A fun filled family photo shoot in Dubai

This family is one of my regulars I photograph them every year since the little ones were born. I just love to see how the children grow up and change in between the times I see them.
They were both such sweet hearts during our photography session. We did it outdoors since the weather has started to cool down a bit now but it is still quite warm if you are out for a long time.
When you are photographing children it is always a good idea to bring in an element in the photographs that they enjoy and like such as the bubbles they also create a very fun photography prop.

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!

Family Portraits

Yesterday morning I was busy editing a family portrait photo shoot I had done earlier. The couple had a lovely baby girl of 4 months she was a darling to photograph. She was such a sweetheart so happy to go along with what I wanted. All in all it was a lovely afternoon shoot in the couples home which was amazing to see. 

Their decorating was great it was like walking into a interior decorator shop every detail was just so spot on. The husband had even made a mould out of his wife's stomach while she was pregnant from breast down to where the belly ends and made a lamp out of it! I unfortunately did not take a picture of it I should have it was such a great idea, the mum told me she loved it since it made her remember her pregnancy and how wonderful it was. 

They had loads off I don't want to say odd things just different things that you do not find in most homes that complemented each other so well. If they ever want to change career they can definitively be an Interior Design Duo traveling the world to find the ultimate pieces for their clients homes. 

I got some wedding images to finish today so I guess I better get on it.

Hope that you have a lovely day. 

Helen
