Monthly Archives: June 2010 So I already mentioned that when I photographed the gorgeous pregnant Irina a few weeks back her husband entertained himself by taking pictures of me photographing his wife. I thought some of them were so hilarious I have to share I need to watch my facial expressions – I just keep pulling faces when I…  Tuesday is a blog day! I had such a busy and amazing week, meeting new people, discovering new things, just being happy with what I do and how everything is coming together… But I digress. Today I’m sharing a few more images from a recent maternity photography session I had with my friend and repeat… 9 comments 
Oooh Antonina I love these! Each and every one is so beautiful! I think my favorites are the first three, although I do also love those last two.. ahh! Beautiful! 
Gorgeous – love the flower bokeh in the one by the fence – great job 
…as usual your work is so great that I do not have words to say how wonderful it is… will repeat again I have never met so talent photographer as you are!!! 
These are beautiful! My favourites are 2 and 4, so different from usual maternity shots xx 
Gorgeous shots! You’re title can’t be more apt! Mama to be is just gorgeous!!

These are all really beautiful. I love the details you capture~those perfect little white & yellow flowers, gorgeous light.
[...] For your pregnancy photoshoot go for bold and bright! These two outfits will be absolutely ideal for your urban photography session (for nature-loving mums wanting a park or forest backdrop, I still prefer simple jeans and a smart maternity top). [...]
[...] I’m continuing my blog post series on how some of my all-time favourite images were achieved with this particular favourite of mine from a maternity photography session in West Dulwich. [...]  On Tuesday I was out in Bristol on The Photography Parlour G2G – a get-together of UK wedding and portrait photographers of all levels of experience with an opportunity to photograph models in vintage dresses. I enjoyed the day immensely (despite a 5am start to get to Bristol on time!). It was great watching other… 4 comments 
Hey!! I was the make-up/hair artist on the shoot. Had such a good day and glad you did too! can’t wait to see more of the photos! xxx
It’s amazing how something like this can teach you so much about yourself, your style etc… even from just looking at everyone’s photos of the same girls in different scenarios just highlights to me even more that we’re all different, even though we were photographing the same thing. I love your natural and honest style of shooting, and I truly believe that you will be a huge success. Antonina, you’re so quick with the posting! I’m still trying to choose favorites to edit haha 
I love how you define your style- I can really identify with that. I love your work btw! x
[...] leaving you with this picture I took at the Photography Parlour G2G a few weeks back. Table arrangement by Vintage Tea [...]  Did I already mention I had a pretty busy couple of weeks? I didn’t post at all last week, and this week I’m catching up and releasing bits and pieces of images that I loved creating. Here’s a sneak peek (much more to come!) from a maternity photography session with Irina. Her face would be… 1 comment
It was lovely day,fantastic job,easy communication throughout the day!!! Me and my husband enjoyed every minutes of fotosession.Thanks to you a lot)))LOL  The other week I had a pleasure of photographing the family of the fabulous image guru Mandy Lehto. But I didn’t just photograph her and her family – I spent pretty much the whole day with them, from breakfast and getting ready to the day out at the Horniman Museum. It was an experiment: can… 9 comments 
These are amazing! Wonderful memories!
Antonina, I’ve been thinking about the importance of documentation lately – of the day to day activities and of everyday life. This perfectly captures it, and I’d like to say that these photos will mean so much more to them in a few years time than the typical and traditional “smile and say cheese” family photos. Beautifully captured! 
Тоня, чудесные фотки! Чудесные лица, и так хорошо поймала. Просто великолепно! 
I agree Alex – it’s the thing with photographs, isn’t it – the more time passes, the more valuable they become.
What a fantastic idea, I love it. Great storytelling and some really funny shots too! x 
This was a great experience. And because it was totally undirected, not staged or orchestrated in any way, it really feels like ‘us’. Capturing things as they are, not made up, over-dressed, starchy or posed, is something that escapes our documentation of daily life. This was a truly amazing, easy and authentic experience. Everything felt very natural, and it shows through in the images. I loved it. We can’t wait to work with you again! 
Gorgeous… some precious moments were captured that day. What a great idea. There is a real special quality with the black and white ones. 
this looks like… ‘a day in the life of…’ i love this! 
Wow!! These area amazing photographs! I know Mandy, Uwe and the family well and this just captures them beautifully! |

Great work as usual!

Antonina, these are awesome! I love behind the scenes shots! You’ve inspired me to do one of my own – only problem is that I have no one taking any behind the scenes shots haha.
Alex, I’ll do them for you if you want
Then in exchange you’ll do some (proper ones!) for me too 
Fabulous – I love behind the scenes pics – I never have anyone along on shoots to take any though!!
I love this post!!
Love it! And love the location – where is that?
Irina’s husband isn’t too bad at all at taking photographs! Great post!
