To coincide with our first year blogiversary, it was time for us to create some fab new images. So a couple of weeks ago we had our very first professional photo shoot.

We enlisted the help of fab photographer Clare, from Little Light Studios. We decided on an urban setting to fit our love of all things Melbourne and shot in and around Seddon and Yarraville. There are so many great textures, patterns, colours and graphics in that neck of the woods, so we were spoilt for choice.

We popped in to the Invite Me store to grab some confetti balloons by Poppies for Grace. Totally gorgeous stuff in there for big and small folks. I could have spent hours in there. We did a quick stop at gorgeous local florist, Clover Flowers for some more props and we were sorted.

When we were planning our wardrobe for the shoot, I wanted to support some of my fave local brands. I wore clothes from Feather & Noise and shoes by Radical Yes. Both brands are based in Melbourne and I wear their gear nearly every day. Ava wore dresses from Cupcakes & Cola and was so excited that she got to ‘wear two new dresses!’ – too cute!

So here are some of my faves from the shoot and you’ll be seeing a lot more in the weeks to come. Clare did such an amazing job and I was so impressed with Ava too. She loved playing the part and was an absolute star! And a big thanks to my Mum too, who helped carry all the balloons, confetti, flowers, bits and bobs and bribery snacks for Miss A.
