Little Miss L - 9 months

This little girl was ready and waiting for me with lots of happy smiles. It was my third shoot that weekend and fortunately there was lots of space for my studio gear. We had lots of fun playing with all my christmas props - especially the beads! I even stayed a little bit longer when our model got a little worn out to give a little bit of advice about DSLR's.











Little miss H - 4 months

After getting myself and all my equipment up the 4 flights of stairs, I was a little out of breath. It was all worth it though, there was even time for this little supermodel to take a nap in between shooting. It's a tough life :)

Twins and a toddler!

What can I say, twins and a toddler! This family gave me two firsts - my first twins and my first family with three children. Thank you Family K!

This lucky big sister has both a brother and a sister to play with as she gets older and I do think they will have lots of fun. Already at 4 months these twins have huge personalities and just loved rolling over onto each other and giggling. I certainly had fun playing with them throughout our session. :)

Here come the boys...

Another returning client; two very playful and energetic boys. Last time I don't think we did actually manage to get a piccie of these two both looking at the camera and smiling. This time was a little more successful now the youngest is a bit older. They are just too adorable.

It was also the first time I'd taken my new lighting gear to a clients house too. Verdict: It went well. In fact too well. At one point I ended up in front of the camera and the boys were busy taking pictures of me!

Looking forward to taking pictures of little boy number three when he arrives in a few months.

BCT Christmas Card shoots - Huge Success!

Just a great big huge thank you to everyone that booked and even to the one family that canceled (it was nice to finish up a little earlier on the last day, but sorry you didn't get your pictures!).

I must say that I was very nervous before the first shoot started
and I had spent the previous week with my head in Christmas Card clouds and thinking about very little else. I also think it is the most amount of time I've worked in 2 consecutive days since going on maternity leave. It was well worth it though and I hope you all thought so too.

I've purposely not posted the finished cards and only one image from most shoots so the actual christmas cards remain a surprise. There is an example of a finished card at the bottom though.

Enjoy the festive season everyone! xx

More Christmas Card Information

Good News! Sunday morning has been very popular and is all booked up, there are only a couple more slots available in the afternoon. Due to the interest in Sunday and nearly none on Monday, I am making the shoots Saturday and Sunday instead. Those with appointments booked on Monday will still have your session, just at my house instead.

I've had a few people ask me about more details as they weren't clear, so here they are:

The cost to BCT members is 150CHF, payable on the day of the shoot. For this, you get my creative expertise, use of my props and as per the Occasion Package 3 digital negatives, one of which will be the one you would use on your card. This digital negative may be a compilation of a number of other images. You also get to choose 2 other images that you like to keep in digital format also. All 3 images will be printed for you.
I will have my computer at the shoots and we will look at the images taken together during your allocated time slot and you will choose the ones you like. I will have specific templates ready for you to see what the finished card might look like. I will also have examples of cards I have printed from ifolor.ch and ones that I sent out last year to show you what you can do with your images.

Your package will be with you within a week, in good time for you to do with the images as you wish.

If you still want to book a session, please contact me soon.
