Little Sunshine Photography bio picture
  • Welcome to the blog of Little Sunshine Photography

    Thanks so much for popping by. My name is Leanne and I love to photograph babies, children and their Families. My aim is to capture the relationships that exist in families and the personalities of each of the children I photograph, always in a natural environment.

    I am based in Canberra, and frequently travel to the South Coast from Batemans Bay to Moruya for beach portrait sessions.

    If you scroll down you will find sneak peeks from my more recent sessions as well as announcements of upcoming Little Sunshine events.

    If this is your first visit and you were after information on pricing or wanting to look at my portfolio please grab a coffee and head on over to my website.

    Thanks again for visiting, I would love to capture your Family memories.......

Baby Photographer Canberra | Christmas Baby

The beautiful baby from this Maternity Session has arrived and as I bet you predicted from the images of his brother and Mum, he is completely adorable! Lucky for me he has signed up for Little Sunshine Photography’s Baby package which means he will have a session with me again at 6 and 12 months. Here he is with his adoring big brother.

My goal when capturing the addition of a newborn baby into a family is not only to capture the features of the new baby but also the Families celebration. I adore the following image as it tells the story of a doting Father. Just the moments this little guy will want remembered when he is older.

Maternity Photography Canberra | Anticipation

I had a gorgeous family in my home studio this morning to capture their anticipation of a special Christmas pressie. Waiting for a baby is such a wonderful time for a Family and an important time to capture. It was really hard to choose which images to to share as a sneak peek, especially when they were all so loving and natural in front of the camera. However, I couldn’t go past this beautiful expression given by Big Brother when I asked him to imagine his baby….

When trusted with the role of capturing such an important stage a womans life I always make sure my Maternity images are soft, dreamy and feminine. I hope the following image evokes these emotions.

Baby Photography Canberra | Capturing Simple Moments

This was a secret session as a birthday present for an adoring dad who has everything. Have I mentioned how much I love these sessions! He now has a gorgeous canvas storyboard of his 2 great loves. When I look back to how I spent the time when my babies were babies my favourite memory was the large amount of time spent snuggling on the bed. I think it is this memory which makes these sessions so special.

Baby Photography Canberra

I know having these simple moments captured will spark a memory for this Family of the wonderful time they spend doing just this, snuggling with this adorable baby admiring his gorgoeus features. I can’t think of any other artwork that can give such pleasure.
