Mother & Baby

I don’t do a lot of family portraits or babies anymore but occasionally I can’t help myself when an ex-wedding client contacts me, or, a friend.  This is my good friend with her new baby.  I love the look of pure love in her eyes when she looks at her new bub – they are only so small for such a short time :-)

Have a lovely weekend everybody :-)

Annemarie & Daniel

Sometimes there are jobs that fill my heart with gratitude and happiness.  Sometimes there are jobs where I meet extraordinary people that touch me deeply – and this was one of them.  Creating this blog post made me a bit teary – I’m very sensitive … I have been known to cry at many weddings I’m shooting – but I hide it very well !

Annemarie asked me to document a morning at the Westmead Children’s hospital with her son Daniel.  He was born premature and had been living there for over 6 months and was nearly ready to go home.  This was a big transition for them and Annemarie wanted this part of their life to be recorded.  I was so incredibly honored to be asked.  In fact, I was a little bit nervous that I wouldn’t be able to capture what I wanted with the sensitivity and rawness I envisaged as I’ve never done a job quite like this before.

I hope to document more of Annemarie & Daniel’s life in the years to come – they are a special family.

Dara – a business woman

I got to spend Saturday morning with my lovely friend Dara who needed some portraits done.  Dara runs her own business and wanted to have some photos for social media, PR and marketing material.  We had such fun and it was amazing weather here this weekend in Sydney.

Recently I’ve been asked to do quite a lot of portraits for small to medium business owners who are are opting out of the stiff ‘school photo’ style portraits and are looking for something more natural and lifestyle driven.  Fun times for me :-)

With love,

Nerida
