The Capital, Port-Louis

Port-Louis hasn’t changed a bit since the last time we visited. The sights and the smells are still the same. The city still remains over-crowded during the day and becomes a ghost town at night. It is hard to avoid the crowds when strolling around Port-Louis. The amount of traffic in the city is exactly like we remembered. However, it seemed actually easier to get to Port-Louis with the new road infrastructures in place now.

It’s always a pleasure to visit the Bazaar of Port-Louis: the beautiful colours of merchandise on sale, the  smell of all the spices on display and the buzzing sounds of all the bargaining happening. The pictures below have been captured using the newest addition to our family: the Sony Rx 100 II. We have been pleased with the stills this camera produces and even more with the video quality. However, the most pleasing feature when you are travelling how portable it is; hauling around a full-frame DSLR can be very taxing. I had a first hand experience when travelling through Paris, Lisbon and Barcelona recently.

A Sneak Peek at Sophia’s 2nd Birthday

We were delighted to have been given the opportunity, to once again capture this lovely family, as they celebrate the birthday of little Sophia. Much like last year, we were in awe with all the decorations and details!

Here is a sneak peek to Sophia’s 2nd birthday. Sophia has grown so much since last summer! 🙂

First Session of 2014

 This past weekend, we finally got our feet wet again. We were warmly welcomed by this little cutie’s big smile. Below is a sneak peak featuring of the photo session. This was a great opportunity to get out of the house and get our fix on, amidst one of the harshest winters we have encountered in a decade. On another note, we are still very behind in posting pictures from our recent vacation: graduate school and work have taken precedence lately.
