Pregnancy Shoot – Berry – Illawarra Photographer

What beats the gift of life?? Absolutely nothing! .. Ashleigh was glowing in her 3rd trimester when we shot in the quiet town of Berry last week.
The leaves were a surreal orange colour, the air was crisp and the light was warmer than a hot fudge Sundae on a cold winter’s morning (just in case you didn’t get my drift.. that is some pretty awesome light!). When we first arrived at the local park, my eye was caught by this giant tree taller than a skyscraper (ok maybe I exaggerate a little LOL) of the most vibrant colour.
We started to shoot a few naked belly-bump shots (so pretty!) and Asheigh’s mum accompanied us to the shoot.. her belly curvature was so perfect.

There were times during the shoot where I would direct Ash to look up into the trees and imagine the day she would get to hold baby Jamie in her arms for the first time.. So instead of a peaceful gaze of spirituality and purity, she pulled a face which make me crack up.. So I featured the most candid shot of the entire shoot below. It is my favourite above all! I sigh and yes maybe I crack a little bit of a smile when I look back at this photo. It’s so cheeky and Ash’s dimples are to die for!

Autumn-ness

This one below is up there also for my most favourable shots of the entire shoot. Ash’s eyes just glisten and this shot just makes me so calm :)

And.. focusing in on baby

Just a variation of the previous shots.. sometimes it’s hard to choose.

Oh yes!.. the sacred orange tree I was telling you about! .. not a touch of photoshop saturation (honest!)

..

So then I asked Ash to lie down.. she didn’t have any objection to that! LOL

Just another angle. Focal point on eyelashes on f/2.8

And one last one for fun :)
