As much as I love colour, I am in love with black & white photography: Monochrome, tonal, matt, sepia, muted and soft, contrasty and strong; an image for every mood. Since the […]  The crazy ones… We don’t celebrate them enough! As Apple once famously said: “Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, […]  Are you ready for the BEST Christmas gift idea ever?

May I present the Victoria Akbik Photography Gift Certificate At the time of writing this post, there’s 72 days to go till Christmas 2016. The countdown […]  Baby’s First Christmas… It was a really beautiful morning in the company of this sweet family in their home.

Oh, what a sweet set of four siblings in this family – so neatly divided with two boys and two girls. I loved each and every one of their personalities […]  Oh wow! We shared so many smiles, giggles, japes and laughs interspersed throughout this gorgeous family photo session. It was a real pleasure to share time with Mr F and his wonderful family and celebrate this time in their lives. f I always try to encourage my families to see their family photo shoot as a […]  Realising how many lovely family photo sessions from past shoots that I’ve not blogged before… I thought it was high time that I shared them. It always makes me smile remembering these times – each and every family is unique and I truly love meeting my families and getting to know them. It was a hot and […]  “A baby fills a place in your heart that you never knew was empty.” – Anon It was a joy meeting Mrs K and her husband for an at-home maternity photo shoot in the perfect setting of Saadiyat Beach Villas. We had fun making the most of the different settings within their gorgeous Villa, included some little baby momentos, basked […]  Another in my series celebrating Summer 2015… During the holidays, I love my RaFa to embrace the ethos of ‘childhood unplugged’.
