When Chantal contacted me a few months ago to book her maternity shoot, I was very excited when she said that they wanted an urban feel, and that her husband Andy Hadfield wanted to go to Newtown.
Awesome!! I love Newtown… and I’ve wanted to do an urban maternity shoot for ages!! Part of the reason I love going there is the graffiti that’s continuously changing… and in fact… considering today is the World Cup 2010 Final date… I LOVED that there was actually World Cup graffiti done by Rasty on the columns!
And because she also wanted some natural scenes too… we stopped in at Emmerentia Botanical Gardens for a few photos before going home. The best of both worlds
OK enough words… how about some photos…
















I’m looking forward to meeting their little one
I’ve loaded a few more photos into an album on my Facebook Fan Page
@andyhadfield – Nice one guys.
@Jenty – Great pictures, like the settings.
Such awesome photos!
Love the photos, the graffiti is absolutley amazing
Oh wow, I love Newtown too…those shots with the graffiti are amazing!!!!!
These are unreal awesome!!!! So creative!
What a great idea.
Wow! These are gorgeous!
Great photos but I like the park ones better … softer, not to ‘harsh’ for a forthcoming new birth .. but that’s just me!
I must give you a map of Newtown – Dad got one from the office – it’s a tourist walking map
These are really awesome J! She looks beautiful against the graffiti!
Wow. First looks are really cool. Exactly what we were going for – not the traditional white background studio environment. Jozi city chic
Excited for the next round…
Simply awesome girl!
