Outdoor Maternity shoot

Well we weren’t sure this session was going to go ahead with the way the weather was behaving! Sometimes us outdoor photographers need to be part meteorologist reading the weather radar and checking the forecast hours before a session 😂 We decided to go for it and what do you know the weather held out just in time for us to get a whole maternity shoot done before it started raining again.

When Rhiannon booked her outdoor maternity shoot with me she was very clear she wanted it to be natural, nothing overly posed and just a focus on them as a family enjoying these moments before they become a family of four and before Micah becomes a big sister.

This hit me in the heart, I totally remember these feelings before William was welcomed into our family. Those mixed emotions of excitement and also #mumguilt knowing that you won’t have as much time with your firstborn as you do now, that you won’t have the days of ‘just the two of you’ anymore.

So when Rhiannon booked with me I had her fill out a questionnaire of all the things she wanted to capture as well as beach or bush location and she chose bush. I was so happy because natural/australian bush is my jam, as much as I love shooting at the beach I LOVE this location., it always has something different to offer at different times of year.

Gorgeous little Micah was such a cheeky girl. At the beginning she was running away from us and I tried to grab her attention but bribing her with some wild flowers, little did I know that this is her favourite thing to do! Before we knew it by the end of the session she had created the most beautiful bouquet of flowers from our session - I think future florist in the making! Check out the photos to see if you can spot her gorgeous bunch.

Central Coast Photographer, PiP Family Mini session

Michelle contacted me to take advantage of my Playing in Puddles offer (still available!) to get some updated photos of her family.

Nathan + Adam are like chalk and cheese when it comes to their personalities but they’re both equally cheeky! We had a lot of fun at this location and enjoyed the sunshine.

Michelle’s review is at the end :)

“‘Ginny is so lovely to deal with and took some amazing photos of our family! She made us all comfortable straight away during our session and did an awesome job getting beautiful photos while easily managing our 2 boys who were in very high spirits.’”

Extended Family Shoot

When Cara contacted me to do her family’s photos I knew it was going to be fun! I had an outdoor maternity session with Cara and her boys back in feb last year and her twins made me work for it (they’re the pure definition of double trouble 😂) but it was so much fun and I honestly loved their cheekiness. When the time came for Olivers cake smash, the twins were their usual cheeky selves nearly tucking into the cake before Oliver even had a chance 😂.

I love big family shoots, I know as a photographer it can be a little bit more difficult dealing with more people than usual but i really loved it, and I love that these photos will be cherished in the years to come. Coming from a large extended family I knew how cherished these images will be, but I also wanted to make sure we actually had fun so the smiles were genuine 😉

There is SO much to remember when it comes to these shoots, and I love them! Being the youngest in my family I’m used to my family dynamic and getting attention when needed (I’m pretty loud on the best of days) so that part is totally fine. But it’s the intricate nature of larger families, the partners who have married into the family, the sisters, the grandparents, the cousins, the aunties, the siblings, the parents - theres a lot of special relationships in there that NEED to be captured authentically and while I love posed shot, it’s all the little moments in between that really make you smile when looking at these images.

Happy Viewing!
