We used Louise Rose Photography for a maternity shoot and two baby shoots (we originally just booked for one, but we loved the photos so much we added more!). I really recommend Louise. She takes beautiful, natural photos in your home and outside. She makes your home and family look lovely but the photos still feel very real. Louise is a warm and reassuring person and works hard to give you exactly what you're looking for.

Her website is:

Hi, I've used Photograface by Valentina a couple of times now (once when my daughter was born, and again for her 1st birthday) - she is very versatile, and does natural shots (eg. outdoors, at your home) as well as with props etc...so it's worth looking at her website and seeing her work. I met her at the Northcote road Christmas fayre a couple of years back, and love the photos she took of my little family. Hope this helps! Nims

Ooh thanks, Tatiana's pictures are very much what I want!

Any more to look at for comparison...?

Tatiana Reubrecht has just done some wonderful photos of my lot. I can highly recommend her, she mucked about with the kids, had loads of fun and then somehow delivered the most beautiful pictures.

Thanks, she looks good. Any other recommendations would be good!

I should mention I will want a copy of the digital images, so looking for someone who offers that (hopefully most do?)

Annie Armitage is brilliant - anniearmitage.com

I'd like to get some professional photographs of my children done while they are still little (3 and 1).

Could anyone recommend someone they have used? There seem to be so many out there. If you are a photographer I'm also happy to receive self recommendations.

I'm hoping for natural photos, natural light, not posed or with costumes/props. Just the children looking lovely (hopefully ) I'd especially like some close up portraits. And obviously need someone who is good at getting littlies to cooperate!

Thanks
