A day with Allegra {Sydney Children’s Photographer}

admin — Tue, 15 Jun 2010 04:26:50 +0000

When Kate first contacted me to ask me to do a “Day in the Life” session with her little girl, Allegra, I was excited. This is something I had been wanting to try for a while but had never had a client request it before. Not only that, Kate spoke such beautiful words about how much she values photography and wants to capture every moment as Allegra is growing up so quickly. Here was a woman after my own heart! Kate wanted to capture all of Allegra’s daily activities and favourites things to do including dancing, talking on the phone, trying on shoes, taking a bubble bath, eating and playing outside. So with the help of Kate’s magnificent supply of gorgeous outfits for Allegra and her fabulous attention to detail, we did just that. These images are going to be used by Kate to create a special surprise for her husband’s upcoming birthday. She assures me he doesn’t spend his time looking at photography blogs so it was ok to post some of the images here!

Allegra has such a sweet personality, she was so much fun and full of energy. This is a big sneak peek as I spent most of the day with her…..

Kate, thank you so much for asking me to do document this stage in Allegra’s life!

How much I love you.
Please don’t take my sunshine away……

I’m Back! {Sydney Children’s Photographer}

I have been a very bad blogger of late as things have been a bit crazy in the Ayling household. We put our house on the market which was a very stressful time of last minute repairs, gardening, de-cluttering & cleaning. We had so many people looking through the home it was hard for me to get any work done! In any case, I hope to now start catching up on some blogging. I have just finished editing this families’ images and I just loved so many of them I thought I would put a few more faves up….

The kids went back to school today so now it is time to catch up on some work! This session was held on a very hot day where temperatures reached 43 degrees in parts of Sydney. Fortunately are our session was held by the water with a lovely sea breeze so we managed just fine. Meet James & his little sister Ruby, aren’t they gorgeous?

Leah & John, it was lovely to meet you. Enjoy your sneak peek and I will be in touch shortly when I have your gallery ready.

A Beautiful Family {Sydney Children’s Photographer}

I spent a lovely afternoon in the company of this beautiful family on the weekend. Alannah is a very sweet little girl and I loved getting to know her. After spending time with her parents, I can tell where she gets her personality from as they are two of the warmest, friendliest and most relaxed clients I have ever had!

Alannah kept herself very busy, blowing kisses, playing with rose petals & hanging out with Mum & Dad.

And I just had to get some shots of this beautiful couple….

Leonie & Simon, thank you for choosing me to capture these memories for you. Looking at your images puts a big smile on my face Enjoy your sneak peek and I will be in touch shortly when your full gallery is ready.

I am a bit behind with my blogging as I have been busy catching up on some client orders. Here are some shots I took of baby Oliver recently. This little man has the whole package – good looks, big dreamy eyes, a beautiful smile and a very easy going personality! And, how cool is he in his bandanna? Sometimes this job makes me so clucky

I have been doing a bit of experimenting with my new lens. I love this creamy, buttery background I can get with it
