Shooting Babies the first studio session for 2009 was photography for IWDIG members with a twist. Not your ordinary photoshoot where everyone is geared up for screaming babies, no these little ones and even the bigger kiddies upstairs, in the alternative studio, behaved like little cherubs. Grace and Dylan may have been the greatest wrigglers known to man but a quick rendition of “What’s the story in Balamory?” accompanied by frantic waving & calling from the parents soon grabbed their attention allowing a few more shots.

Above all, patience and fun was the order of the evening and all of the equipment, settings and setup in the world won’t get a decent picture if you’re not ready to have fun. Grace a mere slip of a thing at just 4 months and Dylan a veteran,  well he’s nearly 1, were it has to be said model examples – you don’t get many kids so well behaved at their ages during a photoshoot much to the relief of the photographers.

It’s all gone baby crazy.. no feeds or changes but in between cuddles time for a few more shots!!! It’s obvious of course you would want to book a photographer who photographs in a style that you like, but sometimes it just isn’t that simple. On the day we did connect and had a blast.  Child portraits are amongst our most treasured possessions they must be taken at a relaxed pace to let their personalities unfold.

We would also like to thank all of the parents for letting us capture the smiles of their precious children, and the older models too for their professionalism. As for the rest of the pictures – well there HERE
