I just wanted to put something up in the absence of other blog posts. In the interests of getting all the edits done and orders ordered, sneak previews on the blog are taking a side step for the moment. Please bear with me…
I’ve not had a proper chance to explore yet, but I hope all you Basel peeps are enjoying the Herbsmesse (Autumn fair). Here are a couple of photos that I took 6 years ago with my little Casio IXUS camera:
My last wedding of the year and it was a pretty great party! Split over two days, I took a couple of hours of photos and a few formals at the actual wedding ceremony on the Friday, then on the Saturday was the big party! This couple have such a great positive vibe together and clearly enjoyed being able to share their special day with all their friends and family. With three dresses in total (and I didn’t even get to see the third one), this bride certainly enjoyed stealing the show. I must say though, it was her beaming smile that shone the brightest.
Doves, balloons, yummy chocolates, a beer barrel and flamenco dancing certainly kept everyone entertained. Here are a few shots from the actual wedding day next to the Binningen Schloss:

Here are just a few snaps from the amazing party location of Sichtwerk, that was just over the border in Einmeldung, Germany. Check out their girls in their super cute tutu’s:

Congratulations to you both! You have a beautiful family and a really great bunch of friends. Wishing you many years of fun and laughter.
I realised just before this shoot that most of my clients these days seem to be repeat clients and it’s just like hanging out with friends for a couple of hours and having a camera play date. This family is a new family to me and it was just as easy and relaxed. We were at Wenken Park in the very bright sunshine. Our little lady was in top form and was wearing an outfit that totally matched the space where we headed to first. I’d like to say that we planned that in advance, but it was just super great luck and good styling from mom.
Here is the start of our little shoot:
What a stunner. That will be easy to see where it comes from when you see mommy:
We had a bit of a play in and round the park, climbed a tree, petted soem dogs and they mostly laughed at me doing my famous monkey impression! Then we settled down for a bit of picnic blanket time:
Playing with mommy and daddy:
Then, as usual with little ones of this age – she decided when enough was enough. Snuggles with daddy after a pretty excellent photoshoot. Well done!
This gorgeous little girl has been in front of my camera many times. She’s one of my pro’s! Mum is super organised and always brings a good range of outfits – this time was no exception. This little miss does remind me a lot of my own little girl, they are around the same age, both have dark features and are both super cheeky and cute. Adorable.
We had our shoot this time at the Beyler Museum gardens in Riehen. It was a really bright, high-contrast day that started pretty cold and fairly quickly warmed up. Dad had to pop back home to get starbunny – the favourite cuddly companion. In the meantime we started taking some photos, including a lovely bright tutu skirt:
Mostly, we had parked ourselves at the base of this giant shrub shaped like a pig which had a tonne of pretty flowers on it. Here is the look daddy got as he arrived with Starbunny:
On arriving Starbunny quickly pointed out to us that we had perhaps already been a bit too naughty!
Happy to see daddy and have Starbunny back:
Watching mummy and daddy having a hug:
Can you spot Starbunny?? He can fly!!!!
Until next year! I’m already looking forward to it.
