This is Skii. She is a mum-in-waiting. Skii’s partner is Jake. He is also a dad-in-waiting. Skii is due to have their first baby very soon, hopefully very very soon :-) . She has allowed me to share her journey with you. From belly to an active one year old, I am going to document and share with you their baby. I am incredibly excited about everything that lies ahead. I am even more excited that I can show you just what I see, the beauty of life.

After each photo shoot I am going to share with you Skii’s experience. I hope you enjoy our journey. You will be able to see how her little bub grows from now. From belly, birth, newborn and all the first year you are going to be able to share in this little bundles life. I hope you are just as excited !!

An interview with Skii:

1. How many weeks were you had your photos taken?
36 weeks
2. What has your pregnancy been like?
I have been blessed with a very smooth pregnancy, very little morning sickness and no dramas as of yet (touch wood).
the whole 9 months has gone way too fast.
3. Do you know what sex the baby is or do you have a feeling?
We both decided we would like it to be a surprise so we didn’t find out.
However we do have a little feeling it may be a girl, we will find out soon enough I guess.
4.. What made you decide to have belly shots done?
I have always admired the work Nikki and Jason have done and why not have such an important and exciting time in ours lives documented so beautifully?
5. Was Jake excited about being photographed?
Of course, he definately doesn’t shy away from the camera!
and he really wanted to be a part of the shoot.
6. What sort of photos did you have in mind that you wanted? Did you want a particular style?
I mainly wanted something that would capture us at this stage in our lives and for it to be very natural.
I trusted Nikki’s ideas for the photo shoot and she didn’t let me down, they are perfect.
7. How did you find your photo shoot? What was the best part?
The photo shoot was great! Nikki and Jason made us both feel really comfortable. The location photo’s were awesome although the photos taken in the studio were amusing thanks to jakes cheeky sense of humour.
8. Now you have seen the finished product, what did you think?
They far exceeded our expectations. Cant wait to show our families.
9. Do you have a favourite shot?
I have many favourites but my particular favourite is the ones on the rug.
10. Do you recommend others to have pregnancy photos?
Definately, That 9 months goes way too fast and to have something to look back on in years to come is so worth it. No self taken “bump” shot will ever compare!
11. How long have you got to go?
1 week and 2 days, not that im counting!  =P
12. Have you got any advice to other mums to be?
Don’t focus so much on all the “not-so-nice”parts of pregnancy, instead enjoy all the good things it brings it will be all over before you know it.

Thankyou so much for sharing your pregnancy with us Skii. I cannot wait to be a part of his arrival into the world. xo

Gorgeous little Bailey. So happy, full of smiles and an absolutely handsome boy.

I can see how much he LOVES his Mummy and Daddy and I think they think he is pretty damn adorable too.

My name is Scarlett and these are my 9 month photos !!

I am such a little princess who has two big brothers who just love me to bits.  I am a real Mummy’s girl and love to play dress ups with her already.  I love to have pretties in my hair and just love looking at myself in the mirror.

I remember Imogen’s newborn shoot like it was yesterday. It was one that stands out from the rest as she was the first bub to road test the new studio. Her Mum and Dad never batted an eyelid at all the power tools and rubbish everywhere when they came in with their tiny newborn.

We were early into the renovations of the studio and the place was a absolute mess !! It didn’t stop them from bringing little Immy in and letting me  test the different lighting conditions, the new poses and begin my journey in a totally new way way of shooting. Her shots are still some of my favourites and a shoot I did last weekend requested some of their photos exactly the same as Imogen’s newborn ones.

Throughout the year, Imogen has developed personality. I have watched her reach her physical milestones of sitting, crawling and walking along with the development of her personality. She is the sweetest little princess and gives the biggest grins but like most girls, has that little bit of attitude sneaking in and I love it !! The character the bubs start to show is my favourite thing to capture and I know I have done just that over the 12 months.

I have to post one shot from my twin shoot this week. This is such an amazing photo for so many reasons to me. We are redesigning the studio with our new wall art and I am so glad I hadn’t placed the final order as one from this shoot is going on the wall guaranteed.

These girls are 3 months old. That is a major reason why this photo is so special. Newborns (birth to 2 weeks) are when you get these types of shots. After the 2 week mark, the chance of capturing this gets less but at 3 months it is usually impossible. When I attempted this shot, I actually said to Mum that I really didn’t think it was going to work but I wanted to try as I always push the limits to see what I can get from bubs. I am so glad she trusted me and let me do what was required and this is the result.

There are so many shots from this shoot that are favourites of mine but I had to tease and just post one. My real favourite is when Mum is involved in this pose. It really melts my heart. For that one, you will have to wait.

The images speak for themselves. This little girl is just perfect. She was so well behaved and as you can see we breezed through it.

This little one will make an appearance again as she has just started her Year In the Life. I can’t wait !!Thanks for coming down from Port Macquarie Mum and Dad. It was an honour to meet your little one.
