PRINCESS IVY | IPSWICH NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHER | RACEVIEW PORTRAIT STUDIO

Meet Princess Ivy!!

I just love her name, her Mum and Dad kept her name a secret to be revealed when she entered the world, such a lovely idea and such a beautiful name.

I have lost count of the amount of times I have photographed for this family,  I love watching their babies grow, and meeting their new additions along the way, it's lovely to also keep in contact between sessions, on play dates, can't wait for the next one!!

SWEET BABY ALEXANDER | IPSWICH NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHER | RACEVIEW PORTRAIT STUDIO

Meet Alexander!!

I first met Tai and Darren from the Pregnancy Babies and Children's Expo, and finally got to meet their handsome little man for his newborn portraits some months later.  Here's precious little Alexander, from what I remember he was 4 weeks old at his session, but came into the world a little early, so still so sleepy for being a little older than I usually photograph.

Nothing sweeter than a sleeping baby!!  I could just sit and watch my baby sleep like this ALL.DAY.LONG

IPSWICH NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHER | RACEVIEW PORTRAIT STUDIO | SWEET LITTLE BABY GIRL

I recently made a house call to this gorgeous family who already have 2 year old twin boys.  It would have been such a handful for Vicky to make the trip with them all, so I kindly offered to have her very first newborn session at home.... The twin boys proved to be much more work than I anticipated, they were so excited to have their baby sister home, Vicky certainly has her work cut out for her.  Most of our newborn sessions take place at my home based studio located in Raceview, Ipswich, however, I am happy to travel to your home for your newborn session to make life easier on you.

IPSWICH NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHER | RACEVIEW STUDIO | MISS RAYA

I was so honoured to be asked to photograph Raya for her very first portrait session, only a few days after her grand entrance into the world....Little Raya is the fourth addition to the Besgrove Family.....I'm told fourth and last :)  She was so delightful to photograph, such an easy baby to get into poses and stay sleeping, which is a rare thing.  Watching families grow is one of the best parts of my job, and helping them introduce their pride and joy to world gives me great pleasure.....Enjoy her sneak peek.

IPSWICH NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHER | RACEVIEW STUDIO | MASTER BRAXTON

Braxton's mummy began planning his newborn session in the early days of her pregnancy, so needless to say that while the anticipation for them to meet their precious little boy was beyond words, I also was eagerly awaiting his arrival and could not wait to meet him.  He is known by the family as the little miracle baby.  He is such a handsome little man  and has his mummy and daddy lost for words.

PREGNANCY BABIES AND CHILDREN'S EXPO | IPSWICH PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHER

For many years, it had been one of my goals to attend and exhibit at a major Expo.  This year the opportunity arose to exhibit at the Brisbane Pregnancy Babies and Children's Expo, and I grabbed it.  A place had become available, and with only three weeks to prepare, we just knew we had to make it happen.  Make it happen, we did.  

Dan and I got straight into planning what we needed, what the display would look like, what Maternity and Newborn images we would display, we measured out the size of the stall in the dining room and planned out where everything would go.  

We were very excited.  With all the planning, surely nothing could go wrong??? Well.....there were only a couple of "hitches" like not having the right screws to put the cot together, and misspelling of our business name on the banner, nothing team Sam I am couldn't handle.  

Our attendance at the expo was a huge success.  All the nerves, hard work and lack of sleep was absolutely worth it in the end.
