Towards the end of last week Nicole got to sit down with Jamie and Adam, two of our recent maternity clients to review their lovely photographs from the photography session we had in our studio in Seattle. The photography session was a whole lot of fun, this is their first baby and Jamie is looking simply beautiful and having a good pregnancy. Here are a few edited previews for them to start the Monday morning off to a great start.
I’m just wrapping up deliver of some electronic photographs to some clients and couldn’t resist posting these two quickly. These were taken a few weeks after their son was born in their home in Seattle. As any parent knows the first few weeks of birth are a little crazy but the smiles and love on their faces show how much its all worth it. Such a special time and I always feel so fortunate to get the chance to be involved in a small way.
We have been very lucky recently to have had quite a few maternity clients that have come into our photography studio in Seattle which has been very exciting. There is something incredibly special about photographing something that is so amazingly beautiful and that is also about to change in a huge way in just a few weeks! Our recent maternity photography sessions have all been with couples expecting their first child which makes it especially wonderful and such an exciting time that I feel honored to get the chance to work with them.
Here we have the wonderful Bonnie and Ryan who came in last week and are visiting us again today to preview all of the beautiful photographs that we took of them. They brought in their pug as well and he was all keen to get involved, Ryan was sporting some lovely tattoos that he was keen to show off his ink which we were happy to do. We had such a blast working with them and can’t wait to see their reactions today, until then here are just a few previews for them.
Last week Nicole and I went over to meet the adorable Sydney Kate for the first time. Although we do a lots of our photography sessions in our studio in Seattle we typically do most of our newborn baby sessions at our clients home because its so much easier for them. For this visit we also got to meet the coolest bulldog ever along with Grandma who was visiting from California which was an added bonus.
I’m excited to get Mum and Dad into the studio so that they can see the results of that fun morning, but until then I put together a quick music slide show for them. Make sure the sound is turned on to enjoy these lovely photographs of this ever so special time for Mum and Dad. It was just lovely to meet the everyone and a privilege to photograph her so young. Click in the preview below to start the music video.
Sometimes when our young clients aren’t quite in the mood for having their photographs taken we often have to deploy different tactics to distract them and help them relax. This photography session that took place in our studio in Seattle we brought out the bubbles and enrolled Dad to help!
I feel really fortunate to get the chance to spend so much time with my young clients. I’ve photographed Noah since he was a couple of weeks old and have the pleasure of watching him grow and I get to see him every couple of months when mum brings him into our photography studio here in Seattle. Tomorrow we get mark his one year birthday with a fun shoot in the studio.
These photographs were taken of him at the end of last year that I never posted in the holiday rush so I thought I would today quickly.
This is a print that I finished a while ago and just had to post. To me there are few things more special than the first few weeks of a child’s life and its especially exciting when its the first child. I shot this photograph in our photography studio in Seattle and I just love the interaction between the three of them with Mum being so excited while baby looks at Dad who looks so proud.
I have been a slacker at getting photographs blogged these last couple of months. We have lots going on with planning for the rest of the year, client photography sessions in our photography studio in Seattle and some fun projects coming up. I’m going to see if I can get more posted over the next couple weeks. Until then I couldn’t resist posting these fun shots of little shoes that were thrown on the studio floor as the owners ran around and had some fun!
