Adelaide Photographer – Sweet Chilli Philly Photography

The one thing that is good when bargaining with your three year old is when you know that they wont turn down the bargain of sharing your birthday malteasers (and yes there are some leftover as it was a huge box given by my inlaws – they know my love of chocolate!) so Ethan happily lent me himself  for a mini shoot and boy did I get some poses lol! Oh and he loved the malteasers…gobbling them up extra quick!

So do you think he’s had enough now?

Last week I had the pleasure of photographing Amber, Daniel and their new baby girl Annabelle. You could just see how in love they were with their new addition to the family, they were such a gorgeous family to photograph. This is what I love about my job is capturing these very first moments of life…

Thanks so much Amber and Daniel for letting me to photograph your beautiful family!

So without further ado let me introduce you to miss Annabelle!

Today I had the sweetest little five day old, Baylee. He is the youngest that I have ever had in the studio but he definitely kept me on my toes. With only the shortest sleeping time where I snapped a quick few, he decided to stay awake or fought just on the edge of sleep but honestly he had the most gorgeous eyes so much so that it didn’t matter that we didn’t get a heap of curly sleepy shots, we got some beautiful shots of him awake instead! Isn’t he gorgeous!

Alan and Jess, congratulations on the birth of your little boy, I hope you enjoy your sneak peek and I will be in touch soon!

Today I had the adorable 6.5 month old Harper, it took awhile for her to warm up to me but with my special Mr Frog ( my newly brought puppet that makes a croaking sound) and with Mum and Dad’s help  we got some really gorgeous smiles out of her.

Thanks so much for today Stacey and Grant, I hope you enjoy your sneak peek and I will be in touch with you both soon!

Sorry I’ve been so busy with sessions I haven’t had a chance to update my blof with my self portraits so thought now would be a good time. So here you go:

Week 4

No really story to this one, I thought I would go for a moody shot, it’s great fun now that I have a wireless remote!

Week 5

Ethan was determined to be in this weeks photo and to be honest I love this shot of us togther!

Week 6

Okay this one is probably a little depressing lol as it’s how I’m feeling at the moment and I’m trying to be as honest with these SP as I can.

Sometimes things get the best of me and all I want to do is curl up into a little ball and close my eyes. Sometimes I wish the world would rewind time and I can start things over, sadly this cannot be done and I cannot change how things are.

There is light at the end of the tunnel it’s just a matter of how long it takes to get there…I will get there but at the moment I just wish things had happened a little different.

Last weekend I had the opportunity to photograph the most gorgeous couple M & J. It was a beautiful touching ceremony with the beach only just metres away which is perfect from a photographers opinion. Although it started out quite windy it did manage to calm down and we got that beautiful sunset come through, it was just stunning! You could just see their love shining through for each other which makes a wedding so heartwarming…

Here is just a few shots from their special day…

Today I got to photograph the gorgeous Shayla, with the bluest of eyes and fairest of hair, she was a true beauty! Although a reasonably quick session we got some gorgeous images and even a couple with her big brother and sister!

Chaunte and Matt I hope you enjoy your sneak peek and I will be touch with you soon with the rest of your gallery.

Today I had the pleasure of meeting Connor who is 13 months old, with such dark brown eyes and an adorable little grin it was a delight to take his photographs although he was very quick for such a little guy and I’m sure his mum was pretty exhausted having to chase him the entire session! Well it was certainly worth it and we got some beautiful shots of this little chap.

Kahlene, I hope you enjoy your sneak peek of your adorable little guy and I will be in touch with you soon!
