A Hyggelig welcome

Hyggelig (pronounced Hew-Ger-ly) is a Danish term used to describe a moment or a feeling. Without a direct translation into English, the best example would be you know that moment that brings a happy sigh and big smile? Hyggelig Photography sets out to take those little Hyggelig moments in your life and create them into your own little piece of art. Please visit our hallway galleries and recent updates to discover for yourself, then contact Janet to setup your own Hyggelig session.

Best thing about getting forced to have a new hard drive installed on your computer, is coming across old goodies! :)

How this photo makes me miss summer… Bring on some afternoon sessions in the sun!
This photo is such a Miss S portrait… dirty & happy :)

Bit spoilt – Melbourne Photographer

Posted on July 27, 2010

It was my birthday on the weekend, and I was lucky to be spoilt with great company & beautiful sunshine!… But the most exciting part was, the Husband bought me a kitten!
So we’ve added to our brood of “fur babies” we now are Ying & Yang’d… 2 dogs 2 cats, a male & female of each :)

Meet Sookieh (yes… I’m a Charlaine Harris fan!)… she’s a 12 week old Manx…. and full of love! I also got a couple of bunches of flowers… this one sent from Mum & Dad in Adelaide…. Thankyou again everyone for your lovely messages!

Meet Francie, a gorgeous little treasure I was lucky enough to photograph with Gemma from Iris Creations Photography this week.

A friend and fellow photographer Fo Carson from Bec + Fo in Brisbane put out an sos call to us when she knew that a Melbourne trip wasnt possible to capture Francie’s newborness herself.

I love this part of my job… knowing that you’ve been able to capture a moment in time that will be loved forever…

I know its been a while since I’ve posted… Such a dramatic winter this year! Lots of sickness & computer malfunctions… but we’re getting back on track! :)

My brother and his family came to visit, and I managed to get a few casual shots while we were exploring the city & collecting leaves with my niece… Michael & I even managed to babysit, was great to spend some one on one time with our niece!

Promise it wont be as long between posts next time!

Atticus is my baby, I delivered him into the world and have watch him grow up to be such a handsome young man! He is soo placid and is full of snuggles. When Ruth from Ruthless Leather & Photos said she was coming to town, I was more than happy to put my Atticus’ paw up as a model for one of her awesome collars! Make sure you check them out, handmade with leads or human cuffs to match!!! He did us proud, sat perfectly (in between quick spurts of ner ner ner im off lead your not to Scout)… Thanks again Ruth for inviting us down, and GREAT to finally meet you!!!

I first took photos of Patti when she was 16weeks
Just before she hopped on a plane back home to the Goldcoast we managed a quick session at Gemma’s studio (thanks Gem!) …
Next time I see Patti, we’ll be meeting & photographing that little bundle out in the world! Cant wait :)

Hope you love your preview, your gorgeous!

Remember Nat one of my Mumma-2b’s?  Make sure you have a look back when we photographed her growing belly from 12weeks…. 18weeks…..26weeks….. this one is a favourite… Nat’s gorgeous baby shower & her final belly session spread over three different posts, here, here & while we were waiting for his arrival here


Well the lil fella weighing over 9pounds finally arrived almost two weeks late, and after the longest labour ever, Nat your a champion!
Welcome to the world Mstr Callan… looking forward to many more cuddles & photoshoots to come!

Along with Gemma from Iris Creations, close friend & newborn photographer extraordinaire we photographed Callan on Saturday, just 9 days old…

Nat & her husband Kevin met in Paris on the Eiffel Tower, so it was only natural for us to photograph their first born beside a replica, wearing a beret Gemma had knitted especially :)

There will be a few family members worldwide checking up on their new Grandson & Nephew, to you all a big Congratulations! Enjoy your preview, & make sure your check out Gemma’s aswell…

Here’s my favourites from Saturday

Last week I had the chance to fly home for a couple of days to Adelaide, catch up on Mum’s cooking, Dad’s stories & see how my niece is growing up! Oh boy, from December to May is a long time when your niece turned 2 in March… Funny to hear her talking, and having such a huge opinion on life! Going to have to make sure next visit is not so far apart…
