Last year I had the pleasure of being asked to capture the moment at a naming ceremony for a lovely family and their little girl Ella. I had a lot of fun with the family and meeting their newest addition. The ceremony was a beautiful celebration of their wee one and all the love they have for her.
I was really excited when they got in touch again a few months later and booked a Cake Smash with me for her first birthday. Cake Smashes are always a lot of fun as long as you don’t mind the mess! We had to be a little creative because this one-year-old wasn’t too keen on getting her hands dirty. At least not at first!
Being asked back again is the best compliment a photographer can receive. It really makes my day and lets me know I’m on the right track with my work. So when this wonderful family got in touch this year to organise another shoot for the upcoming 2nd birthday, I was delighted. I was even more delighted when I heard all the ideas for it! Such a creative family with a lot of style! We mulled over some ideas, and Ella’s mum decided on a Tea Party themed shoot. She bought all the props and we crossed our fingers for good weather.
It really is such a privilege to be involved at these important moments of this little girl’s life. I’m so thankful for my job and the ability to connect with people and capture memories for them to treasure forever. x
