First of all, I am am very excited to announce that the Bradford household is expecting a new arrival late October. Ash will become a big sister!!! As you can probably guess she is very excited by the prospect and has already started planning all the torture.. oh I mean FUN things she will get to do with her new sibling! What this means is that I will be focusing on more studio style portrait sessions in my home over the next few months. It’s time to get back to where this whole photography journey started for me and that is with babies and maternity. As it’s been mainly commercial work I have been commissioned for lately I am in need of a portfolio update, so if you know any pregnant mummies-to-be or mummies of new bubbas let them know to keep an eye on the blog as I will be doing some Casting Calls in the next month or so. A casting call is a great chance to receive a session at a highly discounted rate whilst helping me freshen up my portfolio so stay tuned!

I haven’t posted any photos of Ash on the blog since she turned 3 last month so here are a few recent snaps of her looking far too grown up for my liking!

My last image is from our trip to Taronga Zoo on Sunday. Ash’s grandparents came along and we did so much walking by the end of the day we were all ready to drop. Here is Ash having a ride on the baby giraffe statue. It’s crazy to think that poor giraffe mummy gave birth to something that size!
