Maternity portraits

As you might know I have been building my new website, blog and portfolio with the help of designer Pedro Reis. The new splash page is already up at www.elinamanninen.com and everything else is on the way too. This is the first time I'm building a physical portfolio as well so it's been as much of a mental exercise as taking time to choose the photos. And I'm getting there even if sometimes the job feels huge :). The Porfolio folder is coming soon from Germany (and I'm thanking Merja Yeung from Studio Asadin for advice! ).

These were from a maternity fitness session I did the other week, we also did these beautiful portraits. All the best for the little one who is now about one week old :).

Maternity I Raskauskuvaus Helsinki

To work with this family was a bliss. A beautiful day, beautiful light, beautiful people :). I really made a new friend. And have her mother come all the way from China for the baby was so special. Everything is ready for the little one, now we only have to wait for him to arrive :).

Maternity --- äitiys

This maternity session we did in a studio - great fun (and thank you Merja again for letting me use it). Usually I do the maternity sessions at your home but a studio is now also a possibility. Just let me know when you book your time!

...

Tämän äitiyskuvauksen teimme studiossa -- hauskaa! (ja kiitos Merja vielä). Yleensä teen äitiyskuvaukset asiakkaan kotona, mutta studio on myös yksi mahdollisuus. Kerro vain varauksen yhteydessä mitä haluaisit!

Blessingway gift -- Blessingway lahja

A blessingway gift for a very special lady :). Hope you like these and all the best for the birth and the baby (and I hope to see him/her soon :) ).

...

Blessingway lahja upealle naiselle :). Toivottavasti kuvat tuovat iloa ja ihania muistoja ja kaikkea hyvää lähenevään synnytykseen!! (ja toivottavasti näen vauvan pian :) ).
