Couple shoot – Tracey and Leonard

Cuteness overload!!!

This cute couple are getting married in November at Bakenhof in Wellington!  I can’t wait as I know there will be lots of cute moments and without a doubt lots of laughter.  

Tracey and Leonard have been a couple for quite a few years but it shows because they are totally in sync with one another.  They are cute, playful and fun to be around!  Just absolutely perfect for one another!

Inga & Juan

This loved up couple flew to Dubai for a family wedding and decided that they would love to have a fun Dubai Desert couple shoot.

The Desert has the power of bringing out the inner child in yourself.  Somehow, the feeling of sand between your toes and wind in your hair and the sun beating down on your head creates the feeling of freedom!

Inga and Juan live and work in London.  Juan is originally from South Africa and Inga is from Lithuania.

They met in London 12 years ago and have been together ever since.

This Dubai family were an assortment of relatives and it was quite precious.   It was the girls Mother-in-laws 60th birthday and for this reason, Chiara and Elana decided to do a photoshoot of their children celebrating the special occasion.

Chiara and Elana are sister-in-laws who are married to two brothers.  They were a bit stomped as to what to buy their mother-in-law for her birthday.  Most women tend to have everything they need by the time they get to 60.  What most women learn by the time they get to 60 is that family is the most precious thing.

The best gift these wonderful daughter-in-laws could get their mother-in-law was a photoshoot of her precious grandchildren.  The girls went to lots of effort to make sure her Dubai family celebrated with her.  In addition there were balloons, hats and banners  and even unwrapping of gifts so that the children could get into the celebrating mood.

Above all else, the children were absolutely cute.  The mommies were lovely and Chiara’s visiting parents from Italy were very gracious. Moreover, the children seemed to have had fun and enjoyed the festivities.

I was fortunate enough to be able to do this gorgeous young couples’ family photography when Troy was just five weeks old.  Sarah-Jane is the tiniest, most petite little blonde ….I almost fell over when I heard Troy had been 4,4kgs at birth ….and even looking at her husband, Bruce, its hard to believe where this bonny boy came from.  But the beauty of having a big baby is that they are easier to handle …and Troy was so strong in holding his head up ….pretty amazing really.  I must just say …how lovely it is to see a young couple working as a team at parenting.  Their nursery was also a beautiful marriage between a designer and an engineer …..obviously Sarah-Jane has some amazing ideas and Bruce helps her bring it all together!  Their wood cladded wall worked as a perfect backdrop for some of the photos ….couldnt  have asked for anything better as a backdrop!
