Our first set of twins!!

Last weekend, on a cold Autumn morning (which felt like a winter one), we had these two sweeties come and visit us.  I will let them introduce themselves......



These two belong to Melissa and Thayne, who love them dearly, as any parent would!  Samuel and Adele kept us amused, Adele with her intelligence and persitance to steal toys off her dear brother, and Samuel for that beautiful smile and placid personality.

After the session which went very smoothly (especially with double the trouble), we had so much trouble trying to cut down the amount of photographs to put on Melissa and Thayne's Gallery ....good luck with choosing guys, there were so many that we just loved and had to put in!!

Melissa, thanks for bringing your two beautiful children to us, we had such fun with you all.  We also enjoyed the small insight we got into what it is like to have twins, you do such a wonderful job, you really do!

When we asked our latest client, Cherie, to describe her two boys, Deegan and Lincoln, she gave us one word- "Crazy!"

When these two cheeky boys came to visit us, our studio came alive with laughter, noise and lots of fun! Cherie explained that Deegan and Lincoln are true boys and love to play anything "boy related". So what better thing to do than pull out the capes and play superheros!

Our camera had to be super quick to catch these two as they zoomed all around the studio! And when all the superhero play was over and done we managed to capture a few quiet moments....

Thanks Cherie and Andrew for allowing us to shoot your two gorgeous boys and Deegan and Lincoln for being such superstars!

Fun in the studio

So a little while back, we had a lot of fun with these two, but especially with Jay boy!  Who wouldn't love getting popcorn chucked all over them while trying to protect themselves with an umbrella!?  Thanks for joining in with the fun Jay!

And meet Miss Sienna, Jay Boy's little sister.  Tomorrow Sienna turns the big two!  Normally very outgoing and chatty, this day Sienna was a little shy.  Every kid goes through this stage at least once in their life, but we still got some gorgeous photographs of her.

Notice the rocking horse, this was made by our Pop for our Mum when she was little.  Mum keeps everything!  We used to laugh about it and tell her to chuck out all the junk she had, but now that we are a bit older and having kids of our own, we are so grateful that she kept so much of it!

Have a great birthday Sienna, may this year be another one full of milestones, memories and laughs!!  Thanks again Kelli for bringing the kids in and having some fun with us, with appreciate your support!

Hello Ash!

We are almost caught up on the blog backlog!  And with some shoots coming up, this is a good thing!  So here is a shoot from a little while ago, meet Ashley!  Normally all smiles and blue eyes, Ash was a little quiet on this day.  Nether the less, we got some cute shot of this beautiful boy who has now turned the magical age of one!

Thanks Jade for bringing Ash to see us, we had such a great time with him!  Those blue eyes could make us melt!

Meet the Faces

So, we thought it was about time you met the faces behind "Sarah Belle Photography" properly.  We know a lot of our friends pop by to support us, but we also know there are lots of strangers or people we have yet to meet that come by here too.  We are hoping that no matter who you are, you might find out something new about us that you didn't know before!

So without further ado.....us (photographs taken by us!).

Second in waiting...

Meet Nicole and her beautiful family, daughter Ava Grace and husband Steve.  And in there, baby number two, despite the shocked look on Nicole's face, classic!

I first met Nicole at Mother's Group when I (Belle) first had Phoebe.  Since then, we have been good friends, the girls better friends, play dates each week and swimming lessons together. 

 

Thanks for being the first to try out our new coloured wrap, beautiful!

And baby number two, waiting patiently, not long now, only a couple of weeks if all goes to plan.

Nicole, despite being a little tired from lack of sleep and running round after Ava, you look amazing (Steve, you're not too shabby yourself!).  Thank you for allowing us to capture you and your family before your new addition arrives!  We wish you the best of luck for the next few weeks and can't wait to meet your bubba!

Growing up so fast!

A while ago, I was lucky enough to photography Jack, when he was just a wee boy unable to sit, just lay there and smile and try to find out where that clicking sound was coming from.  It's nice when you get to see clients a bit later on and see how much they have grown, in body, soul, personality and in milestones.  Jack, it was so nice to see your smiling face again and those beautiful blue eyes....

Thanks Jodie for bringing along Jack's train, so cute!

Thanks Jodie for bringing Jack along to see us again, we hope to see him again in the future!
