bookings for the rest of the year




I know, its crazy, but I am pretty close to being totally booked up for the rest of the year. I have some space available in October and November but thats it. At the moment I cant take any bookings for next year as I need to wait till i get Jades daycare dates confirmed. I am normally closed for the first three weeks of January to rest and recharge after the Christmas rush. Its way too early to be thinking that far ahead, its only May, but I need to be organised!

On a totally different note I think Jade looks cute as a button in her newspaper hat, these were taken ages ago but i only found them recently. Next time i make a newspaper hat I really need to look at the text that is on the edge. In the black and white one it says "$65m boos" on her head!

jamie & zoe { on the farm }




It was a beautiful day for a visit to the farm, I think I might have to buy one for myself. Wouldnt it be fabulous to have this in my backyard for a photo session whenever I wanted? It was all looking lovely even though not very long ago it was all underwater with the floods.

jasper { twelve months old }




Bless his little cotton socks but this boy is cute! This was his one year session, he got the timber ferry for his first birthday and he thought the studio floor was a great place for pushing it around.

charlotte and will




Charlotte came to the studio for a visit and to show off her skills at standing up, she bought her big brother along but wasnt very happy about having to share the spotlight with him. 

I love the shot of the two of them together. Sibling photos with young kids are always a challenge, but i think this one rocks!

jade { eleven months old } part two






These might be the favourite images i have taken of Jade. I love the colours and her gorgeous little expressions! Daddy came along to this session to help out, but even then the smiles lasted all of five minutes and then the serious face was back on. After about ten minutes she had decided that all those leaves were much more interesting than me. End of session.

She will be turning one in less than two weeks. Unfortunatley the weather will be cold so Im not sure if I will get to do the birthday session I had planned, it might be a cake smash in the studio instead. I do have a family session booked in Albury with the fabulous Briony Hardinge and a vintage lounge, and I have been looking for the perfect outfits to wear. Still looking though.

jade { eleven months old } part one



This session almost didnt happen. I had done two location scouts to find autumn leaves and didnt have much luck, and on the day i tried to do this session ending driving all over town, so by the time i pulled up to shoot Jade was already over the whole thing. I gave up trying to find leaves and just looked to grab some shots in the last of the golden light and somehow managed to grab these just before the sun disapeared in a random park as i was driving home.
