Red - North Brisbane Children's Photographer

I knew I had to use a one of a kind location for these photos when I saw the colour of the dress my friends had chosen for their little love. So grateful to the support of another beautiful local photographer for her help. Though my heart is always with black and white images, it is so much fun to play with colours too. 

Isn't she just divine?

Their World - Brisbane Outdoor Family Photography

So great to finally meet this little sweetheart in the lead up to Christmas last year after all the weather delays. How did these guys ever exist without her?  I've said it before and I'll say it again, there is no wrong age/time to photograph the ones you love. Just different levels of squishiness! 

Pregnancy after Loss

I can't begin to imagine how it feels to lose a child. We came close once. But close is not the same. 

I also cannot begin to imagine how it feels to be expecting another child afterwards. There would be the joyful anticipation on the surface I suppose. The face you had to show everyone.  But I think if you carefully scratched underneath you might reveal a whole range of other emotions. Fear, uncertainty and perhaps another layer of grief you didn't even know existed. Pain even.. and the inability to get excited for fear that yet again your heart may be torn out. 

I realise this is an uncomfortable topic. But I want to sit with it and feel it. It's the least I can do. And I hope it might encourage others to talk about it. 

A Baby Sister - Samford Newborn Photography At Home

I wonder if she will bring calm to the chaos or simply add to it? Either way she is so adored. And rightly so, because she is just perfect. I hope you've had a very special first Christmas with your fun big brothers sweet M x

If you'd love an at home session like this with your little loves please email me at xanthephotography@bigpond.com And remember.. there's no right or wrong age to photograph the loves of your life. Sometimes they are just more or less wrinkly than others! 

Adored - North Lakes Children's Photographer Brisbane

This little cutie stole a piece of my heart recently, so it was really great to meet her big brothers too. And amongst all our giggles and the chaos that goes along with photographing siblings, one thing was clearly obvious. And that's how much these boys adore their little sister. Aren't they all the cutest?!
