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

Belly to bub, the changes are amazing. You find yourself looking at a newborn in amazement thinking, he was inside that belly only 2 weeks ago. The entire pregnancy and birth process is just amazing !

Summer had belly photos done at 38 weeks. She looked totally gorgeous.

I’d like to introduce you to baby Chase. He is one of the most cruisy babies I have ever had in. He was very content to be poked, prodded, hung and moved around all over the place. He has the most perfect skin. I have told Mum so many times how gorgeous is skin is. Not one mark, pure perfect. He just grabs me every time he comes in and I can’t wait to watch him grow.

Bellies and bubs are overtaking the studio at the moment and I love every minute!

Pregnancy shoots are very individual. Some like outdoor candid shots others like outdoor art. Some like studio shots with a little bit of belly showing through, others have no problem doing tasteful nudes to show that gorgeous shape.  Everyone is different and there is no right or wrong. I love photographing bellies no matter which way Mum likes as it is always a chance to capture that moment in time. It is a time when a woman glows, a really special glow capped off with an amazing feminine shape. I love pregnancy because to me it is when women show how amazing we really are. Our bodies can grow, adapt, change and create. It really is a magical time.

Tiffany has allowed me to share some of her pregnancy shots with you. She looked amazing at the end of her pregnancy. She wanted to share this moment with her husband and daughter and I think they are the most gorgeous family, enhanced even more now that their little girl has entered the world.

This was an extra special shoot.

Rach did her traineeship with us five years ago. I cannot believe time has gone that fast !

It is always amazing when you get the right staff mix. Rach is one of those people who holds a special place in our hearts and was absolutely perfect. She knew me so well, knew what I wanted without having to say anything and we even had numerous non-work social events.

It is great to see her so happily married and now expecting her first bub. Even though she is in Brisbane, she always makes a point of catching up when she is home and this time we had an extra special catch up with a photo shoot.

How good does she look. Pregnancy totally agrees with her. Thanks for catching up Rach and spending the time at the studio. I had a great time and you were so natural. I cannot wait to meet your little girl. If only we lived closer !! xo

My new favourite newborn pics !!

I just love this little doll. She slept like a dream. Posed perfectly. And was just the complete bundle.

A sneak peek for Mum and Dad. They are coming in tomorrow to look at them all and I have told them it is going to be hard to pick a favourite. I can’t decide which is my favourite so I know they are going to have trouble.

See you tomorrow.

I just cannot resist. I photographed the most content newborn I have had in the studio today. She was really happy to be poked and prodded, curled and moved. I had the best time.

Meet Tyler. She is a cute 3 and a half weeks new. She gave me the cutest grunt when I moved her but then snuggled in, closed her eyes and went soundly back to sleep. Simply perfect.

There will be more to come from this shoot. I just couldn’t help pulling out a few favs to show off today. Enjoy Tammy, we have so many great shots !
