Been here 2 times with both my children, one newborn and other sitting up age. Since first time me and my partner could instantly tell that Mal was a much more confident and professional photographer . She has a wonderful array of props and costumes for little ones . We'll worth every penny which last for a long long time . My frame from my fist (4 years old) still looks brand new . Great work mal
