When I look at these photos I can still hear the girls giggling… It made me think of my sister and I when we were that age. You are laughing so much that your stomach hurts and yet
you cannot explain to any person why
The “H”s made me think of my family, a lot of people with their own beautiful language. They have three conversations at a time and yet
everyone knows exactly what is going on. This bunch was so lively I decided that the best way to photograph them would be Lifestyle photography here at the real life studio. So we
made jokes, had everyone lying on top of each other and little “M” doing his signature model move (lying on his stomach next to whoever was being photographed…
) For the Real Life Studio experience come and join us for a morning of family fun and laughter ( and gorgeous photos)

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!

Now you tell me, how many photos do you have of yourself that you would like to show off….? Now don’t you think it’s time you had a photoshoot done for yourself? Something that flaunts your assets and brings out who you truly are
It has to show your personality, just basically you having a
good time. Thinking, Laughing and joking around! J is a property developer and so he needs great professional profile photos which can be sent out with the images of whichever property he has developed. And I think we did him more than justice
What you see is what you get is what he told me as soon

as he entered the studio. He is shy and a bit of an introvert but I soon got him talking about his passions in life (as well as me talking about my passion which is photography) and then he just relaxed and got more comfortable. So set a date with yourself and come and see what the hype is all about!

Have you ever had someone love you truly unconditionally? So much that you actually mean the world to them…? C’s mom is like that. This little boy is ecstatic
everytime his mom comes closer to pick him up or even just talk to him. He smiles and performs
I think he is the perfect baby model and they absolutely need to enter these professional baby photos into a magazine like
baby & me or living & loving. He was an absolute pleasure to have in the studio, I smile and then he smiles. And he absolutely adores playing peek-a-boo. For more information on professional baby photos contact us on info@louisedieselphotography.co.za

Each and every kid is driven by something they don’t even understand yet… It is called curiosity
This urge is the thing which makes them learn more and more of the world around them in an effortless way. So use this to your advantage when photographing kids. Tell there is a birdie (any kind of animal they like) in the lens of the camera and they should try and see it. Another great photography tip is to ask them to pull funny face at the camera and then show it to them on the screen. This usually gets them going. Anything fun and interesting makes kids want to participate so keep your shoot just that…!

Showcasing some of the weekend’s photies:
As a first time client getting introduced to taking
studio photo’s of my daughter and myself, I didn’t know
what to expect and was rather quite nervous. From
the minute we met Riani, she made us feel so comfortable …...
