My son started High School yesterday- I think he was more ready than me.
One minute he's my little baby, snug and safe in my belly. Then out into the world they come and gradually bet ever so fast, they grow up, in the blink of an eye, when you weren't watching. You try to watch, not to take your eyes off, not to miss a thing, yet somehow they still manage to grow, and not only grow but grow up and probably while you were busy loading the dishwasher or just juggling all the balls in the air.
I didn't realise how much his finishing primary school was going to floor me, it really knocked the emotional wind out of me. Then yesterday in his new school uniform, with his new bag and new hair cut he is off into a new world, a world of independence and big kids, a world that will bridge him from childhood to adulthood- how scary is that for a mother who can no longer deny that her babies are growing up.
It is at these moments when I feel I've lost something that will never be again that I the most grateful to have such beautiful mementos to jog my memories such as videos, kindy artworks proudly framed in the kitchen, a handmade Mother's Day card, a favorite t-shirt that I can no longer imagine fitting him, and the photos, especially the photos.
These two gorgeous little ones brought their new brother all the way from Hong Kong to come and have Newlife photos taken. Aren't they delicious!!
While this photo here shows more of the children, it is the one below that we all loved the best (that is the parents and I). It is full of emotion, and love, and a tinsy squishy bit of reality:
Today I got this beautiful note of gratitude from one of my clients, it's always such a pleasure to receive these letters so thank you Rebekah. You can see more of Sebastian and his beautiful family on the Stories page.
Galia,
I’m so sorry for the tardy “thank you”.
We absolutely love the photos that you took of Sebastian and us. My husband was taken aback by the photos, he just loved them. I find myself staring at them so often and we’ve had so many compliments from people - so well done. I will get around to actually phoning up as I have to order some more!
Thanks for making me feel so absolutely comfortable with the pregnancy shoot and for being so accommodating when we all came out for the family shots.
Last and not least THANK YOU. We’re so glad we came to you to capture our precious bundle of bliss, Sebastian.
Regards,
Rebekah Parks

I just love the family photos from this session, the mother is just exquisite and they all look happy together. The little boy was such a gentle and well behaved pleasure to have in the studio, I hope to see them again as their family grows. www.newlifephotography.com
These photos were so loved by the client that she used them for a full page spread in her baby magazine "Bump". She loved the joy, happiness and intimacy portrayed in them and even though they are very personal images, she was not fussed to share them proudly as they are so beautiful of the relationship between her and her son and her growing family. www.newlifephotography.com
Here is another little one had the pleasure of photographing as a newborn baby as well as a toddler. Even though we mostly specialise in newborn baby photography we always love to see how the little ones are growing. www.kidzlifephotography.com
