Celebration of love
It was exciting to welcome a brand new
Easter baby to the studio this week! Baby Wyatt was born on Good Friday to Mum
and Dad (aka Cassie and Stephen) and they came to Image to have a wonderful
newborn photo shoot!
At only 7 days old little Wyatt was a
darling to have in the studio and was very easy-going and well-behaved! We got
some lovely shots of him snuggled up on the fur blankets we have, as well as
beautiful photos capturing the whole family together.
The bond between father and son |
Dad Stephen has lots of fantastic tattoos
and we captured some wonderful shots contrasting these with the vulnerability
and innocence of baby Wyatt, showing the close bond that has already formed
between father and son. Such a close bond in fact that Wyatt felt comfortable
enough pooing on Dad in the studio!! Talk about an action shot!
The happy family had such a beautiful
selection of photos to choose from, and they will now be able to treasure these
at home in one of our albums!
It was also a pleasure to welcome South
African couple Anita and Erika to Image Portrait Studio this week along with
their two Jack Russells - Starbuck and Meelix! Anita and Erika have known each
other a long time and do lots of activities together such as tandem cycling and
karate!
Pets are always an important part of the
family and we showed that bond by creating some lovely group shots of the 4 of
them all together, enjoying being in each others company.
Love shared in a happy family |
As well as this, we
wanted to capture the closeness and love between Anita and Erika and we spent
some time focusing on the happy couple. We love it when couples are open to
trying skin shots as the results are truly beautiful and highlights their
passion for each other in an intimate yet tasteful way.
Once again, there was such a wonderful range
of photos to choose and Anita and Erika created a stunning portfolio box of
memories to love forever!
Another happy couple we had the pleasure of
meeting this week were Bradley and Emma who came to the studio looking for some
wonderful couple photos. Originally from the UK, these guys are now settled
over here and have been married for a year.
They brought in their decorative wedding
cake base layer to include in the shoot and it was clear to see that the love
they share is still as strong as ever! We captured this by letting them look at
each other rather than at the camera and their connection shows instantly,
along with their matching smiles!
As in love as on their wedding day! |
With this photo as the centrepiece, Emma and
Bradley created a sensational acrylic 'Contempo' piece of 5 beautiful photos,
that will be a perfect addition to their home!
All of our clients have so much love for one another, whether it is between a couple, a parent and child, or a whole family - pets included! In turn, we love to capture this and turn that closeness into art that they can treasure forever!

Happy Easter from Image Portrait Studio!
Easter is a time to spend with loved ones
and celebrate being a family, and we had some wonderful people in Image
Portrait Studio this week! Here are just a few of our favourite moments!
It was a pleasure to welcome Eldric, Reinallen
and Renai to the studio last week to celebrate Renai's upcoming first birthday!
Little Renai was a dream to have in the studio, with his cheeky little smile
and bags of personality! He was a bundle of joy who clearly adores his Mum and
Dad and there was a lot of giggling in the studio from everyone involved!
They were such a wonderful family and it was
clear to everyone how much they all love each other. Eldric and Reinallen were
in matching 'Super man' and 'Wonder girl' t-shirts, and it's only a matter of
time before little Renai has one of his own! It was a real pleasure to photograph such
a happy family and we captured the closeness between them all beautifully.
Happy Families |
With
so many photos to choose from they left with a stunning 'Classico Canvas 4
Series' of family photographs, plus an additional canvas of Renai to showcase
at his birthday party next month!
We also had Vanita and the marvellous Grover
visit our studio for a 'Mum and Pup' shoot! Grover is a young labradoodle with
bundles of energy and a fun loving personality! It was so much fun to have him
in the studio and he stole all our hearts with his cute little face! He clear
adores Vanita and they have a lot of love to share and a very close bond.
We got Vanita and Grover to lie together on
the floor next to each other and just be natural so we could capture the real closeness of their relationship. Watching how they can communicate with each
other with just a look was a real privilege and goes to show that families come
in all shapes and sizes, and that even those who don't share a language can still share a
heart.
Best friends |
With so many photos to choose from Vanita
went for one of our beautiful albums full of memories that she is going to
treasure forever. Just like children, young pups such as Grover inevitably grow up and we think it is so important to capture those moments before they have passed by to create lasting memories.
Seeing how happy our work makes people and being able to create these timeless memories is so worthwhile and is exactly why we love what we do here at Image Portrait Studio!

