From birth to 7 years in 16 photography sessions

Without a doubt, the most rewarding part of my job is watching the tiny babies that I photograph grow up and turn into their own little characters and getting to capture these gorgeous memories.

I often see babies come back for their first birthday, and some families continue their journey with me long that, so to the families that have chosen me to capture their story time and time again I am forever grateful, this is my ultimate reward.

One particular little client has recently been to me for his 16th photography session, and he is only 8 years old! I wanted to share some of his beautiful memories with you all from his photography sessions over the past 8 years. He has had every sort of session that I offer from newborn to family to all the special ones in-between; daffodils, bluebells and even his watermelon smash (which I used to offer before I started doing cake smashes) for his 1st birthday.

I first met him back in 2017 for his new born photography session after meeting his parents at a baby event that I attended in Upton just beforehand when they were expecting him.

Later on that year he was my first ever outdoor Christmas baby! 
2017 was my first year of offering outdoor Christmas mini sessions, which I still offer now along with my ever popular Christmas mini sessions in the studio.

In 2018 he came came for a bluebell photography session. Bluebell photo sessions in Dorset are my most popular outdoor sessions.  I do mini sessions in evenings in April/May.

Shortly after the bluebells was his first birthday session. I was so excited that his Mum chose my signature watermelon smash session to celebrate.
​I used to offer outdoor watermelon smash sessions before I introduced cake smashes back in 2022.

I was lucky enough to see him again for a third time in 2018 for his Christmas photography session.

Our next session was in Spring 2019 , when I started offering special Daffodil mini photography sessions. 

Shortly after that we met again at the Bluebells.

In the summer of 2019 he turned 2 and we celebrated with a family photography session at Sandbanks beach, my favourite outdoor location in Dorset.

We met for a 4th time in 2019 for his third Christmas photography session.

in 2020 Covid got in our way of so many things and we almost missed out entirely this year! But we just managed to get a mini session in just before Christmas, yay! 

In 2021 we managed to get a bluebell session in and then again a Christmas one.
I can't believe he is now at school!

In 2022 we met at the daffodils again. We enjoyed playing in the flowers and getting some more up to date precious memories.

In December 2022 we met at Wareham forest again for our annual Christmas photography session. I can't believe how much he has grown since we last met in the Spring!

In October 2023 he came to my studio for the first time for his annual Christmas photography session.
​We had lots of fun!

In December 2024 I got to see him again in the studio for his Christmas session.
We had so much fun, and he told me all about how he was looking forward to it and that he loves our photoshoots together!

Here is to capturing many more adventures as you grow! I can't wait for our next session together whenever that may be.
