Their new home is getting designed and built aroun Their new home is getting designed and built around Nikko and Nikki. That’s how much these two mean to them 🏡🐾

When Amanda and Al sat down with their architect, the conversation kept going like this: “we can’t do that because the dogs will do this,” and “where are the dogs going to roam when we’re not home?”

Nikko’s the four year old golden boy who loves attention a little too much and will do absolutely anything for a piece of chicken! Nikki’s two, quick as anything, smart, and she took a few minutes to warm up to me and all the new smells in the studio before she turned her charm on for the camera. They’re chalk and cheese and complement each other so well!

Their parents have ordered a gorgeous selection of prints to go up on the walls of the new place once it’s finished soon. Living room, dining or the hallway, Amanda’s still deciding… But I can’t think of a better way to fill a brand new home!

Koah wasn’t about to let her mums have all the fun Koah wasn’t about to let her mums have all the fun...

I photographed Jayde and Cat’s wedding back in 2021, so when they came in for their maternity session it felt like catching up with old friends 🥰

Their dogs were part of both their engagement session and their wedding, so bringing Koah along for this new milestone was non-negotiable... they even thought about bringing their cat Goose too, but decided he probably wouldn’t love the experience, so he stayed home. 

Koah, on the other hand, got stuck right in... jumping all over her mums and putting her paws up on the bump every chance she got.

Because at the end of the day, your dog’s family too... so of course they belong in the photos! You’ll never have to twist my arm to include your dogs in your photos 🐾 

Would yours sit nicely, or be jumping all over you within 5 minutes?

Most people come to me wanting “a nice family phot Most people come to me wanting “a nice family photo” because the struggle is real trying to take their own 😅

And we absolutely get that one, plus a few more versions for good measure! But while I’ve got them all together, I’m not stopping there.

I’ll photograph the siblings together and individually, mum with the kids and dad with the kids. Then I love to get each parent with each child on their own, because I know the relationship Anna has with her son is a completely different thing to the one she has with her daughter, and the same goes for Jordan. 

Four separate little love stories, and they each deserve their own photo ❤️

It’s how we also end up with the big brother making his little sister laugh with bubbles, and Judd flinging his arms out because he’s simply delighted with himself. Anna being properly squeezed by her boy, and Judd gazing up at his dad, his biggest hero. 

So you walk out with the whole family, and every single relationship inside it too 😍

Zara is 1yo, and she wanted absolutely nothing to Zara is 1yo, and she wanted absolutely nothing to do with my plan 😅

She wanted the table. Then she wanted off the table. Then she wanted to be held, then definitely NOT held, and then she spotted something far more interesting happening somewhere behind me...

And this is the bit I wish more parents knew. I don’t need a one year old to sit still, because a one year old sitting still isn’t really a one year old at all. Am I right?

What I need is time and a bit of patience, and a willingness to follow her lead rather than fight it. The second you stop asking a toddler to perform, they start showing you exactly who they are.

I mean.... look at that face! That’s not a face you can ask for on command 🥰

Anna said she couldn’t believe I got these photos, and honestly, that’s one of my favourite things to hear, because it means I got the real her 🫶

Anna booked this photoshoot from the middle of a s Anna booked this photoshoot from the middle of a supermarket aisle. 😄

She’d been messaging a girlfriend that morning about what a year it had been, one of those years where you’re just getting through it… and then that night she was scrolling in bed and came across my work.

She told me later she took it as her sign. If she didn’t actually do something right then, it was never going to happen.

So we did the whole booking thing over the phone while she pushed a trolley around and apologised for squeezing past people 😅 Date locked, done, and she was back to the shopping 🛒

The thing is, she’d been meaning to do this for six years. Judd was only six weeks old when the world shut down in 2020, so all the photos she’d pictured of her firstborn never happened. 

Then Zara arrived and the window closed again, because life is busy with a family. I’d say if I had a dollar for every mum who’s told me she’s been meaning to do this, I’d be living in a mansion by now!

Anna, Jordan, Judd and Zara, thank you for a morning that was equal parts chaos and cuddles. 

Worth the wait, wasn’t it? 😘

My favourite part of photographing families is letting kids be themselves. I didn’t need him to stand still and smile, because that’s not how you get REAL photos of your kids. 

Tomorrow they get to see all the photos we created for the first time, and I cannot wait to see their reaction!

About Erica

Hi, I’m Erica. 

I’ve been a Perth family photographer since 2000, specialising in every stage of family life, from maternity to extended family sessions and every life stage in between. 

What I do goes way beyond handing over a gallery of photos as every session is guided from start to finish. From our first conversation right through to choosing and displaying your finished artwork at home. 

Whatever chapter of life you’re in, I’d love to help you tell that story.
