Alfie

Little Alfie has just turned one.
Last Sunday I went to Alfie's house to take some pictures for his mum and dad to mark the occasion. I had seen some beautiful pictures of him when he was just a little baby but I was totally unprepared for just how 'heartstoppingly-gorgeous' and charming this little man has become.
Many, many pictures of Alfie were taken - too many which were ridiculously hard to edit out. Therefore this blog is very long.

Here are 10 things to love about Alfie.

1. His eyes are the darkest chocolate I have ever seen
2. When he hears music or songs his little hips wiggle from side-to-side
3. He absolutely loves balls of all kinds and will sit contently in his ball pool for ages (why can't this happen in our house?)
4. It is freaky how well he spins a soccer ball for a one-year-old. Dad is very happy about this of course, but he will have to leave home early if he ever decides to play for any premier league team other than Liverpool
5. I think he likes peppa pig... but this may be out of a sense of duty, because rumour had it, he liked peppa pig and everyone decided to buy him lots of
peppa pig stuff.
6. His honey blonde hair
7. His caramel skin
8. He doesn't mind photographers and will happily pose in all sorts of places without any complaint
9. His from-the-belly, thigh-slapping laughing fits
10. He doesn't mind sharing chocolate cake with photographers either.


Happy Birthday Alfie.

Some great shots Paula, especially the one in black and white of Alfie scoffing the bun - excellent shot and expression on his face.
We have a while to go before our newborn shoot but Aisling is excited already!
