37 Weeks / Hong Kong Maternity Photographer

A baby is something you carry inside you for nine months, in your arms for three years and in your heart till the day you die- Mary Mason

Ms. S arrived to Hong Kong from Macau for the maternity session. In this photo she was 37 weeks...her little bub would have arrived anytime now.

They are full of love as one of my Facebook friends commented. (Yes this post is on my Facebook page!) and the photos speak for themselves.

My congratulations to both of you! See you in the newborn session!

Day 7 / Hong Kong newborn photographer

What a joy this little one brought me! Only 7 days old, little Mr. J has certainly been a wonderful newborn model. I have used vintage props (one of them is 104 years old) and I couldn't be happier having to utilize these to him. Special thanks to his mom for such a wonderful job "behind the scenes".

I took advantage of the beautiful natural light that we have today. And I couldn't tell you how beautiful it looked on his skin. Would you agree?

I love his photos I used all of them on my website. Feel free to browse the rest on my site!

Not quite sure how old this bowl is...but it sure looks vintage

Chocolat! / Hong Kong Photographer

After a wonderful lunch with my friends, we went to Vero chocolates in Fenwick Pier for the chocolate tasting. I thought I just died and went to heaven!!!! Their exquisite chocolates are to die for! I especially love their hot chocolate which is like hot, melted chocolate. Their cakes are beautiful...almost too beautiful to eat. We felt so giddy with the whole chocolate experience. I would like to thank my wonderful friends for the nice treat (it'll be my birthday on the 17th)! Ray, the manager and my dear friend Ifat ...thank you thank you for satisfying my sweet tooth:) Ahhh...life couldn't be any better ( and sweeter!).

Thank goodness I brought my camera with me so here are a few shots of the indulgence! Enjoy!

Here's to perfect chocolate....and Italian sparkling wine!

The most beautiful cakes I've ever seen!

TINY HEARTBEAT / Hong Kong Maternity Photographer

A mother's joy begins when new life is stirring inside... when a tiny heartbeat is heard for the very first time, and a playful kick reminds her that she is never alone.

-- Author Unknown

This stunning beauty couldn't look any better. Her "bebe" boy will be arriving in November and I'm just as excited and happy for her and her husband. She has that natural beauty that emanates from inside and out. All I can say is that pregnancy agrees with her. 

Good luck on your pregnancy sweets! And may you and your husband have a wonderful journey into parenthood.

JOY / Hong Kong Baby Photographer

The only joy in the world is to begin - Cesare Pavese

9 month old Ms. G. is by far one of the most joyous babies I've ever captured. She brought life throughout the session and her signature "woooohhh" sound (as evidenced from the first photo below) really reminds me of the importance of just letting go and having fun.

  

FLOWER / Hong Kong Family Photographer

Love is like a beautiful flower which I may not touch, 

but whose fragrance makes the garden a place of delight just the same. - Hellen Keller

I was looking back into my sessions from last year and I came across this beautiful, innocent image. I pondered on the innocence of this little girl as she checked the flower. We sometimes go about our days without stopping and appreciating the smallest things that matter. Thus capturing this moment is like stopping and taking a breather.

ALL GROWN UP! / Hong Kong Children Photographer

"Children are the hands by which we take hold of heaven." - Henry Ward Beecher

Time does fly. It was just yesterday when she was sleeping in my arms. Now at 19 months Ava never fails to mesmerize me.

PURPOSE PIES / Hong Kong Photographer

Ms. Shannon Ng founded "Purpose Pies" in 2009, a Christian-centered organization which aims to fight hunger, one pie at a time. For every pie you purchase, proceeds will go to charities in Hong Kong. I support organizations such as this and thus I donated my photography services to capture her pies for her Purpose pies website. I say it's a win-win situation....you get to enjoy those fabulous pies and the proceeds will go to a good cause. To see more photos of the pies I captured, please visit my Facebook page here and click the Purpose Pies album.

I thank Shannon for this opportunity. We also had a fun time during the session---taste testing the pies--had a taste of heaven :)
