Wedding Photography – Kingsbrook Estate

Last weekend I was truly honored to photograph the beautiful wedding of Melanie and Marc.

Melanie and Marc, two people who absolutely adore each other and love one another unconditionally, stood before their family and friends in the beautiful gardens at Kingsbrook Estate and became husband and wife.

It was an amazing day cherished by all.

“I love you, not because of what you have, but because of what I feel,

I care for you, not because you need care, but because I want to…

I am always here for you, not because I want you to be with me, but because I want to be with you!” ~ Author unknown

Pretty as Pearl – Mermaid Cake Smash!!

Pretty as a Pearl!

On Monday, I got to enjoy the company of the cutest little poppet and her lovely Mum.

Pearl had popped over to celebrate her 1st Birthday, by smashing up a pretty cake.

Pearls Mum had found a gorgeous little lace ruffle set with an ocean theme, so, we decided to do a Mermaid cake smash session.

Pearl was hysterical, she dove right into the cake face first! Took a big bite and said hmmmmm!

Mum and I had such a laugh!

Pearl you are so gorgeous, I have loved going through and editing your blog photos.

Thank you so much Casey for booking me to capture Pearl’s “I am One” – Mermaid Cake Smash photographs! xx

Maternity at Mount Lofty

A few weeks ago, I met Kayla and Dan for their Maternity session.

 

Kayla looked absolutely stunning. She had found the most gorgeous maternity dress, that just draped beautifully, over her 38 weeks bump. We started the session off with some chatter about our families, their babies due date and before long Kayla and Dan were obviously feeling far more relaxed and we were all having a good laugh.

Together we explored some of my favourite little nooks in the Mount Lofty Botanical Gardens.

Dan the man as a named him that day, was a barrel of laughs and great entertainer throughout the session. This was wonderful, as it meant I was blessed with beautiful natural smiles and giggles from Kayla when she was having her portraits taken.

I got home that night and just loved so many of the photos, so much so, that, I have had a bit of trouble choosing which, photos to use for my blog!

I had a wonderful time photographing your beautiful bump Kayla and Dan and cannot wait to meet your little bundle of joy!

Thank you so much for allowing me to share such precious moments in your lives. xxx

Cake Smash Photography Fun!

Cake Smash Fun!!

I learned to laugh and squeal,
Then sit and stand,
And I can walk now if you hold my hand.
But the fun has only just begun,
Lookout world, I’m turning one!  Author – anonymous

A few weeks ago, I got photograph little Archie’s Cake Smash photography session. I couldn’t believe how much he had grown since his newborn photography session, only 10 short months ago!

Archie’s smile lit up the room as he played with and destroyed his cake. Archie had no hesitation in getting right into eating and smashing up his cake! He grabbed his first handful of icing and there was no stopping him!

Mum and I had lots of giggles throughout the session.

Poor Archie had a bit of an ear infection, but other than a few teary moments from the pain, Archie was a great cake smasher.

I felt truly honored to have been able to capture the 3rd of many momentous occasions for little Archie and his family. Archie’s Mum contacted me to do her maternity and newborn photography sessions and we have since become friends. I am really look forward to celebrating the birth of baby number 2 later this year!

Thank you Kirsty and Pete for allowing me to capture these precious moments for you! xxx

Wedding Photography – Melissa and Serif’s wedding!

Today, I witnessed a stunning bride marry her beloved groom.

Melissa is an old high school friend, so, watching her get married and being able to capture all the precious memories of her special day was such an honor.

Melissa and Serif were married at the stunning Garden Weddings at McLaren Flat, a private home with the most beautifully landscaped gardens. The day then moved on to the beautiful picturesque Serafino Wines with the bridal party being driven in two gorgeous Cadillac’s from Cadillac Dreams and Serifs own Ford muscle cars.

It was an amazing day, one that I am thrilled to have been part of.

 

Congratulations Melissa and Serif!

Beautiful Lady in waiting…..

I am lucky enough to have so many wonderful friends who are not only companions but amazing supporters of my work, my passion, my photography.

One of my dearest friends is a little camera shy to say the least, but as she is one of my biggest supporters, offered her beautiful bump to me to photograph for my portfolio. With so much gratitude, I accepted and started thinking about all the possibilities for capturing her beautiful pregnant form, while taking into consideration her feelings about photos of herself.

On the day of Suzie’s maternity session, we spent an afternoon together playing with her darling daughter and capturing amazing photos of her second pregnancy. Suzie waited with baited breath to see the images, a little nervously to say the least. Soon enough I had her images posted on facebook….the response was mind blowing….apparently a few tears of joy fell that morning!

Here is what Suzie had to say……

Just had a sneak peak of the maternity photos Wendy took of me yesterday! Her work is truly amazing! I would class myself as rather photo shy while pregnant but Wendy was just so sweet, creative and relaxing to work with that anyone thinking about capturing some special moments then definately book a session with Keepsake Photography! She certainly will capture moments to cherish. AND she took wonderful care of my 2 year old Charlotte encouraging her to participate and even take a photo or two herself! In every regard Wendy is my photographer of choice! Thanks Wendy!

 

Welcome!

2015-06-04_0001Welcome to my photography blog! Here’s where I post up-to-date news about what’s happening at Keepsake photography as well as new images from the most current photo shoots. Please contact me anytime by sending an inquiry to [email protected] or call me on 0400346463. I’d love to hear from you!

My name is Wendy and I love photography. I am a mother, a wife and the owner of Keepsake Photography. I have 2 beautiful children who give me so many reasons to smile every day. Family is something so important to me, which is why I feel it is important to get to know you,  and your family so we can work together to find a perfect time and place that will enable me to create beautiful memories for you.

My love of photography started in high school, and I planned to be a photographer “when I grew up” but a few other things happened along the way! With the births of my own children that love of photography was reignited. Photographing my own children I realised what a passion I still have for photography.

Keepsake photography by Wendy specialises in natural light portraiture. I enjoy capturing images of families, couples, children, newborns, social events and weddings. I define my photography as relaxed, fun, natural and candid with some posed elements. I love capturing kids playing, enjoying a tea party, splashing in puddles, rolling around just being a child. Looking through the camera helps you focus on the little things, especially those moments that can so quickly pass but melt your heart.

My aim is to capture memories for you, whether it’s a cheeky smile, a tender kiss, the touch of a tiny hand on yours, or the miracle of pregnancy and birth. Whatever the occasion – families together, kids playing, couples in love, maternity and newborns, candid and posed, I will capture moments in time for you to have as your keepsake.

Keepsake Photography by Wendy is based in Adelaide and services the Hills, southern areas and CBD. I can come to your home or meet you at one of my favourite locations.
