First look: Elsje and Clara

The best kisses

I first met Clara when she was barely a little bean and now she is growing into a lovely little lady! In mid-February, we had the pleasure of hosting the Fourie family, including grandparents visiting from Beijing, in the Bear & Dragon studio. What a fun afternoon! Clara was a good sport with multiple outfit changes. Good thing we had grandpa to keep her smiling.

Thank you Elsje, Clara and family

PS. Happy Friday!

What happens with a gorgeous Italian redhead meets her Isreali prince? In this case, elegant Amelia! I had these two lovely ladies in the studio last week and had an amazing time playing and snapping pictures. At eight months, Amelia was a skilled sitter and scooter, pro at outfit changes and all around doll. Please enjoy!

The most wonderful year

Hello my pretty…

It is hard to believe but it is one year ago today that our little angel came into the world. It really has been the most wonderful year. Bababoo has an amazing happy spirit and fills each day with light. She is my most beautiful adventure. Happy birthday Zoe!

So how do we celebrate such a momentous day? The only way we know how, by shoving chocolate cupcakes into our mouth. Behold, the cake smash.

This week the most marvelous little sprite, along with her mother and grandmother, graced the Bear & Dragon Studio. She danced, she played, I photographed. What fun! I am proud to present a few snaps from our hour that went way too fast. Happy Friday!

First look: Sweet Sandra and Yannick

Bright eyes

What a wonderful day. The more I shoot the more I understand exactly who I am as a photographer. The clean and crisp look of the studio is gorgous and consistent but what really makes my heart jump and puts a smile on my face is when I can capture the interaction, the gentle intensity that is in the relationship between mothers, fathers, sons, daughters, brothers, sisters, grandparents and even dogs!

Here is a first look at our session today with Sandra and Yannick. A little angel with a mischievous glint in his eye. Thank you so much for the pleasure of your company.
