About Me Hi and welcome to my Blog!  Here I will post sneak previews of recent photo sessions, including newborn photos, baby photos, and some older childrens' photos. Some personal bits, my random musings and also keep you posted on what is happening in my world. I am based in in Hampshire, a lovely country location, about an hour from most parts of London. I would really love it if you took the time to leave a comment if you see something you like. Please take your time and explore, there are pages and pages of previous sessions, which include photos of some gorgeous babies, and older children. And hopefully, we will meet soon...Much love, Maria
My afternoon ended with 2 cheeky little rascals - Hayden & big brother Ethan. I met the boys and mummy at Bedfords Park. It had just started raining , but it wasn't to bad, so the boys had a quick runabout. Ethan, being older, was cool, calm & collected , whilst Hayden had great fun simply running off whenever the camera was pointed in his direction! Still we got some lovely shots and here is a preview.

This morning I had a bit of a change of scenery - I went to King George's Park in Brentwood. I met Mia with mummy and daddy by the lovely flowerbeds and used the flowers to five some of the images are more hazy, romantic feel as per mummy's request.I last saw Mia when she was a tiny newborn, and she has changed so much. She is a beautiful, smiley & content little girl, and it was a pleasure to photograph the family again.

Last week I took some shots of Georgina which I have been dying to blog , but It's been so busy I have barely had time to take a breathe. Georgina is stunning and photographs beautifully, just a natural in front of the camera. Here are a few favorites from the session...I just love the warmth. All done with natural light, a reflector, in Bedfords park. People always ask if I photograph older children and teenagers - the answer is yes...

Today I had a great shoot and met Poppy, her mummy and daddy and also nanny and granddad. Poppy was a little sweetie, and as she warmed up ( which didn't take long) she got more and more smiley! In fact once she started she was full of smiles, which was really lovely to see - such a content little girl. I shot mostly in the garden but we also did a few bits indoors to get the studio effect. Mummy and daddy, as promised here is an extra large sneak preview as it will be a while before you are able to view the full set. I hope you like what you see!

My first session today was with Sukirat and mummy and daddy. We went over to South Weald Country Park but in the opposite direction to where I would normally go, as I wanted to see if I could find something new. We took some great piccies in the bird hide and found those lovely tall grasses. When I got home, my hay fever was off the scale after rolling around on the floor...but it was worth it. Sukirat was as always, a pleasure. Not only she is mega pretty but also mega smiley, so I had an easy ride!

Such a peaceful image and I love how the gold from her bangle matches beautifully with the colour of the straw in this field.
