gill maheu photography: professional lifestyle portrait photography based in Annecy, Geneva, Rhone Alpes

a few days ago i was lucky enough to be invited to take some shots of an absolutely gorgeous 5 month old baby in geneva – when i arrived he was fast asleep, i couldn’t help but get the camera out – he looked sooooooooooo sweet, and so peaceful.   after giving his lovely mum and me enough time to enjoy a coffee he woke and smiled and from then on was a total star !    we did some portraits in the sunny flat and then we all wandered over to the beautiful park and took some more photos of him cuddling his mum.  

i had a wonderful morning with them both and i can’t wait to show his mum the portraits of her little one very soon

his mum and dad have asked to keep his "gorgeousness" all to themselves and who can blame them

i hope they will enjoy the images of his early childhood for a long time to come  x

just a very quick sneak peek of divya & yann’s wedding in St Sulpice in switzerland – a fantastic day !   i’m still downloading the images but i couldn’t resist sharing this one with you

huge congratulations to a gorgeous couple with an amazing future ahead of them  x

more to come soon …

here’s part two of Joppe & Eline’s wonderful wedding in switzerland – after the ceremony in the fairytale chateau d’aigle they had arranged for two special carriages on the mountain train to take the whole wedding party up to the reception at La Domaine des Sources in the mountain village of les diablerets   -  champagne flowed and i’ll let you guess which carriage was family and which friends !   please click here to see part one of their wedding, and here for the pre wed shoot.

woohoo !   eline & joppe are home … so here’s part I of their wonderfully happy wedding at  the chateau d’aigle at the end of lake geneva.

eline & joppe are an amazing couple – they are just so full of fun and happiness that i knew it was going to be a brilliant day !   they had arranged to meet at their flat before the ceremony and when joppe arrived with eline’s beautiful bouquet the sheer happiness was just magic !   they were travelling to the chateau d’aigle in eline’s dad’s car which he’d driven down from the netherlands (wow! i want one), and after me leaning out of the window on the motorway to get a few shots we got there early enough to do some gorgeous couple shots with the chateau as a backdrop.    then they greeted their guests and everyone went inside to a beautiful old beamed room in the 13th century castle for the wedding ceremony given in both french and dutch so that their friends and family could follow.

part II and the train ride up to the mountains for the reception very soon  – promise

Mr & Mrs B thank you for allowing me to be part of your fantastic day !
