Your birthday is always a great day. Especially if it's the first one. Did I mention this little kid is excited having his picture taken? And who said you have to eat the birthday cake anyway? It's as fun just to play with it! :-) Hit the link if you want to see more images. (more…)
It was a busy day two weeks ago when I got a phone call and didn't have time to pick up the phone immediately. Later checking my voice mail I heard a familiar voice. It was Franziska. Franziska is the mother of Lea, the baby I photographed in early 2009. And as I guessed now, she wanted to ask me if I would like to photograph the newest family member, Aline. Of course I was very happy and curious to meet Aline! It's always a wonderful thing if you don't meet a family only once, but have the chance to accompany them for a longer time. No matter if it's for a wedding or for family pictures. Aline has now about the same age than Lea had when I photographed…
It was a very hot day today. Maybe the hottest day of the year so far. After a little Odyssey because of road works everywhere I finally arrived at the house of Jannis' parents. It was a tiring baby session. I was sweating not only because of the heat, but also because Jannis was not too much convinced about the idea of a photo session. But he didn't know what he wanted anyway. Eating? Sleeping? Or no, sorry, changed my mind again! But I guess that's OK if you're just 6 weeks old. As I am already grown out of his age, I still have the same problem sometimes :-) After a (long) while of sweating Jannis finally gave up and went to sleep. Now it was getting at least…
Just a quick post of yesterday's baby session with lovely Andrin. Being 4 weeks old he was hungry during the whole shoot and after a while of eating and modeling for the photographer he went into sleep mode :-) Thanks for sharing some time with me, Andrin. Welcome to the world!
Today I'd like to introduce Nicola Tristan to you! He was born just before Christmas and is the younger brother of Fiorello, I photographed about one year ago (see this blog post). It was a special pleasure for me to meet the parents again and especially Fiorello who has grown a lot in the meantime. I'm very thankful for their trust to call me again to also photograph their youngest son. It's a sad story that shortly after the baby session with Fiorello last year it was found that he suffers from a serious disease. I was thinking a lot about this since his mum told me back then. I was really amazed to see now how everything has grown, their family, their love and Fiorello. I wish them all…
