It is such a pleasure when parents choose us to capture the first year of their little ones life and we love being able to see newborns grow from tiny little babies into having their own personalities and even toddling about on their own 2 feet! It is a joy to see families bond and grow as time goes on and it is one of the many reasons we love being a Swansea photographer.
This is the Donaldson Family, and we were very lucky to get to photograph a tiny baby Poppy (she was only 6.4lbs!) when she was just 10 days old (check out her newborn pictures). Now we are back photographing her for a family session at 6 months old, and look how much she’s grown. She has a very happy, smiley personality and loves to make loud noises and giggles to make sure everyone knows she’s there! Big bro Jack wasn’t so keen to have his picture taken at the start, but soon realised Jon is a crazy big kid he could play with so happily got in front of the camera to have a few pictures too!
The Donaldson’s love the beach and the sea so wanted their family portrait shoot on one of the many beautiful beaches in the Gower. We finally settled on Langland (one of our favourite beaches!) and were lucky enough to get glorious weather, and it wasn’t too busy either! Being a Swansea photographer means we have the amazing coast and beautiful scenery right on our doorstep, as well as great forests and parks too, we really have the best of both world in Wales, and it’s perfect for family photo shoots like this.
We literally can’t wait to see Poppy and all her family again for her Cake Smash shoot in a few months time. Luckily mum and dad love our photographs as much as we love their awesome little family, so it looks like we will be working with them for years to come and that makes us super happy!! Here’s what Mum Jodie said after viewing their photos last week
“I just love them all!!!!! You are so brill. Thank you both we are just over the moon. You are the bestest.
We are just so glad we found you both!! You will be our forever photographers!!!
You just don’t realise how good you guys are!! Thank you xxxx”
