Mia’s Christening Day | Melbourne Christening Photography

I had the honour of photographing Mia’s Christening, the beautiful Greek Orthodox Parish of St Raphael, Nicholas and Irene was a perfect backdrop to such a special occasion. Mia was on her best manners and almost didn’t shed a tear as her proud parents and family looked on.

Family gallery coming soon, watch this space!

If you are looking for a professional photographer for your little one’s Christening or Baptism day, call or email us now to book in your dates!

Petridis Family Portraits | Jelly Bean Photography, Family Portriture

What a sensational way to spend a morning by heading into town and capturing a beautiful family’s portraits.  Joanna & Alex have their hands full with these three little guys, totally full of life and personality! We spent the morning in Melbourne laughing and kidding around. Great folks, great fun!

The entire shoot can be seen here but you’ll need a password!

Julian & Melina | two beautiful friends get married

We have a little personal post today, on the weekend two beautiful friends got married. Saturday was just perfect and Julian & Melina looked stunning, simply perfect for each other. Melina gave the most impressive of bridal speech’s and had all the guests laughing!

I think this was the first wedding I have been to as a guest, my lovely wife and great friends Ben & Hannah kept laughing at me as I wasn’t quite sure what to do with myself (as I’m normally the one running around capturing these special events!) But in true form, I had to take at least one camera and captured these from the gallery.

In true form when ever I have a camera, I have to find the coolest little people in the place and of course capture their portrait.

Please note, I was not the hired professional on the day (just a guest with a camera) :0

Enjoy,  Mike

Happy Orthodox Easter 2012 | Family Photograper

To my family and friends, have an awesome easter – it’s a great time to spend with the ones you love (so we did by playing ball in the park and rocking out on the swings).

Alysia loves to go high on the swings (push daddy, push)! Oh and today was the first time she pointed to one of the many portraits on our walls and said “Aly” instead on the usual “baby”! Chuffed dad!

Soccer Boy | Melbourne Children Photography

Being a birthday boy is hard work. Loads of running around.

Kicking the ball and chasing seagulls. Eating cake, laughing and rolling on the grass.

It’s hard work when you’re four, time to take a little break while no-one is watching.

Family Portraits | Melbourne Family Portrait Photography

Capturing the personality of a child can be tricky at times, so just to make it a little harder we’ll get together 8 sisters, cousins and throw in one brother and we’ve got a lot of running around and even more fun!

Family portrait sessions are a great way to create a record of your special family, we head out on location. Some where special where we can create your special record of your family.

Tiny Jemma | Melbourne Newborn Photography

 

I had the absolute pleasure in meeting Jemma this afternoon. After a tough time coming out to meet us, she opened her eyes & gave us a beautiful big smile. Moments like these make life worth while!

Little Akaylia | Melbourne Christening Photography

Little Akaylia’s christening was such a special day. We started off with a pre-shoot at home playing around with her big brother Eli. Yaka (Nan) and Papoo came to visit & so did Nouna (god mum!) so we all got cuddles and beautiful smiles!

Soon it was time to get ready and head off to the church, so with outfits packed & a bottle on the way we headed to St. Andrews Greek Orthodox Church (Cypriot) Church in Sunshine for Akaylia’s christening.

She was such a little good girl in the Melbourne summer heat and only cried a little but soon enough she was all gorgeous smiles again.

Congratulations to Nouna Jackie!
