This was an Eden Natural  Birth family gathering. A very special  occasion for families who’d given birth with Mandi. It’s a time to catch up, play, laugh, share stories and toys, and spend some time with good people. Thank you everyone for coming to share the day. We’re looking forward to the next one!

PS. Mandy Lilly, we really missed you today!

RHODES FAMILY SHOOT

What a special experience that was. Beautiful Rhodes family photographed at the Wilderness beach, Garden Route, South Africa.
This young family already expecting their second child. It was a very special moment when little sister after playing on the beach ran to her mom to give a kiss to her future sister/brother in the tummy. Oh those moments are so precious and so worth capturing. We ran, we jumped over the waves, we played, we laughed and stood in awe watching magnificent sunset over the ocean.

SVETA AND SONYA

During my travels this winter I visited family in Russia. I haven’t been in Russia for more than three years, which made the visit even more special. My cousin Sveta gave birth to a gorgeous girl Sonya 6 months ago. I couldn’t resist and not to take photos of these two special people.

Here are some highlights from a new family photo story of mother and daughter.

DU TOIT FAMILY

Meet Du Toit Family.

This happy bunch first appeared very shy in front of my camera. But few playful tasks for boys, couple of Russian words and some encouragement helped them to open up! I find it is always easier to photograph families with kids in a very playful way. We have been crossing rivers with crocodiles, jumping from one ship to another, climbing trees and just being silly. Parents love to play along and help transform common park into a real scene of action. Thank you for such fun photoshoot, so blessed!
