Having said that, my family/baby pictures are not particularly traditional. I'm not going to fix everyone's clothes and I don't mind a little baby drool - there are a ton of photographer/studios out there who'll do the "Smile" kind of shoot and so I warn my clients that these will be more environmental/relaxed pictures. No giant fake numbers or cake smashes or babies in teacups :)
Anyhoo, a few weeks ago I met up with Georgette and Brett one of my 2009 couples (I don't know what was in the water in 2009 but it was a bumper crop year for babies!) and their adorable baby boy Rowan:
Quick reminder - here's Brett & Georgette on their wedding day in 2009. It rained like crazy - torrential weather for their Cape wedding - but they say rain on your wedding day is lucky...
And here they are today!
Rowan had the best expressions ever:
I suggested to Brett & Georgette that we sit Rowan in the sand and get some pictures of the two of them. Not having any children I was unaware of their love for eating sand...
Ummm, hello cute family!
Daddy and Rowan:
Mommy and Rowan:
Rowan even makes drooling look adorable:
I call this one "Flying Baby"
Bye bye Baby Rowan :) You're a lucky little man to have the parents you do.
Do you want your own relaxed family pictures with the word "smile!" banned from the session? Email me leah@leahhaydock.com for more information about scheduling a session over the winter...

OH the cuteness in these pictures! :)Those big brown eyes are amazing!!!
