Two brothers: family photography in Dunedin

November 17, 2009 // Portraits

This was my first official photoshoot in Dunedin after having my baby, and it turned out I was photographing a baby boy (Rhys) 1 day older than him! (luckily Elmer didn't know that - he's probably sick of the camera anyway)..

Rhys's brother Charlie is 18 months old and such a smiler, making my job super easy. We had such a good time playing he cried when I left! I've been telling everyone that ever since :)

Some of my favourites:

Steven. The Husband:

I'd just like to say that those hands of mine have never had a manicure. Might be about time if they're going to feature in anymore close-ups. What a state. Oh it's cos i've been building, that and they were run over by a tractor

Baby Elmer, 18 days old!

October 19, 2009 // Personal

What was that I was saying about not clogging my blog with baby photographs? Ahem...turns out I was lying, sorry! More to the point, I have a photo-blog, and with a gorgeous newborn baby around I don't seem to be photographing anything else at the moment.

Two and a half weeks seems to have flown by, Elmer is getting fatter by the day. Last week I thought "Ahh, I must photograph Elmer in that cute stripey outfit of his".. only to discover he has already grown out of it! I have an uneasy feeling I'm going to wake up from a nap and be the mother of an angry 16 year old. Better make the most of these cute baby days!

A selection from the last week or so then... Here is my son, 6 days old:

10 days old....

12 days old...

Baby in a basket - I couldn't resist!!!

And finally today, 18 days old... (these last few were taken with my gorgeous 50mm lens which I just got back from canon servicing after 6 weeks. Its my new favourite lens again)

I won't go on about how gorgeous he is because you can see for yourselves. And whilst he is still asleep on the sofa.. I should go and do something outrageous like eat an entire meal in one go.. woohoo!

Baby Elmer

October 9, 2009 // Personal

Here he is! Our little boy was born a week ago today, but I've been too busy staring at him all week to post any images on my blog. We named him Elmer Bruce Jenkins (Bruce after Steven's late father), he was 8lb 2oz, and is definitely the most beautiful baby I have ever laid eyes on. No photographs of him awake yet because he is either asleep... or eating. I'm planning a little photoshoot in a day or two so I hope to get some very cute images then. In the meantime, here is Elmer, asleep.. in a couple of different locations....

I imagine... ahem.... I may be taking a few more photographs of Elmer in the coming days and weeks, but promise to try not to clog the blog with them. Normal service should resume in the coming weeks. Suffice to say, we are completely and utterly in love with our new baby and can't believe how lucky we are :)

Sinead he is gorgeous and I have to say it is not down to your amazing photography skills - almost makes me broody (but not quite!). Big congratulations to both of you - all three of you actually. Elmer is the image of his Dad!

Gorgeous! I can't imagine anyone minding if your blog was full of Elmer photos! Not only is he a beutiful baby, but your photos are amazing and really put the photos we have of our children to shame. Your blog is doing a good job of convincing me I should get you to try and take some photos of our kids when we are next in Dunedin?
