As a Sydney newborn photographer, I was able to use the beautiful summer weather to offer Johnny’s parents an outdoor shot as an add on to the studio session. This is something I offer during the warmer months as we can take advantage of our fantastic outdoors.  I was really excited when a cute little wooden wagon arrived just in time for Johnny’s session and it suited the garden setting perfectly. Johnny actually smiled when I put him in it and he looked so comfortable and cosy. It seemed as if they were made for each other! It is amazing to think that in just 12 months time Johnny will be standing and will be able to pull the wagon along himself – they just grow up so incredibly fast. I loved Johnny’s gorgeous, long black hair and cheeky face and the bond between him and his dad was already obvious. One of my favourite shots is when a new mother cradles her child in her arms and you can see the love that shines in her face. I also love the close shots of the newborn baby’s hands and fingers.  I enjoy watching all first time parents and these parents were so obviously proud of their new son and were super excited about the chance to capture their love for him in timeless photographs.

I love sharing where I shop for all of my props – the little blue knit pants are from Make with Love, the gorgeous maroon blanket is from Love that Prop and the incredible wooden wagon is from Drops and Props.
