Ada

Boy oh boy has this year been a funny ol’ year! In between Regional Victoria’s two lockdowns I was blessed to be able to capture little Ada’s portrait. This gorgeous wee 10 month old girl really had my work cut out for me. Ada was just transitioning from crawling to walking so she was well and truly on the move. It was all hands on deck from both mum, Amy & dad, Daniel trying to keep this little poppet reasonably still and in the one place long enough for me to get the shots. I’m so pleased with the end result, but most importantly, so were mum and dad :)

I’m often asked by parents - when is the best time to take their baby’s portrait? It’s very hard to pin point when the “perfect time” is to photograph little tackers in their first year… but I guess I tend to find photographing babies when they are comfortably sitting but not yet crawling would be the most ideal time as they generally can’t get very far, if any, quickly. But this doesn’t mean to say children can’t be photographed at any time because they can… it just be that little bit more challenging, and that’s ok! Some parents like to book in as close to age “one” as possible so they have a record of that mighty milestone. So really, the best time is when you want to have your child photographed - so there really is not right or wrong. As long as they have slept, fed well and you have plenty of snacks on hand.

Here are some of the gorgeous shots taken of little Ada during her session.
