This lovely family called me in to photograph their young baby Charlotte, as well as generally update their family portraits. They have a lovely home in Nedlands, and mum Nicola has some great ideas for tastefully displaying her images. Since our photoshoot, she’s had a particularly tough time with her eldest daughter being taken to hospital to have her appendix removed. What a scary experience, I can imagine nothing worse than seeing someone so small become so ill 
Hang in there Nicola, and I hope you enjoy your sneak peek x
I met these two lovelies with their mum and dad at a local park recently. Chloe was pretty reluctant to be photographed, so it’s just lucky really that I’m a fan of the pouty expression! She’s a character, and eventually warmed up, taking the lead from her big sister.
How sweet is Tom to his younger bro? I just love the image of him kissing him on the head…too sweet! Tom and Will are lucky enough to have the most beautiful family. I really enjoyed getting to know them during our morning session last week. Enjoy your sneak peek and I’ll be in touch very soon 
Meet Yazmin, the beautiful dark hair/dark eyed boy who alternated between giving us some lovely wide eyed shots, and then falling asleep on cue for some curled up sleeyp shots. He’s an absolute dream.
Nate came along to studio with his two gorgeous sisters last week, both of whom I had shot before when Willow was about Nate’s age. Such a cute bunch of kids, he’s clearly so adored by his older sisters, and was happy to give both cuddles and smiles.
Are you about to embark on your second wedding, and want a low key affair? Or have you decided to put your funds into a house/holiday/study, and are keeping your wedding very small, intimate and private? For a variety of reasons, we have recently had enquiries by so many couples who want to capture their wedding day professionally, and perhaps want to take one or two wall prints or some gift images, without the hefty price tag that comes attached to coverage all day by two photographers and elaborate wedding albums.
Enter the perfect solution: Wedding Sessions! The Wedding Session is just that, a photography session, very much like a portrait session, but for a fraction of the price. For just $180 you get one photographer for 90 minutes, which will result in roughly 50 images selected. These will be fully photoshopped and you will be invited to attend a viewing in our Fremantle studio where you will see your images live on the big screen, complete with a glass of champers or a fresh ground coffee. All images sold will be at our standard portrait pricing.
This is a fantastic opportunity to capture your Perth wedding in beautiful, creative portraits that you can treasure for a lifetime. If you thought professional wedding coverage was out of your budget, think again! Contact our Fremantle Studio now on 0411067481 to discuss your requirements.
Below is the wedding session of Sarah and Ren, shot by Holly Netto just prior to Christmas. They had Holly meet them at the park, and she was able to capture the ceremony, some family groupings and shots of the couple. Just what they wanted
It’s always the case, that when it’s crazy busy, the blog goes quiet. So to the outside world, we are doing nothing, when in fact we are so busy we don’t get time to blog!
This January has been our busiest month ever! From Boxing Day right through to the 31st, the day before schools tarted back, we simply have not stopped. Somehow we have managed to stay on track, and the framer has arrived today with the most beautiful wall portraits. There is a delivery of custom albums due next week, so if you are waiting for your images, expect a phone call towards the end of next week.
We’ve had the fortune to have met some of the most lovely families over this Christmas break, and have had some really wonderful sessions. I’m so sorry to you all that we didn’t get to blog them as we went along…there are so many hours in the day and as busy parents ourselves, we were already working well into the night to keep business afloat! So, with my apologies for the bulk upload, here are some sneak peeks of the clients we have met over the January break. We’ve also put these on our facebook page if you would like to tag them. You can find it here.
Check out Stevie’s gorgeous mop of curls! She’s losing the rest slowly, but the curly top persists. Just to match those stunning eyelashes. She came into studio this morning with her brother Oliver for some portraits, and while he wasn’t that keen on being photographed with her, we did managed to snap a sneaky few when he was otherwise engaged.
What better way to start of a fabulous new year than to capture this beautiful and heartfelt wedding. Savannah is gracious, poised, elegant, generous, warm….the list goes on…and on, and on really! And then you meet Stuart, the Scottish lad with the warm humour and a way of making you feel like you have known him forever, and you just can’t help but feel all is right with the world when two people like this find each other and come together.
Their wedding day was just beautiful, both Annie and I felt privileged to be a part of it. You only had to see the touches they had added to understand the special, caring people they are. Upon entering Frasers we were greeted with the most amazing kids table I’ve ever seen! Popcorn, twisties, lollies, activity booklets made especially, gifts for the flower girls…it was kiddie heaven. Almost. That grand accolade actually belongs to the CANDY BAR!! A perfect, old fashioned candy bar that opened at 3pm, to the eager delight of the kids who quickly scooped the treats into their favour bags.
The reception began with Savannah bringing out party hats, and two fantastic cakes emerged, one for baby William, who shared their wedding day with his first birthday, and one for Savannah’s father, a beautiful clog designed birthday cake in honour of his Dutch ancestry. It seems natural that Savannah and Stuart would begin their own wedding by honouring their family members, that’s just the kind of people they are. And the love and admiration they receive from their friends and family was obvious in the heartfelt speeches, which had me ducking behind my camera on occasion to hide a threatening tear!
From the Burswood for bridal prep shots, to Matilda Bay for the ceremony, up to Frasers for the lunch time reception, then into King Street for some bridal party shots, before heading to the Raffles to meet up with their friends, the day was just perfect…warm, intimate, relaxed and classy all rolled into one. So very them
Thank you both for sharing your day with us. Enjoy your sneek peaks x
