Dubai Wedding Photography Session

I had the pleasure to meet this lovely couple from Norway while they were here getting married at the Seamens church. I also ended up being a witness to their wedding which was very nice. The ceremony was short and lovely. I did not cry maybe because I was concentrating on photographing at the same time? I met the couple and their daughters a few days in advance at the Seamens church to go through our photography session, I also took a look around the area for good photography spots, to be honest there were not that many so I suggested that we start at the church then we all drive down to the beach and finish off the photography session there. Since they were in Dubai on holiday they loved that idea, there is nothing more than a beach that gives a photograph that holiday feeling. Don't you agree?
Enjoy!

It was very bright on the beach so I had a bit of help blocking out the sun :-) 
I just love photographs with people jumping, it definitively gives the photograph some life don't you think?

Dubai Beach Family Photography Session



I met this lovely Family one very early morning in Dubai. The weather is now starting to become comfortable for beach photography shoots. I must give lots of credit to these teens parents because even though it was so early they were so well behaved I mean they actually did what I asked. I told them to run at 07.00 in the morning on the beach and they did, I told them to jump and they did brilliant I wish all my family photography shoots were this easy we were done in no time du to the efficiency. I loved it!
If you want your Family Photography Session done before Christmas now is the time to book it weekends are filling up very fast as we speak.

Dubai Beach Photography Shoots


The weather is now finally getting nice and comfortable for outdoor photography shoots here in Dubai.
I can tell this by that my calendar is getting booked up quickly for outdoor Christmas Photography Shoots.
Beach shoots is on the top of everyones Christmas lists it seams this winter! :-)
I can say that the best hour to photograph on the beach is 07.00 in the morning so you and your family need an early start but it is well worth it because the light is so beatiful then.
The golden hour I believe is only 40 minutes long it is gone by the time it is 07.40
This photography shoot we started at 08.00 and that is a little bit too late. We did also go to a nearby park when the sun was just too high up in the sky.
When you photograph on the beach you need to be careful so that everyone does not squint too much and on all the photographs. That is why starting early before the sun gets too high and too strong is a good idea, you get that golden shimmer without any problems of your subjects squinting.
If find yourself out photographing later on during the day and cannot find any open shade one of my tips that I do sometimes is that I count to 3. Everyone have their eyes closed and on 3 they open them. This however does not work on small children :-)
Please give me a call for your Christmas Family Photography Shoot!
I still have available timings.

Hope to see you soon.

Babatude Winter Collection Photography Shoot.

I had a total blast while photographing the winter collection from Babatude Children's Wear with a Dash of Attitude!
As you might remember we first had parents send us photographs of their children for the model shoot. We had overwhelming response and thank you all so much for participating. As with everything only a few can be selected, let me introduce you to Boudi and Ashley.

Big thank you to the lovely models and their parents for being so great during our photo shoot!
Could not have done it without you guys!! xxx 
For those of you that don't know about Babatude I can vouch for how lovely their clothes are the fabrics they use are absolutely amazing! The baby sleeping bag above is made of soft cashmere it is so soft I can't even describe it to make is justice. 
Their philosophy and concept is to combine a fusion of style, vibrancy and luxury all bundled up with a splash of attitude. They have given mass produced stiff and scratchy clothes the elbow, in favour of limited collections in classically cool styles using deliciously soft cashmere and merino wool. Their commitment to quality and luxury speaks for itself. All their clothing items are individually handmade with great care, which makes them an ideal purchase or a precious gift that can be treasured for years to come.    
Babatude products can be purchased online at www.babatude.com (couriered delivery within the UAE through online purchases is only AED 18) or call Joanna on 050 502 7137 to view the range or for more information.
Over and out for now!
