So, when you plan to have a baby, most people get it right. The work out the dates, the say "oh yes I have my maternity leave sorted - my boss is lovely and giving me a whole year off!" You have a lovely pregnancy, an easy labour - spend some fabulous time bonding with your beautiful healthy baby while not having a worry in the world.

At least thats what the internet and the nappy adds tell you!

My Baby came at a very unplanned time. We had been trying for YEARS without success and in the end started IVF. With our history I never EVER expected it to work. Surprise Surprise it did. First time. Right in the middle of a VERY busy wedding season. PANIC.

On top of that horrendous morning sickness that saw me loose 20 kg's from throwing up for 18 weeks untill i discovered some GOOD DRUGS

On top of that our baby was diagnosed with what could have been very serious kidney and bladder issues.

On top of that I was trying to work full time

On top of that I managed to score 4 awards at the National Photography awards AND shoot a wedding in Fiji!

On top of that we were traveling up to King Eddies almost every week for scans and tests and all sorts of other things and I had to relocate to Perth 6 weeks before my due date - just in case.

Thanks goodness Sammy arrived safely, and after a small operation at 2 days old he got to come home YAY!

No Maternity leave for me as I was in High Wedding Season! I managed to get through the end of 2012 and the start of 2013 somehow and delivered some awesome images to all my fabulous wedding couples. Yes they may have been slightly later than 'normal' by a week or two, but the vast majority of people were so so pleased. We have expanded and brought in extra people to try and lower the load on my solders, and its working!

Lately we have been having a few issues with little Sammy, infections, more surgery, more infections, and 5 weeks of hospital visits and lots of antibiotics. The last lot of surgery will (cross fingers) be in a couple of weeks and then we can rest easy for a while - HOPEFULLY. This of course means we have been out of the office, back and forth to Perth again, and again...trying to work full time - and doing the work of two other people too!. (as my trusty JO JO has been swanning around in Europe. hmmmmm. ;))

Yesterday we told you all about our new studio.....

Well today it's time to meet Jo, our awesome new studio photographer!

Clare Day Photographic Design

With such a fabulous new space to offer our clients we have decided it's time to start shooting studio portraits as well as our gorgeously wonderful outdoor sessions.

But while I love photographing you all my love remains in the great outdoors, so I have entrusted the studio work to the very lovely Jo Hitchcock.

As our new in-house studio photographer extraordinaire Jo will have a giggle and a laugh while she captures life's joyful moments with you and creates beautiful artwork you will all treasure for a lifetime.

Lucky for me Jo has a pretty snazzy business brain too so she's also going to be managing the studio from now on so that I can focus on what I really love which is spending time photographing all of you :-)

Jo brings to our studio awesome shooting experience, great business sense, and a cute pommy accent.

She is one of Capture magazine's top writers so she knows the industry and through her articles has been helping photographers throughout Australia improve their business practices for several years.

Of course she will be sharing that knowledge with us too, so watch out because the Clare Day experience is about to go off the hook!!!

(We are working hard to update our image galleries so that you can check out Jo's work soon, so stay tuned!)
