Bodhi | Sydney Child Photographer

A lot of you might remember Sourpuss and Smileyface that I photographed in 2010. On that morning their owner told us she’d just found out she was pregnant. Well, this absolutely gorgeous young man is what she made [with a little help from her husband]!

He wasn’t crazy keen on standing still so Dani blew some bubbles and he sat down and didn’t move for about ten minutes. He was mesmerised. He has the best expressions, doesn’t he?

When the bubbles stopped being so fascinating it was almost nap time so he took his favourite toy to the sofa to watch some Yo Gabba Gabba.

I think this boy needs an agent, don’t you reckon?

Meg - wowie! super wide eyes, he looks permanently surprised! hehe.
very cute kid and gorgeous photos :)

Sidney, yay!

I finally got to take photos of Sidney last night. The first shoot was arranged for last week but he got savaged by mosquitoes the night before. We rescheduled for Monday but it rained. So luckily we got to go ahead with it last night cause Sid’s family are emigrating to London on Saturday. Sad face.

Sid’s such a happy little boy. I brought bubbles for him and he kept saying “bubbles, yay”. When he found a stick it was “stick, yay”. When we got back to the house afterwards he had “milk, yay”. Too cute!

They’ve been living in Newtown, so we just had to walk out the door into Camperdown Park to find some great graffiti.
I love how their eyes are both looking the same direction!

He was running around …

… but he fell over a few times!

If you look closely you can see his name tattooed on his Daddy’s wrist.

Then we went to the cemetery next door to look at the big fig tree.

Stick, yay!

Then it was bedtime so it was time to go home.

Safe travels Gazza and Nomi and Sid, see you soooooon! x

Ruth[less] - It’s a long waaaay to Tipperary! Buy me a flight and I’ll shoot them for free. Or better still, send them here on a holiday ;)

Deirdre - Feck!!! I wish you lived in Tipperary! It’s great you know… lots of really cute and willing subjects to photograph. Growing up tho… Need you now to immortalise their innocence so beautifully like this!

Charlotte Reeves - What a super cute little boy! I am in love with the shot of him and his dad's arms… just perfect.

Gary - Verrrrrrryyyyyy Niiiiiiccccce

Ruth[less] - Thanks girls! I'd be a happy camper if I spent the rest of my days photographing boys like Sid. He's one cool dude :)

Jade - Well done Ruth, you is brilliant! Amazing pics! Lotsa love and xmas cheer from us xoxox jade, paul, freya and Marin xoxoxo

Katie - What an absolutely gorgeous little boy. Nicely done Ruth :)

Not dogs!

On Monday I dug out my passport, bundled my navigator and husband into the car and headed North! I wanted to photograph some cats and kids for my portfolio and I knew Dru had both, so off we went.

After some tea and cake [nom, nom!] Gracie showed us her ultra swanky cubby house and her bedroom …

… before roping Dave into a game of hide and seek while I took some photos of the cats!

Neville lurrrved attention and would’ve made a great model, but he’s got a bit of an eye infection, so we decided to save his moment in the spotlight for another day.

Wayne’s still only a kitten, but he was great. I’ve never worked with cats before. He was patient and let me dangle food and ribbon in front of his face for ages till I got the shots I wanted!

Gertie wanted in on the action too:)

When I went back outside Gracie was still running around with Dave!

Of course the fact that Dru has a young Stafford was another reason I asked myself over!!
Every kid deserves a Stafford:)

And a Saint Bernard too maybe!!

Thanks Dru and Gracie and Norman and Esme and Gertie and Neville and Wayne and Trevor for a fun afternoon!

Ruth[less] - Thanks guys :)

Kim - Really beautiful Ruthie. x

disorder - Wow, I love this set of photos..
The squishy cat face ones made me smile : )

Lofty - Great photos. Can't wait for the Neville shoot, that cat is the coolest.

Ruth[less] - Thanks mate :) I've never been to Brissie, I'll have to make the trek someday!

Katie - What gorgeous photos of a stunning family. Well done! Now, when are you coming to QLD? ;)
