I couldn’t help myself!

December 9, 2008 – 2:37 pm

We had some good friends over this morning. Mum was one of my bridesmaids (many moons ago…) and we’ve both since added 2 kids each to the mixture. Apart from my own children, of course, they would have to be the most gorgeous children ever. The daughter actually features on my website:

We’ve been trying to arrange a session with her son since he was born (he’s now 4 months old) and hadn’t quite managed, so I whipped the camera out while they were here and got some shots for her. Seriously - it would have to be the quickest, easiest session ever!  :)  He was such a darling.  And I’m adoring the photos so much I had to process a few and blog them so mum can see, even though I should be working on the pile I have waiting for me already…. (such is life)….
I hope you love them J, as much as I do.  Oh, gosh, he’s just so gorgeous - you lucky mama, you.  :)

Almost Newborn Photography

November 3, 2008 – 10:19 am

I had a session yesterday with an ‘almost newborn’ baby boy.  At 7 weeks he falls just outside of what us photographers would normally classify as a newbie.  But he was as well behaved, perhaps more so, than most newborns I’ve photographed.  He slept almost the whole time I was there, patiently putting up with the prodding and moving we subjected him to, and settling like a dream.  The only time he wasn’t feeling so patient was when he was due from cuddles and feeding from mummy.

After a quick feed we got some wide awake shots of the little guy.  It always maks me wonder what babies have to frown about so often - if only then knew how easy their life is at this point.  :)

And while he was feeding I snuck outside with his 6 year old sister, and had a bit of a play in her gorgeous cubby house.  Taking photographs of her at the same time was a good excuse to relive my childhood, even if only for a few minutes.  :)

Thank you for the lovely afternoon, Tony and Snez. You have a beautiful family, and a gorgeous house (when you’re ready to move on can you let us know :) ).  I’ll be in touch soon when your gallery is ready. I hope you enjoy these in the meantime.

I love Sundays.

October 6, 2008 – 8:14 am

And I love sunny Sundays. Yesterday was perfect. And what better way to top it off than a session with the gorgeous Ame (a dutch name pronounced ah-may - wish I knew how to add the emphasis symbol above the e for her). Her parents are from the Netherlands, having been here in Melbourne for a couple of years now. Long enough to not be surprised by our weather, and the fact that while it was perfect yesterday it is currently black as coal out and pouring with rain. We certainly chose the day well, Lian.
I had a lovely afternoon.  Ame had just turned one, which is a beautiful age, and it is always a joy (and an honour) to be asked to capture them at this stage in their lives.  They’re often quite mobile too at this age, which adds that little bit of a challenge to the task.  :)
Anyway, enough yakking from me - here’s your little sneak peak mum and dad. 

Look at those baby blues - she’s just adorable!

Playing peek-a-boo in the back yard.  We see you.  :)

And it would be a crime to live as close to the beach as they do and not head down there for a few photographs (and a bit of fun).

And I had to include this one becuase I just loved the interaction between mum and her little girl. How very precious.

Thanks for a wonderful afternoon guys.  Hope you’ve enjoyed your little peek. I can’t wait to share the rest with you.

(Oh, and I forgot to give a big shout out to this girl for my brand new profile pic. Thankyou so much, Kristen!)

Playtime

September 25, 2008 – 11:36 pm

I had a playgroup session yesterday, which was crazy but fun.  They were all gorgeous kids, which made my job much easier.
Just thought I’d quickly share a few for the mums.  I hope to get the rest of them out nice and quick for you all - but will definately let you know when the gallery is ready.
Thanks for the lovely time, mums.  It was lovely meeting you all. Will be in touch soon.

Friday’s Child

August 30, 2008 – 11:15 pm

I didn’t actually find out what day she was born on (so she could be a Wednesday’s child, or a Monday’s child…you get the gist), but this is how I spent Friday morning - photographing beautiful Miss N. So, to me, she’s Friday’s child.  :)
Thanks for being patient with me mum and dad. Newborn sessions can be over in an hour, or can last just over three (like this one). But it was definately time well spent.
Your daughter is such a sweet, precious little girl. And so beautiful (but you already know these things).  I hope you feel my work does her justice.
Here are just a few from the session to tide you over.

More to come soon.

Sneak Peak for the C Family.

August 8, 2008 – 12:33 am

I have to say I’ve had a blast editing these photos so far. Almost as much fun as I had at the session.  Your little girl is the sweetest thing ever, and it’s been a treat seeing her personality coming out in the shots.
And of course you guys aren’t too hard on the eyes either. I’m loving your together shots!  I’m going to try a few different effects with them for you, and might even throw in an odd texture or two.  :)
It was so hard to decide which pics to edit first and put up here for you, but I hope these give you a taste of things to come.

Oh - I’ve changed my mind too - I wasn’t going to add this one because it’s a tad out of focus, but it makes me smile the biggest smile every time I look at it. So I just had to share. Hope you enjoy.  :)

I’m christening the new blog with a preview.

July 24, 2008 – 9:02 pm

Yep, I’m very excited to have my new blog up.  And what better way to kick it off than with a sneak peak from my most recent session.
What a lovely family they are. I spent a bit longer there than I usually do - time just got away.  It was so nice to feel as relaxed as I was while ‘on the job’. Thank you guys.  And thanks Nanny for the biscuit.  I have a feeling I’ll be trying my own hand at them soon enough.

Hope you enjoy your little preview H & D. There’s many more to come. I can’t wait to share them all with you.  :)
