The Littlest Heroes Project – spread the word!
Have you heard of the Littlest Heroes Project? This wonderful non-profit organisation is made up of professional photographers worldwide that have come together to help give back and capture miracles through the beauty of photography. These photographers provide our littlest heroes (children who suffer from any type of serious illness or life altering disability) with a complimentary photo session and a selection of photos.
The Littlest Heroes Project is an effort to open the eyes of the world to a part of it that so many ignore or pretend (or don’t even realise) exists. The idea is to capture some special memories for families that are dealing with hectic schedules due to their child’s battle with disease and sickness; things like getting photos taken is sometimes a huge challenge and is one of the last things these families are thinking about.
Reading the stories and seeing photos of these very special children really touched my heart and I knew immediately it was something I wanted to be a part of and I applied to join their team of photographers. I’m so proud to be a part of this Project. It’s such an amazing gift to be able to give these families.
If you have a child, or know a child, who suffers from any type of serious illness or life altering disability, please do get in touch or visit the Littlest Heroes Project website at: www.littlestheroesproject.org. I would love to capture some very special moments of your littlest hero, for you to treasure always.

a sneak peek for Julie!
The New Year is fast approaching and I’ve been hearing fireworks going off all day… I really hope the fog clears a bit more so that we can see all the fireworks at the strike of midnight (the Dutch go C-R-A-Z-Y with New Year fireworks, I kid you not!) We’re lucky to have a view over the rooftops and usually we can see fireworks from all over The Hague which is great… of course, that only works on a clear night, and with all the fireworks going off too, it’s going to get incredibly foggy over here!
Well onto the sneak peek that I know Julie’s been so patiently waiting for! Just before Christmas we had a GREAT session creating some beautiful lifestyle portraits and studio portraits, and we were all over the house with my lights and backdrops! Julie, you are going to love your gallery once it’s all finished! It was so hard to choose just a few photos, they are all so good! But here you are, a few ‘studio’ ones for your sneak peek….




I hope you enjoyed those Julie… can’t wait for you to see the rest….. I’m so excited for you!
I also have to say that is was soooooo good to walk into your home and see the huge canvas of your twins hanging above the fireplace. It looked fantastic! I love seeing my photos displayed in my clients homes :)
Have a great New Year everyone! Wishing you all the best for 2009!

Wishing you a wonderful Christmas
I can’t believe it’s Christmas Eve tomorrow! I need to start wrapping presents and planning Christmas Dinner!
This year has flown right by and I’d just like to say a huge THANK YOU to all my clients – you have made 2008 a wonderful and exciting year. I look forward to seeing you again and to meeting even more new families in 2009.
Wishing you all the very best for the festive season. Have a wonderful Christmas, and a very happy New Year.

Warmest wishes,
Natalie

sneak peek: a christmas angel
Remember this session? Frøya didn’t seem too happy during her 6-months portrait session so we cut the session short and I offered to reschedule. I’m glad we did, we had a lovely session in her home where she was much more relaxed and she was much happier this time too… now at 8-months she is still a super cutie and she had a lovely bright red Christmas outfit to wear too!





Till next time…

Lisa & Nikki
During my last trip the the UK I had the opportunity to photograph Lisa and Nikki at Arcphotos Studio in Preston where I also met several other photographers at their weekly club night. And since everyone at Arcphotos are enjoying their Christmas Party today I thought I’d dedicate this post to them, since I can’t be there to celebrate with them in person… *hope you’re all having a great party* :-)
So first, here’s Lisa (with a slight cross-processed treatment for this first one):


And Nikki:


And a couple more of Lisa:


Thanks Lisa and Nikki, you were great to work with. Hope to see you again soon! :-)

A Christmas Prize Draw Winner!
With thanks to Erika at Both Assistance and Support I was not only introduced to CONNECTing Women (a network for professional and internationally aware women, based in The Hague) but I also had a table at their December meeting which was a Festive Network Bazaar.
It was a great evening, and a wonderful opportunity to meet the members, buy Christmas gifts and find out a bit about each of the businesses that had a table there.
And on my table… which was overflowing with photographs… I held a special Christmas Prize Draw to win a portrait session with tigs creations photography. And the winner….
Many congratulations to Santina Hovanessian! You’ve won a portrait session in your home, or at a location of your choice for lifestyle or studio portraits. This includes one to three hours of session time (including set-up and outfit changes), custom editing of each individual image and a 4 week private online gallery of 25-30 proofs. You will also receive two complimentary 13x19cm prints of your choice.
*look out for my email with more details*

Ooops! I didn’t know the background wall would be green! lol I totally chose the wrong colour jumper! haha!

‘Feel at Home’ Prize Draw Winner!
I can’t believe it’s almost December.. where did the year go?! Time is truly flying by and I’m working like crazy to get all my orders ready for Christmas…
Do you remember the prize draw I had at the Feel at Home in The Hague fair?
The winner of my Basic Portrait Package was Naira and we had a great session. I’m sure you will agree with me that she looks stunning, and her outfits were lovely, so bright and colourful!
Thanks Naira for a fun session… I had such a hard time choosing just a *few* for your sneak peak but here you are, I hope you enjoy them!




I hope you enjoyed your sneak peak!

The colours of Autumn…
Isn’t it great when the sun is shining… we’re coming to the end of autumn now but there are a few trees that still have their autumn leaves and when the sun’s rays catch.. ahh beautiful. I love autumn! A couple of weeks ago I met Anthea for some outdoor portraits in the Paleis and we were lucky that the weather was being very kind to us that morning, and there was plenty of autumn colour too!
Anthea, your full gallery is almost ready, but here’s a quick sneak peek for you :)

here’s one from the studio too:

Thanks for a great session Anthea, I hope you enjoyed your sneak peek!

Fashion with Laura Louise
I’ve been tackling my editing queue again today, so here’s a few more from a shoot I had with Laura Louise a while back…


And for the last photo, I couldn’t decide if I preferred the original colour version or the black and white conversion… so, I’ve left it for you to decide ;)


I hope you enjoyed them! :)
