Hochzeitsfotograf Daniel Zihlmann – Fotograf Hochzeit Blog Zürich – Bern – Genf – St. Moritz – Basel – Luzern – Lausanne

Today I’d like to introduce Nicola Tristan to you! He was born just before Christmas and is the younger brother of Fiorello, I photographed about one year ago (see this blog post). It was a special pleasure for me to meet the parents again and especially Fiorello who has grown a lot in the meantime. I’m very thankful for their trust to call me again to also photograph their youngest son. It’s a sad story that shortly after the baby session with Fiorello last year it was found that he suffers from a serious disease. I was thinking a lot about this since his mum told me back then. I was really amazed to see now how everything has grown, their family, their love and Fiorello. I wish them all the strengh they need in difficult times, and a lot of love and wonderful moments with their family.

If you like to photograph babies you have to accustom to their time schedule. If they are in a good mood early in the morning, you have to get up early to take the best shots. If they want to sleep, you wait. If they want to eat, you wait. The good thing: There is no stress. You take what you get. You just have to be flexible and see what happens.

Today I was very lucky. Not only because I could photograph this baby session in my city, but especially because Lea was such a great model! Exploring everything new (the photographer and his camera) with her beautiful, big eyes. Being already 6 months old she was quite active. Moving a lot, turning from one side to the other. A challenge for a photographer. But she did great and only did get tired after 2 hours of taking pictures! Wow, I guess at the end I was more exhausted than her :-)

Thanks for being my model, Lea, and congratulations to the happy parents. It was a pleasure to meet your family!
