Back in December I did a baby photo session of then four-week old Bjørn. That sunny Sunday reached 39°C in the afternoon … and little Bjørn was a hot baby and hot babies tend to be a little cranky. I got loads of lovely pictures of Bjørn but they were largely split into two groups … peacefully asleep or grumpy
Now, I do know that parents love pictures of their children looking happy and smiley so I undertook to do a second session to capture some of the said happy and smiley pictures. Fast forward through the 4-week blur that is Christmas, travel, new year et al and little Bjørn is not so little now … well ok he’s still pretty little … just not quite so little … anyways on with the pictures! 🙂
We met up at the Botanic Gardens on a Sunday morning and I foolishly wore a white shirt and as I lay on the damp dewy grass in amongst the wallaby poo … this became apparent … this foolishness. My shirt looked as though it bore external witness to a coffee drinking problem … which is quite untrue … like really.
Really great images Geoffrey. The quirky family shot using the sunnies is a ripper one!
White t shirt.. tsk, tsk.
Thanks Al 🙂
White cotton long sleeve shirt as it happens… saved by the Sard Wonder Stick 🙂
Hello there 🙂 I’m trying to be a little less lazy about comments left elsewhere and maybe the new pictures of little Bjørn just did the trick. Had to laugh out loud at the part about on the ground between the wallaby poo. Hehe. The first (or actually the last shot) where he’s wearing the hood is my absolute favourite, partly because of the red and the blue, but he looks so curious of life in this one. This reminds me that I still have to do a baby shoot for a friend, just heard the little girl already makes attempts to walk so I better hurry 🙂
Well, hello 🙂
The wallaby poo came out in the wash thankfully… he’s a pretty cute baby and I agree he looks so very curious on the red and blue picture. Beginning to walk? You’d best get a move on or you’ll be doing a toddler shoot instead 😉
