I’ve been shooting quite a few pregnancy shots lately and all the mothers to be seem to have the perfect figure. I’m starting to expect that keeping the perfect figure during a pregnancy is a given and I’m liking the idea of the positive reassurance I keep getting!

I met Connie and her husband, Chan for the first time that day for their pregnancy shoot. Connie is a petite bundle of sunshine and Chan who kept himself occupied looking through our wedding albums, was quiet and unassuming. It is hard to believe that they both have a daughter aged 8 who unfortunately was unable to join in for the shoot because she had a basketball tournament. She must be tall and athletic!

I couldn’t help but notice the magic that would light up between the two when I wasn’t looking. Chan just couldn’t bare to stay away and keep his hands off Connie, well, not in that dirty old man sorta way, but in the most loving and adoring fashion for what seems to me is a childhood sweetheart kinda love. It was so sweet, they way they held hands or the way they hugged. Every time I wasn’t looking, he would rest his head on her shoulders and grin. And I knew there and then that all I needed to do was get them to be together, and pretend I wasn’t there. And magic happened! Connie and Chan definitely wins the title of “Most Loving Couple!”

Congrats to Connie and Chan who will be expecting a baby boy this coming Jan!

It seemed like quite awhile ago, that Steve and I took a road trip to Muar and captured the beautiful church wedding of Joanne, the daughter of a pastor, and Stephanus, a South African whose father is also a pastor. It was a match made in heaven, literally!

When Joanne had contacted me a few months back to book her pregnancy portraits with us, I was overjoyed to hear the good news and looked forward to catching up with the lovely couple! Nothing has changed much really… Joanne is still the soft-spoken, mild mannered sweet girl I met before, and Stephanus is the same old friendly self! It goes without saying, we had a fun hour at the studio and I’m looking forward to a very adorable lil girl in the next month or so!

And what could be a better gift for us at the studio than an iron and ironing board! Now these two will certainly be thought of all the time! What a perfect gift!

Congrats to Joanna and Stephanus!