Laughter and tears at Image Portrait Studio
It's always a lot of fun when we have a large family in the studio - particularly when they bring their furry friends along too! Yolande and Rudolf came in with their two sons and Yolande's parents who were visiting from South Africa, then add Varkie the staffie and a cat to the mix too and it's no wonder we all had so much fun in the studio! Varkie had to have a sniff at everything and explore the studio and stole all our hearts with her lovely personality!
It was lovely to get the grandparents involved in the photo shoot too and we captured some really special memories for the whole family! One of our favourites was of father and son - Big Rudolf and Little Rudolf - standing back to back and looking at each other, it really captures how little Rudolf looks up to his Dad! Managing to get the family all together for a fantastic group family portrait was brilliant fun, especially with getting the pets involved too!
There were so many family dynamics for us to photograph, from individual shots to the whole family together, and they were thrilled with the results! They went away with a wonderful selection of photos in one of our beautiful portfolio boxes that they can treasure forever!
It was a pleasure to welcome Cheryl to the studio on Friday for what was meant to be a business-style corporate shoot, but ended up being a spur of the moment 'All About Me' shoot instead! Cheryl was a blast and we all had so much fun with her in the studio! She had a fantastic bubbly personality and was game for all of our photographers ideas, and we finished up doing a wonderful skin photo shoot showcasing Cheryl in all of her glory!
It was an honour to make Cheryl feel as special as she deserves to feel and give her such an amazing experience with us. Cheryl epitomises why we love what we do and brightened our day! She had tears in her eyes when we showed her all of her beautiful photos, and for us to be able to bring that amount of joy to someone through what we do is a privilege.
Even though Cheryl had only planned on coming in for some corporate-style photos, she ended up with a stunning four canvas series of her beautiful photos. She thought she was just after a business photo, but what she actually needed was to be reminded how special and amazing she is.

A Sporty Weekend!
There was a lot of
fun and laughter in the studio this weekend – although luckily not because of
any April Fool’s Day pranks!! We had a number of sporty couples in the studio
that brought in their sports gear and recreated the competitive atmosphere and sportsmanship
spirit for us and we all had a great time! We love it when our clients share a
passion for a particular activity and are able to bring that into the studio
for us to capture and create special memories unique to their lives!
We were excited to
welcome Amy and Mitchell into the studio this weekend as one of their favourite
activities is to go quad biking together! We captured some wonderful shots of
them both in their riding gear - Amy in pink and black and Mitchell in yellow, blue
and black - and the results were great! Unfortunately we weren't able to have
their quads in the studio (they wouldn't quite fit through the door!!) but they
brought along their helmets and we got some amazing photos!
Sharing a love of quad bikes and each other

As well as these great shots, we also captured
their romantic side, taking some beautiful photos of them both in the outfits
they wore to their recent engagement party! We love recreating memories in our
studio so it was wonderful to capture photos for them that will always remind
them of that special time! Amy and Mitchell had an amazing selection of photos
and went home with a beautiful portfolio box filled with memories they will
treasure forever!
|
Another exciting couple that we welcomed to the studio over the weekend were Sarah and Matthew, who brought in their floorball kit for us and recreated a bit of friendly competition! Floorball was actually how they met so we all 'had a ball' creating those special memories for them in the studio! They both play regularly, Sarah in particular, so it was wonderful to capture their enthusiasm for the sport and their love for each other in the same shoot! One of our favourite shots was a silhouette-style photo of Sarah in her goalkeeper’s helmet and Matthew standing opposite her, heads close together and looking into each other’s eyes!
They scored a goal when they met each other and fell in love!
|
We also had Claire and Santino in the studio and they brought their wonderful doggies Nala and Ares in with them! Like all our couples this weekend, these guys were also very sporty, this time being into their AFL and came along in their team jerseys! We captured this brilliant shot of them all together with Ares showing her Mum some love and licks! We love capturing 'in the moment' shots such as this and it’s always fantastic when the results come out so well! |
With so many wonderful shots to choose from these
guys decided to buy one of our beautiful albums filled with loads of photos of
their fun and love filled day!
|
We always encourage our clients to bring along things they are passionate about when they come in to the studio, it creates a wonderful dynamic and a really great personalised shoot! As long as it fits through the door, you are welcome to bring it!!
