Melissa & Michael had their first baby, the adorable Grace, in August of 2008. I had only just started building my portfolio and they were my second ever official maternity/newborn clients. This image of Grace remains one of my favourite newborn images, and I use it on a lot of my marketing material.

So late last week I received an email from Melissa telling me that they were only a couple of weeks off the birth of their second child and could I please squeeze them in for a maternity/newborn session! Could I ever! It’s such a great feeling to have clients come back to me, and a real warm and fuzzy thrill to see a child whose face you know so well from when they were only one week old.









Melissa & Michael, it was so lovely to see you both yesterday and you were an absolute pleasure to photograph again. Grace, you stole my heart two years ago and you still have it! I am really looking forward to meeting your little brother or sister in a few weeks. xxx

such a sweet family and such gorgeous memories you have captured for them. i simply adore the image with the bright red rocking horse.
Warm and tender images – lovely to see. Grace looks simply beautiful and the contemplative shots of Melissa and Michael are perfection.
