Little Ballerina {Newborn}

Elize Mare Photography did Ilcke's Maternity session in December 2014...

 Little Ilcke's due date was around the 12th of March, but she was born a few weeks too early!
 She was in ICU for 23 days and we only got around to doing her Newborn session this past weekend in Studio and what a little angel she is!

These are just a few of my favorite images....

Just plain Cute! {Willem}

Newborn photography is such a sweet and special shoot.  Capturing those little tiny features of the newborn... the more sleepy than awake state... I adore these!
Elize Mare Photography was privileged to share in another special shoot with  Yolande and Willem with their newborn Willem jnr.  I'm saying 'another' because earlier this year (in  March) I did their Pregnancy announcement shoot, and from there I visited Yolande every month to capture one image to show the baby bump growth....
For the newborn session, I visited them at home, as it was in the middle of our winter season, and set up in the spare room - with gorgeous natural light coming in through the window.

Here's Willem:

Little munchkin

Jacolette and Stanley visited me with their little man.  He is such a cutie pie and once again I had loads of fun with capturing these special images.

Lively Lillly

Little Lilly is turning one!
And as part of her Birthday Gift, her Grandmother booked a photosession with me.

The original venue I chose for the shoot was a bit... uhm... occupied with a huge market, so I opted for shooting just next to the road and next to a small river where there were loads of leaves.
Suited quite well I think...  seeing that Lilly is a winters baby :)

well here she is... cupcake and all!

Little Love... Matthiam

Matthiam has visited me three times in studio allready! 

Well, that's if you count Mommy's Maternity shoot as well :)

This is his story up to now...

The first time I 'met' Matthiam... well, he was still in his Mother's womb!  Kym looked beautiful during her pregnancy, and I was fortunate to capture a few special images before Matthiam made his arrival....

Then Matthiam came to the Studio when he was 3 months young.. an adorable little boy and his Mom and Dad's pride and joy!

 This past Saturday... Matthiam visited me once again!
 He is such a friendly little guy, I literally couldn't stop myself from take some gorgeous images... these will for sure be Never Forgotten!
Matthiam is now 8months young, and is already a heart-breaker - hold on tight Mom and Dad!  He is are growing up SO fast!
