Ali & Brooke

I was delighted to welcome Alison and Alan, whose wedding I photographed back in 2009, and their gorgeous new addition Brooke, for a Mum & Baby shoot at the weekend. Alison was treated to a makeup session with Pretty Flamingo, before mum and baby posed for the camera, first with fluffy cream rugs and then a dramatic black backdrop and electric blue dress for Ali, reminiscent of Madonna & Child. I loved their LOVE sign too, which worked beautifully. Brooke was incredibly curious about the studio lights, but in the end all that hard work modelling made for a very tired little baby, and she fell asleep, which allowed us to take some wonderful, peaceful photographs.
