Breastfeeding Mum's

I thought I would share this wonderful organisation, providing invaluable support to breastfeeding Mum's, especially those struggling. To find out more information contact F.A.B. http://www.familiesandbabies.org.uk/suffolk/

Ipswich baby and newborn photographer

This little girl came to visit me with her Mummy, Daddy and big brother. She is a rainbow baby, and her family had given up hope after losing 8 babies, so this little girl is very treasured and very loved. She slept like a dream and her family dote on her. 
If you are looking for baby photography it is best done at under 14 days, whilst baby is still able to curl into the beautiful womblike poses. I live in Sudbury, Suffolk, but am within easy reach of Colchester, Chelmsford, Bury St Edmunds, Ipswich, Clacton, Cambridge and London is about an hours drive.

Safe newborn photography

Safe newborn photography must be a priority to see more of my work click here.
I am now an approved member of BANPAS, photographers are not regulated in our Country so it is down to individual photographers to ensure they are safe and insured, by joining BANPAS I believe is the only way to move forward, all too often photographers see unsafe practices involving newborns, whilst this may look cute and fairly easy, it is actually hard to master certain poses. Babies can jerk even in a laying position. I know fellow photographers that make all the excuses in the world why they haven't got insurance, I have gone without to set my newborn business up properly, I had insurance from the word go, and I know there are MANY other likeminded photographers across the Country and in this area who are devoted to baby safety. Sometimes you may save £50 or more by going to someone cheap but you have to ask yourself, is it worth the risk?

Hailstones!

I had been itching to make time to do a shoot with my littlest kiddo, and the light was just amazing, so with £5 in my pocket  as bribery and a school disco ticket, we headed to some rather muddy fields an were engulfed in a hailstone storm. It seems increasing the blackmail to £10 and a disco ticket didn't inspire a smile either, and I didn't get the shot in my head, but I kinda like this. And one day (just maybe), she will love our mad adventures out in the mud and bad weather with a smile on her face! My little mad helper!
