Thank you—for the love, the stories, and the tears


Well hello, fellow giggle-chaser,

Last week—after more than ten years—I did something I’d never done before.

I asked.

I asked if you’d share your experience of being photographed at Niddledy Noddledy.

I expected a few kind words.
What came instead took my breath away.

Dozens of heartfelt reviews came pouring in—each one brimming with memory, emotion, and love.
From mothers I met years ago—whose babies are now walking, talking, cracking jokes.
From families I’d just met last month.
From dads, grandparents, even those who hadn’t said much after the shoot—but remembered it all like it was yesterday.

Every message brought back a flood of moments.
I smiled until my cheeks ached.
I laughed out loud.
And yes—more than once, I cried.

You remembered the little things:

The soft music playing in the background.
The lullabies I hummed as I wrapped your baby.
That sunlit room where you paused to feed and breathe.
The squeals, the spills, the magic in the middle of the mess.
And how, in all that joyful chaos … we made something beautiful.

You helped me fall in love with what I do… all over again.
Not because of the pictures—but because of what they’ve meant to you.

Some of you said the shoot had become a family ritual.
Some said you never even thought you wanted photos—until you saw them.
Some called me the baby whisperer. (Still blushing.) ☺️

I remembered sessions I’d tucked away in quiet memory drawers.
You opened them.
And I’m so, so grateful.

So this is just to say:

Thank you.

Your words weren’t just reviews.

They were joy.
They were gifts.
They were reminders of why I do what I do.

In case you missed the letter last week (or meant to write but forgot), you can still share your love here:

I read every single one.
And I reply to each one too—because this isn’t just feedback.

It’s a conversation, a celebration.
One filled with warmth, nostalgia, and so much heart.

Thank you again—for letting me do this work.
For trusting me with your moments.

And for helping this little dream of mine feel like something truly special.

With love—and a grateful heart,

Suchanda

Hi, I’m Suchanda, the ♥️ behind Niddledy Noddledy 📸 —
floating, smiling, and sending a splashy THANK YOU from the deep end of my heart.

As a mother myself, I understand how quickly the precious moments of life slip by—from the quiet anticipation of maternity to the joyful chaos of childhood. For many years, I’ve had the privilege of photographing families, capturing the giggles, the mischief, and those tender moments that make your journey so special.

My sessions are designed to create a relaxed, joyful environment where expectant mothers, little ones, and even the not-so-little ones feel free to laugh, play, and just be themselves. Whether it’s the serene glow of motherhood, a cheeky toddler grin, or the way your baby holds your hand, I’m here to preserve the details you’ll treasure forever.
