Two questions that I get asked often are: Do I photograph older babies? and Do I shoot in colour as well as black & white? The answer to both is Yes! I love the newborn phase and because it goes by in a blink I always encourage people to do it as soon as possible but I’ll photograph babies of all ages and every stage has its own charms.
