Sue has been one of my best friends since high school, which is a very verrrrrrry long time ago. Her and hubby Wayne have a cute little daughter Grace who’s now three…and now they are expecting twin boys! They are going to have their hands full, but I think it’s exciting times ahead. I wanted to do a mix for Sue’s shoot – part maternity, part ‘boudoir‘-maternity. Sue loves antiques and all things arty, so I wanted to bring some of her personality into the shoot and show how being pregnant is actually quite sexy too!

Sue & Wayne’s maternity shoot
Tuesday, August 10th, 2010Jules’ Boudoir photoshoot
Thursday, December 10th, 2009Jules Morgan and I have been friends for close to 2 years. We’ve built up a rocking friendship over this time, going to Cuba in 2007 when we barely knew each other, and now, meeting for coffee’s and catch-up’s every week. We share a deep love of photography in it’s most simplest and natural form and a complete love of exploring and travelling. I’ve been thinking about where my photography is going, how I can keep myself inspired and how I can expand on what i’ve been shooting. I love shooting weddings – the fact that wedding photography has evolved so much and photographers are given so much creative freedom is just amazing. I’ve been keeping an eye on Jules’ boudoir blog, falling more and more in love with the idea of expanding my business to include these shoots. I want to enter the market with a different angle, something really arty, sensual and playful. Women of all shapes and sizes should celebrate their bodies and love what they have – after all our bodies are with us every day. As well as being an anniversary gift from Jules to her hubby, it was also an opportunity for me to make some awesome images for her to celebrate being 30, celebrate being a woman, and celebrate being alive. Jules, thanks for for being such a honey bee of a friend and being open enough for me to publish these images of you – I can’t imagine you not being in my life now!
