Colby, Jeffrey and Jalen

Colby has a real love of photography, though her husband, Jeffrey, syas it is much more of an obsession. She always has her camera ready to go so that she can capture every precious moment in baby Jalen's life. She refuses to miss a single moment or milestone as she knows it will only happen once. However, this means that she is always the one behind the camera and, like me, never in any of the photos. So she decided to book a family photo shoot to make sure Jalen has memories of her with him as well. 

You may recognise Jalen's mummy and daddy from when he was a newborn but it was definitely time for some updated photos.

Jalen has such an amazing smile but in order to capture it with a camera, Colby has learned that she has to run around and capture those candid moments when he is having fun and grinning from ear to ear, for as soon as she tries to get him to pose, that darling smile disappears. For this reason, Colby told me she decided to go with me to take the photos and I was flattered when she told me she believed I had the ability to capture those special candid moments she so loves.

Jalen was definitely a very busy boy who did not do sitting still so a traditional shoot was out of the question. But we did lots of fun things in the Botanical Gardens from looking for fish to g-forces to chasing bubbles. It was an afternoon of fun that Colby was able to enjoy with her beloved boys.

Thanks to the three of you for a fun shoot. I adore the Botanical Gardens and love that you brought along a few props that always bring a smile to Jalen's face. It was the perfect spot for him to run around freely and capture all of you having a wonderful time as a family. So wonderful to see the kids grow up so thank you for coming back to me! xxx

Sam, Jessica & Zoe

Sam was keen to capture some memories of the family while they were visiting the island since they are not all living in Bermuda together just yet. His wife, Jessica, and daughter, Zoe, are still based overseas and so their times together are even more precious. The Botanical Gardens is such a beautiful spot and since Zoe adores trees, flowers and birds, it was the perfect location for the shoot. One of Zoe's favourite things to do in the mornings is to go for a walk in the park and to listen to the birds sing in the trees and watch them eat bugs and worms for breakfast.

Zoe and Jessica love to go to music class together and sing the Hello song. They adore listening to music and dancing together.

Zoe and Sam are both morning people so on their morning walks, Sam always gives Zoe flowers which she just loves.

Cats are Zoe's favourite animal (they just beat out dogs) so she was thrilled when one appeared in the sensory garden. She loves how soft and quiet they are and she adores petting and playing with them.

I was more than a little bit smitten with Zoe's hair - the combination of those darling curls in that heavenly colour just had me swooning the entire shoot.

Thank you all for a lovely shoot - I hope Zoe had the most wonderful second birthday and had loads of fun at her gym class party with all her friends! xxx
