Jennifer Stocks Photography – The Blog

Just before Christmas I visited and photographed a very special baby girl. This lucky little girl was welcomed to the world by her beautiful parents, Brett and Sirlina and big sister, Tatem. I have photographed this family several times over the last few years, and they hold a very special place in my heart.

Little Phoenix Ruby arrived in early December, and we held her session shortly afterwards. Although she didn’t think sleeping was the most brilliant idea, she did relax in spurts and we were able to take some beautiful photos of her. Phoenix has been blessed with the most beautiful curly lips, eyelashes and hair! In fact, her parents couldn’t believe how much hair she had all over her little body! Beautiful wispy little baby hairs that have probably disappeared by now…

The most challenging part of the session was trying to achieve a shot of the two sisters together. Even for a one year old, big sister Tatem is a bit too smart for us and no amount of bribery or coaxing was going to work. In the end though, we did manage to get a few shots of the two beautiful girls together. I also couldn’t resist grabbing a shot of the new bundle with her gorgeous cousin, Cleo, and I think it is one of my favourite photographs from the day.

I hope you guys enjoy your sneak peek, and I also have your gallery ready. I will be in touch! Thanks for having me photograph your

Fresh morning. Beautiful weather. Stunning children.

Cheeky firecracker of a little man. Sweet angelic little girl. Have I mentioned before that I love what I do?

I was so happy to meet up with these guys and photograph them. We trotted around to three different locations – both grandparents homes, then their own (all within a couple of km’s of each other – how cool is that?). These guys are seriously wonderful together. The hugs are tight and the kisses are so expressive. I see a mum and dad who are madly in love with their little creations. Ah, but who can blame them?

Tristan, Carissa, Ashton and Arabella – I hope you guys enjoy your sneak peek. Hands down my fave image is of Ashton & Mum together – so tender, so loving, so unforgettable. I will be in touch with your gallery really soon!

A beautiful little life came into the world on Saturday 5am, 5th September. This perfect little creature was my nephew Eli, and he arrived 5 days early. I was fortunate enough to share the entire experience with my sister and mum (as her husband was at work in Queensland and wasn’t able to get there on time). In fact, I even had the pleasure of photographing the birth to show Eli’s daddy. It was the most awakening, fulfilling, amazing experience watching this perfect little creature come into the world.

It was even more inspiring watching my brave, amazingly gutsy sister give birth to him. She is a true hero. (Not to mention the fact that she was home by lunch-time that day to ensure she was around for our little sisters hens night which just so happened to be on the same day). Fortunately it was being held at our parents house so she could sneak away for some quiet time, and a quick kip or two. I think it definitely makes a difference that it was her 3rd baby, so doing it that way was far more achievable than if it was her first baby!

So, of course – I had to take some newborn photographs of this gorgeous little man. He has a beautiful head of hair and gorgeous eyelashes and lips. He actually looks so much like his dad it is uncanny. So, here we go – some long awaited images of this gorgeous little man….Oh, how I love him.

I had such a fantastic time with this adorable little man, Ralph and his mum during our photo session. I was lucky enough to have met Ralph before I took his photographs as I have known his mummy since high school. This little man is very blessed to have been born into such an incredibly loving and wonderful family. He will be truly loved and treasured. His beautiful mum is such a sweet, nurturing soul – she really is the kind of woman who was born to be a mother. I love seeing the way my sweet friend is with her new little bundle. I know motherhood is such a wonderful thing for her.

Here are a few images from the session – I just love the photographs of mum and baby together. Fe, I hope you like them! I will be in touch very soon with your gallery.

A few weeks ago, I had the pleasure of photographing a beautiful pregnant lady. Next step – a beautiful newborn. Here is little Paddy (you can see his mum and dad under this post). He was such a gorgeous little creature, but did not like the idea of sleep or nudity! However, we ended up with some beautiful images of litte Paddy – we just had to find the right way of photographing him! I hope you enjoy your preview guys – I can’t wait to see what a great kid your little man turns out to be.
