It’s pillow fights with the kids, followed by tickles and cuddles. The way their little faces snuggle tightly into the nape of your neck and how they look at you when you laugh. It’s your life – in all it’s natural beauty.
I opened up my app to create a new post, and came across this collection that I’d obviously made to share last year 🙈 So here are some 2024 treasures for you to enjoy today. ❤️
I have so many collections that I’d like to share from the December holidays, but for now, here are just a few of my favourites.
Here’s what it looks like to have 3 photo shoots with the same photographer.
1. Newborn
2. 1st birthday
3. Farewell shoot as the family prepare to emigrate.
Sometimes I’ll photograph a family only once, but often I’ll photograph the same family many times. Just this week I photographed a family whose wedding I shot 12 years ago. I know this sounds silly, but I consider a lot of my photography clients friends. Entering your home and playing with your children feels really intimate to me. By the time I’ve left, I’ll probably know what you’re reading, which cook books you like to use, and which kid is into which TV show. We might talk about breastfeeding and other parenting things. You’ll also know about me and my family. We might even send each other podcast links that evening 🤣
Connection is honestly the most rewarding thing about my job.
It’s been a pleasure getting to know you Jemma. Good luck with your move to Melbourne, and I look forward to our next shoot together. ❤️ @jemmajadekruger
When @lucaphotography_co_za supplies cute behind the scenes content - you have to create a cute behind the scenes reel.
Thank you @ohhappydaydbn for connecting me with this gorgeous couple. @f0x_tr0t_ you were a dream to photograph, and I had such fun.
