If this little face doesn’t just make you want to smile I don’t know what will…
We are roundabout 7-8 months old and really just love the world and everything in it. Ok, I confess I am going through a mommy-only stage right now and I absolutely adore spending time with her. I will smile (and drool) and even laugh right from my tummy just at the sight of my mommy. These are the beautiful stages which we aim to capture at our Real Life Studio.

We are humans and we enjoy to laugh together and share in each other’s company. I love the way you can see exactly just how much mom loves this little angel
There is just something special about the bond that a mom and daughter share, I can’t even think of words to describe it. I believe to capture the personality of babies and toddlers you need to understand them and the things which they value. For instance, toddler’s just love to think that they can stand behind a 5cm pole and that you cannot see them… And in the same way a baby gets a lot of joy to see their mom’s face each and every time she hides behind something and jumps out to surprise you.
If you are looking for photos which capture that little something extra to let your personality shine through, look no further. For more information contact us on info@louisedieselphotography.co.za or give us a call on 011 869 7759

The Real Life Studio Photography

Someone once told me that I am like a little Chinese quote book, because I am always quoting inspirational and motivational quotes
So today’s blog is about newborn baby photography and quotes. We have a climate controlled studio especially for these little angels. The aircon stays on all through out the photoshoot to ensure that your little one is snug and comfortable even when they are undressed.
We know that these little ones routine is very important and that is why we schedule their newborn photoshoot so that it slots into their schedule perfectly. We also understand that all these little ones want to do is eat and sleep so we don’t mind stopping the shoot halfway through so that baby can be fed. I just love the look on a newborn’s face right after they have been fed, contentedness… Here are a few of my favourite baby quotes:
“Babies are such a sweet and nice way to start people.” “When that kid looks into your eyes and you know its yours, you know what it means to be alive.”
“Children reinvent your world for you.” “Every baby born into the world is a finer one than the last.”
“What feeling is so nice as a child’s hand in yours? So small, so soft and warm, like a kitten huddling in the shelter of your clasp.”
“It was the tiniest thing I ever decided to put my whole life into.” “Every child born into the world is a new thought of God, an ever-fresh and radiant possibility.”
“A baby will make love stronger, days shorter, nights longer, bankroll smaller, home happier, clothes shabbier, the past forgotten, and the future worth living for.”

Newborn baby photography and quotes

Ahhh, what can I say about newborn babies that can ever do them justice
The saying that newborn babies are newborn and pure never really meant something to me, but once you start spending a lot of time with them you notice that they are a little bit like I imagine angels to be. Gorgeous and you can’t stop looking at them (and most of the time
they smell really nice too) Newborn baby photography is our speciality, we put a little bit of our souls into each and every newbron photograph that we take. They leave an imprint on my life which will stay with me forever. I really do
love taking photos of newborn babies and I can’t wait to one day photograph my own newborn angels (might as well install studio lighting into their bedroom
)

It seems to me that there is a lot of parent out there who planned to have their babies in 2010 (soccer babies
) Since this year has started we have been doing a lot of maternity photography as well as newborn photography. Just the other day I had Mom, Dad & baby in the studio dresses in their soccer kits and baby wear soccer socks… too cute! Taking photos when you are pregnant is not always something pregnant moms are sure they want to do. We are women photographers so we have an understanding to how you feel about your changin body. With creative lighting and flattering props (and just a tad of photoshop magic) we will make you look your absolute best… So for more info contact us on 011 869 7759 or send us an email on info@louisedieselphotography.co.za

her start to fuss or cry. She is absolutely contec about anything and everything. I am so grateful your sister referred you to us, because these beautiful baby photos are yours to treasure forever and ever!!!

What is it about babies that makes us smile…? Is it the naughty twinkle in a baby boy’s smile or the rosy cheeks of an angelic baby girl?! Somehow they spread joy and love wherever they are (well most of the time anyway
) This little baby boy chose today to take a break in his routine by not taking a late morning snooze. So he wasn’t too smiley when they walked through through our doors for their professional baby photos. But in the studio we had no trouble getting him to crack a smile and laugh from his belly
Between Mom, Granny and me we know all the secrets to getting babies to laugh when they are having their baby photos taken. Photographing babies is all about making it about fun and games, playing peek-a-boo behind a camera and much, much more!!! I find that the more you smile when taking photos of babies the more likely they are to smile right back at you. So just have fun!

The best memorable moment in our lives was when Baby Bibi Fatima was born. The second best moments were when we came in to the Louise Diesel studio to capture ourspecial family memories…
