Baby Showers, Birthday Parties, Gender Reveals, Baptisms, Dedications

These are all big milestones in your families life and we know you plan them with love and care to mark your child’s moments with something special. A party!

These events are always exciting, anticipated celebrations. Milestones marking a family’s journey and a record of your baby as they grow through toddler and childhood years.

Big days like this and their and subsequent gatherings are fun with good food, drink, games, and decorations. You spend hours and hours planning them with great care.

We want to catch all the moments as they unfold -catching those smiles, sparkling eyes, laughter and connections with your family and friends as thy celebrate with you. Your guests are not there to work. They are important members of your family’s inner circle.

Let your guests be guests

No one wants to say, “No” to the hosts when they ask, “Would you mind taking photos?” But you know these photos are really important to you, you’re busy with catering and running the event and often the photos are left by the wayside and you end up disappointed that important parts of the day, and your careful planning, weren’t captured and you’re left disappointed by the lack of memories to look back on.

The reality is a) it’s a big responsibility, and b) how can you be a participant when you are an observer? Guests are there to share in the celebrations and joys of the day. Let your guests be guests.

Don’t leave the photography to anyone but a professional. These photos will become your memories for generations. A professional photographer will capture candid photos with creativity at the highest quality. Further, you will have the assurance that after your event, you will have framable pictures.

What do professional event photographers capture during these events?

While a professional photographer will of course take breathtaking photos of your baby, your family as well as smiling friends and family, there are plenty of other photo opportunities.

Event moments: The exact moment and reactions of the baby gender reveal, the moment of blessing of water over your babies head at the baptism, presents being opened, the cake being cut at birthday parties and baby showers. All the important moments are captured and nothing is missed.
Party Favours: From beautiful baked snacks, themed styling and the fancy drawstring bags filled with goodies, even the little things should be captured.
Games & Decor: A baby shower isn’t complete without pastel coloured decorations and plenty of fun games for the guests.
Invitations: Most invitations take a significant amount of planning which means they deserve a nice snapshot too!
Behind the Scenes: You can remember all the effort that was put into the big day with a few photos from the setup.
Food & Drink: Whether catered or home cooked, food is always a focus at any party and often one of the most time consuming elements to organise - and then it disappears into hungry tummies so fast!
