Noah came to the studio today at just over a week old. This was my first newborn shoot which I have wanted to do for sometime. Many mums have mentioned to me in the past that feel they should wait a while before bringing their babies in for some photos as they want to wait until they are a few months old at least but I feel they are missing out on some very precious moments to capture. I see it as a great opportunity and the closer to birth the better. This shows what can be achieved and this was the first shoot of such a young baby for me. I hope these photos will help mums decide to come in to the studio in the very first days of the baby’s life.

What a beautiful month it turned out to be with all that white stuff! It gave me a chance to get out and capture some photos for my Christmas cards for next year.

My wife is from Prague and so this year it was her mum’s turn to have us there this year. We tend to take it in turns but I’m not that keen on carp for Xmas dinner;) I just bought myself a small compact for taking on hols so I have a pocket camera handy at all times therefore the Pragus shots and the one of my little girl Tiffany were taken on the Panasonic Lumix with it’s Leica f2 lens; I am really pleased with this little ‘gem’.

Unfortunatley I had to leave my wife and daughter on the 28th in Prague and come back to the UK on my own as I had a wedding on the 31st. The couple had managed to arrange to have some shots taken in the V&A which was great.

So happy New Year and hope you enjoy a few shots from the past couple of weeks.

I have just uploaded my new wedding portfolio http://www.pjphoto.co.uk/wedding_2010/index.html uploaded today but it still a bit of work in progress and over the next month more work will be added and I will be adding a gallery of venues I often work. I hop eyou enjoy and feedback very welcome please.
