Happy Valentine's Day!

I hope you all had a lovely day and someone made you feel special, be that your soul-mate, your baby or maybe your Mum!

I thought it would be nice to dig through my archives and find a couple of photos that make you remember how nice it is to love and be loved...

Tutus and Tiaras...

Little girls love to dress-up, to play make believe and to pretend to be anything that is magical, fairy-like and sparkly. For me, photoshoots aren't just about capturing a good picture of a little face, it's also about allowing children to imagine themselves as something out of a story tale.

With this in mind, I decided to create a little dressing-up haven for three little three year old girls and let them loose on my stash of pearls, tulle, faux fur and glitter.




It only took them a few minutes before all three of them were clad in net ballet skirts, tiaras and fairy wings and even with two languages to contend with, they realised that the best form of communication was to run around like fairies and giggle...


I think the pictures speak for themselves, so here are a couple from the sparkly afternoon...
