Maternity Session: Madeline and Andreas | Sydney Maternity Photographer

madeline-blog-01

On a coolish Spring day I had the pleasure of capturing Madeline and Andreas in Sydney’s Botanic Gardens before they welcomed their first child in to the world – which can you believe ended up happening the very next day after our maternity session!

The couple chose the Botanic Gardens for their maternity photography location as Andreas is from Greece and wanted to be able to share the photographs with family back home and to showcase all that Sydney and Australia has to offer.

One of the best parts of photographing in this location are the many options to work with. Beautiful lush backdrops of greenery, city skylines and the magnificent harbour all provide unique and lovely scenes making the photography session quite varied and interesting. We spent a few hours just casually walking around the gardens, chatting about the new member of the family about to arrive and enjoying all that the location had to offer. As it was a slightly overcast and cool day, we were quite lucky to have a lot of the place to ourselves making for an easier session! Nothing worse than battling through crowds of people to get those beautiful photos.

Andreas and Madeline welcomed little baby Mia to the world the next day, so I feel very lucky to have shared that special time with them before she arrived. They will always look back on these photographs with fond memories now!

Wedding: Jordana and Brett Watson’s Bay | Sydney Wedding Photographer

JordanaCohen-2A sunny Sunday morning in Watson’s Bay, the perfect setting for a engagement party brunch. This is exactly what most of the guests who arrived for Jordana and Brett’s special day thought were in for. Little did they know, that in just over an hours time the happy couple would become husband and wife!

As guests arrived at the house of Jordana’s parents, they were treated to beautiful fresh breakfast treats, coffees and juices. Many of the guests mingled amongst themselves, taking time to wish the happy couple all the best for their recent engagement. Only a select few in the crowd were in on the little secret.

As Jordana and Brett stood up to say a few words many in the crowd were none the wiser, only assuming the couple were standing up to thank them all for attending and sharing in the special day. What happened next had quite a few of the guests in shock! The couple announcing that not only were they planning on getting married, they were doing so in 30mins time!

The guests were directed down the stairs towards Gibsons Beach where the chuppah was set up ready for the wedding to take place. Jordana and Brett followed behind accompanied by their parents, walking them towards the ceremony all holding hands as Elvis Presley’s ‘Can’t Help Falling In Love’ played.

After the ceremony, I headed to capture some gorgeous photos of the newly married couple! We had the perfect backdrop of Watson’s Bay and surrounds which made for some beautiful photographs of the pair. Looking so in love, Jordana and Brett were naturals in front of the camera so it made my job very easy!

Once back upstairs at the house, it was time for some words from the groom about his gorgeous wife and the afternoon’s festivities. Brunch was served up in the kitchen and guests were invited to help themselves to so many delicious treats. All in all, a perfect surprise Sunday wedding with a gorgeous couple!

Celebration: Meera’s First Birthday Party | Sydney Family Photographer

MeerasFirstBrithday-179Beautiful little Meera celebrated her first birthday with family and friends at a park in Sydney on probably one of the hottest days of the year!

Thankfully, the parents had thought ahead, and supplied all the children with cold drinks, bubble wands and water pistols. This made for the perfect party as the kids (and adults!) ran around enjoying the sunshine and squirts of the water gun.

Meera was spoilt with lots of cuddles, gifts and cake on her special day. She even managed a nap in the heat!
