SAQR FAMILY - My first Emirati Family

5/7/2012

0 Comments

 
I have photographed families from many different countries since I begun working as a photographer in Dubai - families from Tanzania, Iran, Bahrain, America, Norway, Ireland, England, Australia, Syria, Lebanon, Russia, India, expat and those who have grown up here, but funnily enough, never an Emirati family, until last weekend. And it was an absolute pleasure. Two adorable little girls, one 8 months, the other 4 years. And two older brothers, but just as cute at 5 & 7 years.  

We had a crazy, fun, session at their home - the girls dressed in white Dior, the boys in Kandora. We shot on a white background studio style to start with and changed to a black background half way through. I have so many adorable shots, which for cultural reasons cannot be shared. Such a shame for me, but I respect their traditions. Below is as much of a glimpse as I can give - you'll have to use your imagination for the rest.

    I am Katrina Matthews, the artist behind the images on this site and the author of this blog. 

    I am based in rural Karaka, in Franklin, South Auckland; where I have a newborn photography studio. I prefer newborns and under 1s into my studio because the temperature and setting can be controlled, but I still love the outdoors at sunset for both maternity and family portraits. The light is flattering, the skies beautiful and I find families tend to come alive at this time, resulting in natural, playful images. Not to mention the endless setting options, from client's own farms or lifestyle properties, to parks and public beaches. Uniquely your own.

    If you would like further information on my portrait sessions, simply get in touch via the contact form on this site, or email me directly at info@katrinamatthews.com
