John Mooney's Real Estate

This is the friendly team at John Mooney's Real Estate.

Double Family Portaits

Look at all those lovely smiles! These boys have lots of energy, I wish I could bottle it and drink it when I need a fix. I bet I could sell it for a fortune!

Adele and Hope

These sisters are just gorgeous, and I don't think there has ever been so much giggling in my studio. I guess that means we were having a good time. Thanks girls!

The eyes are smiling

A quick self portrait in the studio

Malakai's First Birthday and Christening Day

What a cutie in his little blue vest. Happy birthday Malakai. Hope you had lots of fun opening all your presents and whacking that pinata. I have made a great little album up for Malakai with shots of the family and his teddy bear birthday cake.

Christmas Spirit

This is my dog Max, attempting to get into the spirit of Christmas. I ended up using a photo of some bells for my Christmas cards instead, even though I think he's really cute. But I still think its too early to put up the decorations yet, so I am going to do it after the wedding on Saturday.

The Coe Family Portraits

Little Emily really made me earn my dollars on this shoot! I ended up sitting on the floor with a stuffed gecko on my head while blowing kisses. But it was all worth it!

Wheatley Family Portraits

Last time I did the Wheatley family portraits Sam was just a little baby and not running around, but he more than made up for it this time. He was making me dizzy! Baby number three is on the way, so next year I will have a new family member to add to the family shot.

Whyte Family Portraits

We spent a great hour down at the river to get these shots before everyone went out to dinner on a Friday night. A great family, they'd even hug when I asked them to!

Christmas Cut Off Dates

Don't forget that the last date for Christmas orders is the 6th of December, so if you are going to book a shoot soon make sure you have allowed enough time for me to edit and then get your orders in.

And other news just in! W're moving! Finally! We are building a new house with new studio premises. So those of you who have been lucky enough to see my bicycle and its extra special fairy lights will have to come to the new place! I am sooooo excited, I get a dishwasher and a walk in wardrobe. Hopefully we will be all good to go in January, so will do a mail out and tell everyone where we are. I might even have to do a fabulous portrait special.

Seagulls

So I finally got to have a weekend off (but only because I had a wedding canellation) and I took Craig to Sydney for his birthday. He went diving with sharks and on a sailing lesson around the harbour. I tried to take some shots at the beach on Sunday afternoon but this is the only one that I didnt delete, cause the light was not being my best friend.

Funky Blue Car

I really like these two I took at Lisa and Kane's wedding out the front of the church.

Lisa and Kane's Wedding

Lisa and Kane had their ceremony at St. Michael's Cathedral and their reception at Roseleigh Manor. You can't tell in the photos, but it was actually freezing cold and blowing a gale. We stopped on the way to Roseleigh to get some shots with the funky little blue car.

Baby Ash

A little while ago I did some pregnancy portraits for Jodie and Wayne. Things have changed a bit since then, and they have given birth to little baby Ash. Isnt he a sweeite? We have put together a beautiful album with the pregnancy shots and then shots of Ash.

Oliver

How cute is he? You could just hug him and kiss him all day long. The team where Oliver's mum works put in and got her a gift certificate from Skye Rocket Studio for when Oliver was born. Isn't that a lovely idea?

Save the Date Magnets

Ok, so you've set the date for you wedding but havent done your invitations yet. How do you make sure people know that a very important event is happening on that date? Send them out a save the date magnet to pop on their fridge so they won't forget. Use the pics from your engagement shoot so it's a great little keepsake.

The Church

This shot was from Cheree and Owen's wedding. I just liked the light.

Cheree and Owen's Wedding

Cheree and Owen were married in Temora on a beautiful but windy day. We used Cheree's parents property as our main location for the photos. The wind had a lovely time messing up the girls hair and even stealing Cheree's veil at one stage.

Jodie's Pregnancy Shoot

Jodie and Wayne had some belly shots done when Jodie was about nine months, since then she has given birth to a gorgeous little baby boy named Ash (who i will post some pics of soon!). We are going to do an album with some of the pregnancy shots and then shots of baby Ash.

Has everyone seen this ad on TV? Its from the campaign that dove is doing for real beauty.

Abbey and Coby

Ok, these two were a little bit of a challenge, but it was all worth it. They both have such beautiful eyes.
