Edward's Newborn Family Session

Last year I photographed the absolutely heart touching garden wedding of Maree and Hugh at Stangate House in Aldgate. And recently I was excited to receive a phone call that they had welcomed a gorgeous new baby boy into the world! I met Maree, Hugh and little Edward at their beautiful home for some photos by the warm wood fire and in the light filled nursery. Before we headed out with their lovely, old golden retriever Cleo.

I love involving furry friends in photo sessions, they are a very special part of the family and Cleo was so cute with baby Edward. Our outdoor location was perfect. After spending a couple of hours driving around the hills searching for an outdoor newborn location the day before I had come across epic hikes and rustic scenes, but I hadn’t come across the gentle walk and natural, tree filled scene I’d been hoping for. That was at least, until the morning I was driving up to meet Maree & Hugh. With a bit of time up my sleeve after a cruisy drive I decided to take the scenic route, and was led right to Hender Reserve. It was gently light filled with tree lined paths, soft green grass and gentle slopes. Absolutely perfect.

The love Maree and Hugh have for both Edward and each other simply glows. They are such the sweetest little family and it was an absolute joy to capture these memories for them. xx
