Do you prefer studio, or outdoor family sessions??

Blessed to photograph this stunning family 😍 how lucky this bubby is to come into the world with big brother and sisters ready to love on their new little sibling!
Sunset sessions are some of my absolute favourites, those colours 😍😍

Honestly, parenthood is HARD. If you’re in the thick of it right now, know I’m right there with you. Making the time for normal things, like washing my hair, seems like an impossible task at the moment. But I know that this is just a season, eventually I’ll have more free time than I can shake a stick at (if this is a long way away, or simply not true, seasoned parents, please don’t burst my bubble 🤣).
Got any great tips for the parenthood struggle/juggle, time management skills with small children (what are those?!)? Send them my way!!

An apology and a thank you!
This year, since returning from maternity leave, I haven’t been showing up for my business the way I want to, and expect myself to as a business owner.I’ve only been taking on limited sessions, and not posting to my website or socials nearly as much as I would like. I know it may even appear like I’m not working at all.Truth be told, having a second child was so much more full on than I anticipated, and getting back on the horse, work wise, has been much, much harder. Add in my back injury and its been a lot.This time around, I am so concious of not missing a moment with her, that all these ‘firsts’ are also ‘lasts’ as we are not having any more children.So my focus has been on my kids, and not on my business, and I am trying to strike that precarious balance between the two.So I just wanted to say a huge sorry, and a thank you for bearing with me. My business means the world to me, and I’m committed to getting back to the standard of showing up that I expect of myself, and for my clients. This conciousness of my daughters firsts/lasts, just makes me even more determined to capture these precious memories for my clients!I’m getting back on the horse, some changes are coming to my business, and I can’t wait to come back, stronger than ever, and capture these moments of joy. ❤️ Ellie

Another gorgeous sibling shot 😍 What’s your preference, colour or black and white? I’m a sucker for black and white at the moment, but can never seem to decide!!
