Batblog

The Batblog is where I show off my favourite Melbourne family photo shoots, share the real stories behind them, and pass on tips for parents who want better photos of their kids (without the awkward forced smiles). New posts whenever inspiration strikes, which is often.

Vee’s pregnancy shoots, a very personal project | Photobat 10 Year Highlight

Some personal projects are more personal than others. Watching Vikashni progress through the 38 weeks that she was pregnant was really special. We decided to take photos each week and that each photos was to be different, no taking the easy option and just repeating. It was a challenge to...
