I’m so happy he’s one of my Baby’s First Year clients, especially after seeing his mama posting beautiful photos of him growing up on Facebook. I really couldn’t wait to photograph him again!

Now he’s 7 months old… sitting up… and being as cute and adorable as can be! :-)

I loved how happy and excited he was when one of his favourite toys made an appearance :-)

…and then he found the tag and I just adored the look of concentration on his face (and those gorgeous long eyelashes!)

Adrian loved giving his mama open mouth baby kisses too, so sweet :-)

A quick outfit change and one last sneak peek..

Are you smiling? I sure am! Hope you enjoyed the peek! :-)

I couldn’t wait to meet Alena, one of my newest clients. She was just 9 days new when I travelled to Amsterdam to photograph her and her beautiful family.

Isn’t she just GORGEOUS!

and those teeny tiny toes… *love*

Once we had her sleeping, she slept sooooo soundly :)

She’s so beautiful… *ahhh* :)

Let me share a couple of her big sister too, meet Sophie.

Sophie was all smiles when she was inside one of my baskets…also known as “the boat”. She loved it when Daddy spun her around in it ;)

And just one more of Alena, because I can’t resist ;)

Hope you enjoyed the peek!

and underneath the wrapping…

I lifted the lid….and WOW – I was hit smack in the face with the most delicious smells!!! absolutely mouth-watering!

Oooooh which one to try first… they all look so good! and I am *loving* their names! :-)

mmm Gingerbread Sweet & Spicy.. mmm Pumpkin Holy Moly… mmm Avocado Blimey… mmm Strawberry Shortbread….

Nearly 100% organic and all incredibly delicious, I found two unexpected favourites… the Cranberry Orange WTF and the Lemon Lekkerding – so packed full of flavour! YUM!

My husband is going to have to fight me for the rest! Though, truth be told…he already told me he’s expecting an empty box by the time he comes home from work… I’m trying to save him a Chewy Chocolate Whoa-Baby, and maybe a Chocolate Chip OMG too… maybe… ;-)

I.am.in.food.heaven.

Thank you, Katie!!

Visit Katie’s Cookies and order some for yourself or for a friend! I assure you, you will certainly not be disappointed!! They are DELICIOUS!

Having endured several days of stormy winds, there weren’t so many leaves left on the trees, but the floor was a sea of gold. So beautiful!

Finding shelter from the rain…

They were an absolute delight to photograph!

:-)

And when we were done, it was (finally!) time to climb trees… ;-)

Hope you enjoyed the sneak peek. Have a lovely weekend everyone!

Best wishes,

Welcome to the world Dexter! :)

A wonderfully adorable little brother for a delightful big sister!

I just want to *kiss* those gorgeous cheeks of his! Sweet dreams little one..

It was lovely to receive his birth announcement in the post too! :-)

Designed by Jolette of Mamamila with photography by Tigs Creations! We just recently started working together. Her designs and cards are simply gorgeous and I’m so happy to offer her services to my clients!

Hope you enjoyed the peek…

Meet the very beautiful, very curious and very playful Ianthe..

She loved to play, and would quickly run and jump, all the while keeping a keen eye on her toys!

Zeno, the male and the oldest of the three, was really quite a lot bigger than the two females. Curled up in his cosy basket, his size wasn’t so obvious at first; but when he leaped up for the cat toy I got quite a surprise!

And then I saw Alegria..

I was a little worried that shy and anxious Alegria would hide away whilst I was there, but no, here she is… She was clearly a little anxious at first, but with a little patience, and perhaps some curiosity from Alegria, she did show her pretty face :)

She’s beautiful! :)

I can’t resist sharing a couple more photos of Ianthe..

Ianthe was quite content with my presence and took every possible opportunity to pose for me ;)

They were really an absolute delight to photograph, I hope you enjoyed the sneak peek!

Have a wonderful week :)

Best wishes,
~Natalie

Introducing Cas…

His little game began a nano-second after I took the photo above (also the very first photo I took at his newborn session and the only one in this pose) – with his hand held up to his face like that, he looks like he’s planning it too, so funny!

*Hello cutie*

He’s absolutely gorgeous, and utterly adorable! Don’t you think?

Ssssshhhh… baby dreaming :-)

Ahhhh total sweetness! *love*

Hope you enjoyed the sneak peek :-)

Have a fabulous Friday everyone, and a great weekend!

Best wishes,
~Natalie

So… will it be a boy? or a girl? I can’t wait to hear!

And this gorgeous little one is going to be a fabulous big sister!!

Isn’t she adorable?! :-)

Such a beautiful family of 3, waiting to be a family of 4. I’m so excited for them! :-)

Hope you enjoyed the sneak peek!

Isabelle is a beautiful big sister, isn’t she gorgeous? And little George, just 10 days new, was an absolute star!

He was such a ‘curly’ little baby, and he slept beautifully for me too :-)

*smile*

I think the one above is a clear favourite of mine, each time I see it I want to reach out and snuggle with him! ;-)

And for the last image in the sneak peek, a special outfit for George and a look at those baby blues!

Oh George, you. are. gorgeous! *ahhh* :-)

Hope you enjoyed the sneak peek!

Best wishes,
~Natalie
