So… here are my five things.

1 I can NEVER finish a plate of food or a drink. I have to leave a tiny morsel of something.. It is now a habit, but even when i try really hard.. i just can't do it!!! Drives my husband batty!!

2 Growing up i lived on Bogan Ave. Yep- sadly true. The first 19 years of my life. Oh dear.

3 I am a pillow flipper. Throughout the night i have to flip my pillow over to the cold side. I always thought i was the only person to do this, until i disovered there is a whole facebook group dedicated to us strange soles!

4 I hate the cold weather. It makes my skin crawl. In winter, the kids and i crank the ducted heating, Open all the windows and dress like its a hot summers day. We are extremely looking forward to our move up North in November!

5 I never cook dinner. Well... rarely. My husband loves cooking and hates mess.. where as i create LOTS of mess whilst cooking, and don't really enjoy it. It works out well for the time being. Lets hope he doesn't have a deployment in the horizon!! eeeeeeek!


There's my not-so-interesting 5 things. Now i'm going to tag Jodi Bingley, Kris Leigh , Narrelle , Sam Pearce and Kylie P .

Autumn Colours.

I did a session on Sunday for close friends our ours- Anita and Grant. They were fabulous models, and i really enjoyed our session

What is custom photography?

I often have trouble trying to explain what sets custom photographers apart from the larger Pixie type photo studios. I came across a really interesting blog tonight that really helps to explain the ins and outs of custom portraiture.

Riley.

This is my second newborn Riley for the month! I just adore newborn babies. They are by far my favourite age group to photograph, and this little guy was the most placid baby to date!! He was three days old, so he let me curl him in any position i wished. A photographers DREAM!

Sibling LOVE.

Arn't they such sweet little cherubs?

Well... this is more in tune with the reality of our days...
Ahhh... they make me laugh. I love my babies so much!!

Website news

In the last month i have been giving my website a little overhaul. I have changed my logo and colours. I have also been given the rights to use the most beautiful song as my theme. It is called "Hush" by Brianna Carpenter. The song was written for the Butterfly Appeal, raising money for the Hear and Say Centre, which helps for raise money and awarness children suffering hearing loss. I think it suits perfectly.

TWINS!!!!!

My dream came true today. I had the oppertunity to photograph twins!! They are 12 weeks old, and usually this age is quite hard. They were P-E-R-F-E-C-T!! We had the session wrapped up in just over one hour. A & M are completely gorgeous!

Just a few photos from the session.. although it is hard to narrow it down!!!

More Miss Mac!!

Isn't she just delicious. I looked after her for a few hours on Tuesday. We had some fun while my angel was napping. Then Madison arose and was so excited to see her little friend was there to play with her!! I love this age!

The Bingley Bunch!

On Sunday i spent the afternoon photo-ing the gorgeous Bingley family!! Jodi is a close friend of mine with 5 girls!! She is truly supermum! The girls were so lovely and helpful, it was such a pleasure! Here are just a few peeks from the session.

Riley.

Yesterday i had the pleasure of photographing a close friend Ree's baby boy Riley.


He is such a special little guy.. I adored capturing this brief moment of newborn-ness!

The Zoo!

Today we had a little trip into Melbourne Zoo! I was so impressed, and i really think this zoo is much better than... shh.. Sydney's Taronga.

I especially loved the Butterfly house!! Butterflies are very special to me, so i loved being around so many.

We also got a photo of Rob and I taken by Archie! :)

Mini Sessions

Today Narrelle came around to grab some shots of new faces for her portfolio. A group of my gorgeous friends came over, and I just had to grab a few shots myself!

What are little girls made of?

Sugar & Spice and all things nice,
That is what girls are made of!


Mackenzie and Madison, make me smile.

{Cocoon}

Today i had to try out my new cocoon on little Lenny! He is now four weeks old. He is just growing into a gorgeous little man!
