As professional photographers we are fortunate enough to see a lot of kids grow up right before our eyes.
Our first meeting with your little one is when they are spending all of their time growing in your tummy.
Personally I love taking pregnancy photos as there is just something so magical about the miracle of being
pregnant and bringing a child into this world.
There is no thing quite as beautiful as a newborn. Taking photos
of newborn babies is like walking into an alternate reality. The studio is normally really warm to keep them
comfortable and the lights are turned down to allow them to open those little eyes… I absolutely adore the
look every new daddy gives their baby sleeping in their arms!
Then a very interesting stage is baby photography
at roundabout 6-8 months, when your little one can just just sit up by themselves and just love being the centre
of attention. When you tickle them they tend to laugh from their bellies and there is no sound quite as beautiful…
I think toddlers are just about the most interesting little subjects I have ever met
They are full of energy
and ask about a million and one questions every day. They love to challenge you, but as soon as you start speaking
in their langauge (favourite stories, Barney songs and a marshmallow as treat at the end of the toddler’s photos)
pretty soon you will have them laughing, singing and playing along to everything you want them to do. Taking
photos of toddlers are feels like a gym session but seeing the beautiful results will make it all worth it…

Happy holidays
We are officially closed for 2009! Thank you to everyone for a wonderful year filled with good memories and beautiful photographs….. we will see you all in 2010! Happy holidays!!!! mwah!

Photographing food is probably one of the hardest things you can ask a photographer to do. Ice-cream and ice-cubes melt, salad and meats dry out and many more…

That’s why we as professional food photographers have learnt that you do a mock set-up of your plate and fiddle with the professional lighting until you have got it exactly right, and only then do you bringin your delicious plate of food and start photographing.

We specialise in food photography, be it for a front cover of a magazine or the insides of a glossy new cookbook. We love to share our passion for food through our creative food photography!

I was very excited (and just a little bit nervous) when meeting Marie & Roberto for their maternity photoshoot. Marie sent me some samples which she liked and compared my work and style to the great Linnea Lenkus. I feel very privileged by this comment and it just made me extremely happy. Thank you to everyone who has and is still supporting my passion in life

First up we had Marie and her two little girls, let me tell you they were just such a pleasure to work with. They tried to help me in any way possible and were very open to new ideas. Thanks girls, you are true little models at heart!

I can’t remember how many times Roberto told Marie that she looked truly beautiful, it was so precious! He is one of the few men who love their womens pregnancy and it was very special to experience the bond these two incredible people share. Marie is extremely comfortable in her own skin and this really came forward in the photos…

Roberto & Marie all the best for you both with the rest of the pregnancy and I can’t wait to meet little Allegra
(PS-I adore the name…)

Finding the perfect wedding photographer is almost like finding the right partner… You have to click with this person and this is the way which will lead to great wedding photographs. If you are comfortable kissing and laughing in fornt of your photographer (which is probably exactly what you will be doing right after getting married you have made a good decision) So have a look at our professional photography portfolio and give us a ring so that we can set up a meeting and get to know each other!

Why is it that whenever you think of a wedding nowadays there is just so much money involved? I think the focus has been shifted to having the best rather than the true meaning of the day which is 2 people pledging their love to each other and makinf the life-changing promise to be forever faithful. A wedding doesn’t need an expensive venue, over the top drapings and imported flowers… Instead use your creativity and plan everything simple ![]()

Pregnancy is a really special time in every woman’s life. You will probably only experience pregnancy two or three times in your life, so it is truly special to have professional pregnancy photos done, so that you can look back at these photos and remember everything (yes from heartburn to the cravings and of course hearing that little heartbeat for the first time…)
We are female photographers who specialise in pregnancy photos. Because we function on the same emotional level as you we are able to capture the very essence of your pregnancy…

“The shoot was so much fun thanks to Louise and Riani who managed to get smiles from everyone including a very tetchy 10 month old and a sulky 6 year old!
We had so many beautiful photos, it was impossible to choose –we ended up getting all of them!”
