Baby Steps Photography | Business Awards!

There never seems to be a dull moment here at the Baby Steps headquarters and today is no exception. In fact we're very excited to have some big news to share... we have been named as a Finalist in the 2011 Parramatta Local Business Awards - Professional Services category! We are so excited, and so proud of this achievement, especially given that a large focus of the award criteria centres around customer service, an area that we are 100% committed to.

The big announcement will be made at the end of August, but to be honest, we feel as though we've already won! Thank you so much to all of our wonderful clients who took the time to vote for us and all of our supporting family and friends!

...and because a post is not a post without a photo, here is another sneek peak of gorgeous Amali from last week!!

Ridhaan | Sydney Baby Photography

Eagle eyed blog followers will have read about our recent fantastic offer with deals.com.au We had an amazing response to the offer and have really been looking forward to getting started with our special shoots. Well, today was that day, and what a way to get started!

First up was gorgeous Ridhaan. We were a little nervous about this session as Mum had told us that Ridhaan is a bit shy. Well, for someone who is usually shy with new faces we certainly got some big smiles out of this little guy. Check out this happy little face!
