Talk us through the Forever Bliss story and what inspired you to create it?
I have many years experience working in the advertising and commercial photography industry, and after the birth of my first child Jack, I was taking hundred of photos of him, as you can imagine! Then my friends started asking me to photograph their children, and their friends, and friends of their friends etc wanted me to photograph their babies, so Forever Bliss Photography was born!
Working with children can be rewarding and challenging at the same time, what’s the formula to capturing those precious moments on camera?
Yes, what's that old saying? never work with children and animals! It is very very rewarding to me, to be able to capture a child's personality, a beautiful sleepy baby and the relationship and love happening in those first few weeks with a new baby. Honestly it has a lot to do with patience, and practice, I have some clients call me the baby whisperer!
What are you working on at the moment?
I have a very very busy few weeks coming up with lots of new babies to photograph, and with this gorgeous spring weather now here, lots of bigger kids at the beach, I love spring sessions!
WE are also exhibiting at The Baby Show at Royal Hall of Industries Fox Studios on 18, 19, 20th September, so we are busy preparing everything for our stand there, working on some great promotions and special offers for the show!
When a child hates having there photograph taken you....
I take the time to get the know the child, it can be quite overwhelming for them, so I quite often will put the camera down and just chat with them, tell them some silly stories, tickle them, play with them, make then feel comfortable with me. If I can get them laughing at me for being silly that usually works!
Your most memorable photography moment?
Gosh, that's a hard one. It would have to be capturing the exact image I had in my mind of my boys at the beach at sunset. I now have that image printed on canvas 30x40" on my lounge room wall. I love it so much!
When you’re not photographing you are…
At the beach with my boys, relaxing with friends and have a nice glass of wine with great company.
