To start off I want to share with you 3 little Shutterbugs who are so gorgeous.  Shutterbugs is my baby & children photography.  I love photographing families with their children and I do a package which allows me to follow a family from pregnancy all the way through to their little one’s 1st birthday.  I have spent time with a number of families but here are 3 Shutterbugs who all turned 1 over the summer.

Our first Shutterbug is little Celia.  She was born earlier than expected so our pregnancy shoot ended up becoming a newborn shoot.  It has to be said she wasn’t a fan of having her photo taken in the first shoot but by the final shoot she was a natural in front of the camera and an absolute delight to photograph.  She’s a true little redhead strawberry Shutterbug.

Our second Shutterbug is Daniel.  His mum got one of our Shutterbug “Birth to 1st Year” vouchers as a gift when she had Daniel.  It was a gift from a friend who lives in Thailand so she saw it as a great way to keep track of how Daniel was growing up & changing.  Daniel had a few moments in our first shoot where he needed to let us know he wasn’t happy but after a little nap he was ready for his photo to be taken.  A gorgeous blue eyed boy.

Our third and final Shutterbug is the gorgeous Niamh.  I first met Niamh when she was only a couple of weeks old. Like Daniel, her mum had also been bought a voucher for our Shutterbug “Birth to 1st Year” package by the same friend who is out in Thailand and didn’t want to miss out on these little ones growing up.  When Niamh was first born she had beautiful auburn hair which she still had for her 3rd sitting but by the time I saw her for her 1st birthday she had a head ful of stunning blonde curls. Here she is as a very little Shutterbug.

3 very cute Shutterbugs to start my Strawberry Advent Blog.  I loved photographing these 3 littles ones over the last year.  It’s such a privilege to be able to see my Shutterbugs growing up from new born babies to cute toddlers.

This little one is quite a thinker and his expressions are priceless.  We were worried we were getting many smiles as he was quite happily sitting there watching what was going on but I’m really pleased that I got some great shots of his cheeky smile.

Cheeky grin!

I love my little Shutterbugs at this age as you can really see their personalities coming through.  It’s also such a priviledge to be part of such an important year in the family’s life and to be asked to be part of it.  I get to know the families and love every minute.

Here are a few more photos of this gorgeous little Shutterbug.
