{Fun} Candice's Family - Johannesburg Child Photographer

Candice is a big fan of Pinterest so when she booked her photoshoot with me for Christmas, she had all these awesome ideas for our shoot.

Her 2 little ones are such sweet hearts and you may remember little
Matthew from his newborn shoot 
Sadly his beautiful mop of hair has fallen out, but he is still such a gorgeous little boy!

We did this shoot before Christmas, so we started with the Gorgeous Tree that Candice's sister set up.
Then we went for a walk in the estate where they stay and found some gorgeous spots where little Chelsey had a great time.

Why are photos important?

Many people feel that photography and especially professional photography is a luxury. And I can understand why people don’t place as high a value on photography as some others. This is a story I wanted to share with you from an overseas photographer who got this letter from one of her clients.

Because you never know when to late is.

Jeanine -

Today I am writing for a couple of reasons. I have some quiet time at the moment and need to get a couple of things off my mind. I will leave this for my husband to deliver to you when he is ready.
 

You photographed my wedding, you photographed my first pregnancy and my first baby. I contacted you awhile back to photograph my 2nd child and family.

After getting prices and realizing I would want all of the pictures as we love your work – I decided against spending $500+ – which is what I normally spend for portraits and prints with you.. Please know it is not because I don’t value your amazing eye, or how much we love the experience.

That week that I decided to NOT do a session with you, this is how I spent some money.


{Baby Bump} Dominique - Johannesburg Maternity Photographer

 Baby's First Year

Dominique is the wonderful Mommy behind
Preggi Perfect Retreats so when she told
me she was expecting I was super excited :D  She already has a gorgeous little girl Mika
and has now had her second little girl Kyla. Her newborn pics will follow soon.

Dom is incredibly photogenic so I just love doing her pictures! And her family is so beautiful 
that its always such a pleasure to join up with them.

These pictures were done at Sean's mom's house, which is Gorgeous :D And fitted so well. 

And Thank you to Christie for helping me :)

Look out for Kyla's Birth story soon, and her newborn shoot.

{Together} De Waal Family - Pretoria Family Photographer

 Sweet little Lianay won my forst ever Cutest Baby Competition, when she was around 6 months old.
Now she is a just as gorgeous toddler with a little brother on the way :D

I joined the De Waal family at their home to get some lovely family photos. We had great fun and Lianay 
enjoyed playing around with her bubbles and her parents :D

{Baby Bump} Vicky - Pretoria Maternity Photographer

 Vicky is a fellow photographer and designer, I absolutely loved doing her shoot because she was so
prepared, brought a bunch of props that we didn't even get to hehehe but knew exactly what she wanted! 

Little Aiden had a great time as we fussed over his little brother in Mommies tummy and especially
enjoyed his treats later in the shoot.

Thank you Vicky and Bruce for asking me to capture this special time for you,
Watch out for little Callen's newborn pics soon ;)
