we have our Winter Mini Sessions approaching VERY quickly and places are filling fast so be quick!

.

Gosh I love my job.

The sooooper smooth skin, the gorgeous peach fuzz, the fluffy hair … and the brilliant toothless smiles … ahhh … is there anything sweeter than a newborn?

We absolutely love photographing newborn babies … there is not a single shoot that is the ’same’ as any other … these little souls so blissful in their sleepiness and wide eyed curiosity … what a world they have to discover ….

.

Thank you for a wonderful afternoon Andrea & George, your little man is soooooo cute! My 6 year old daughter just said “oh mum, that baby is beautiful!” …. I’ll have your full gallery up shortly.
