Great picture!
Abandoned! What was he off doing?
Bradley was keen for a few photos until he realised he wasn’t going to do anything exciting… the grass was too wet for that. Instead all I got was a whole pile of grumpy faces. It suited me in the end, because I love the results actually considering it was quite dark already and I got to play with some shadows![]()
These were taken with my Canon 70-200mm f2.8, which is my lens of choice for February.

What gorgeous pics! I love getting pics of my boys being grumpy… it always makes zack laugh once he’s “over” whatever it was that was making him moody to begin with!
What gorgeous photos. You have really captured a mood.
Beautiful!
I could eat up that grumpy face with a spoon.
These are amazing photos
Cool shots. The light and shadows really create the mood.
What nunu expressions, Jeanette!!!! Love the moody black and whites!
Love the mood and the post processing. Must say, at least you get moods to capture, I just get their soles of their feet as they run away. Honestly, they don’t have any love for my camera! (Except Kayli maybe when she’s in the mood for pulling funny faces)
ooo yes… so very grumpy, but fun moody black and whites.
Aaah !! Bradley Bear!
They are great!
i love that your boys are such willing subjects!
Oh lol shame man – definitely not impressed.
Totally gorgeous though
A few weeks ago, I did this boudoir-styled maternity session in the veld. This was my first boudoir-styled shoot actually, and because the farm workers were really curious about what we were up to and it was getting so very hot in the sun, we hurried it a bit. These are my favourite shots from the shoot, and they just lend themselves to monochrome and dark sepia treatments.
This first one is my absolute favourite
Huge thanks to Y for letting me put these on my blog

great pics…love how you played with the light and shadows.
Yolanda looks stunning and I”m sure she is very happy with the pics Jeanette. Really lovely!!!
Wow, they are beautiful pics. Now I’m sorry I never took photo’s whilst preggy with Logan
Miss my big belly
Superb shoot. I’m sure not many women would be keen on such shoots, but when somebody is you have to grab the opportunity with both hands.
Oh they are beautiful Jeanette.
I love the first one. Its so beautiful
Stunning stunning stunning Jeanette!!!!
Good to see new experiments. The black and white look very nice.
You could have carried (don’t remember what it’s called) to block the harsh sun and get soft shadows, isn’t it.
ooo so fun! she is a great sport out there like that. love it.!
Lovely!!!
Super pretty set. I really like these!
I hope one day you will be able to do a maternity shoot for me… when you’re on business in Cape Town!
Gorgeous!
The arrival of Nicola has been hugely anticipated in the local blogging and Twitter community, as her mommy Louisa has been blogging for years and Louisa even tweeted on her way to the hospital! I couldn’t wait to take her photos, so I took it upon myself to give Louisa a voucher for a photosession at her babyshower
(it was my first voucher that I gave out!)
And OMW she made us work hard today. When I got to Louisa’s house, she was telling me how Nicola sleeps all day and is awake all night… well she proved her mom wrong
Eventually Louisa’s mom got her to sleep!
As soon as I saw the kist in the lounge I knew I had to use it somehow!
Then as I walked out, I noticed this heirloom sewing machine that’s been passed down from daughter to daughter, so poor Louisa had to undress her again! But I think it was worth it, don’t you?

I met up with the Henriques family yesterday morning to take photos of Caleb, who is 12 days old. I ended up spending more time with his sisters, and we had quite a fun time in the garden.

Caleb was not very happy with this upset to his routine, and ended up being extremely unhappy with us all. So, I’m going back next weekend to try again, but I did manage to get some photos which I know Karen is dying to see, so here are a few photos of his older siblings (Sami who is 3, and Layla who is![]()





Cannot wait to finish the set, and get L to smile properly for the camera… and I’m determined to charm Caleb until he’s putty in my hands![]()

Beautiful girls…good luck with Caleb.
Such beautiful pictures. I am sure next week will be better.
L looks a lot like my daughter at that age. And we never EVER got her to smile for the camera, they all had to be action shots where she wasn’t aware the camera was on her.
I don’t think there are enough words for how much I love that first shot. WOW!
Oh man…how sweet is that little one.
Stunning girls!
