inspiration [canberra child photographer]


Sometimes when you are walking somewhere you can just see a photo.

I was with Tracy and Brad and little Billy from a few posts down shooting a mini session for them and walked past this patch of ivy. I saw the above photo in my head.......it worked beautifully.

Thanks guys for accomodating my crazy idea....lol.

Tigers and swings






That is pretty much what happened when I met this gorgeous family. When I asked little Flynn what he could see in my camera his response after looking very hard was he could see a tiger...but not only a tiger but a giraffe and a leopard aswell...lol. He has the most fabulous imagination. His big sister Holly took me by the hand and gave me a guided tour of her house and backyard....lol and I have to say, I don't think I have ever seen a child swing as high on the swing as she did.....man I was nervous but she was loving it.

I had so much fun photographing this family and their newest addition 10 week old Daisy who has the most fabulous hair.

Thanks you Bronwyn and Deane for letting me meet your wondeful family. Enjoy your photos and I will be in contact soon with your slideshow.

Oh my lordy I have been busy






I have been flat chat this week. With the workshop with the fabulous Barb from 'Jinky Art', school going back, sessions to proof and emails to catch up on. I am slowly getting to the bottom of my pile...lol. If you have sent me an email and I haven't replied yet I seriously apologise...can you resend it as it may have been lost/missed in the chaos that was this week.

Now I have sooooooo much to share with you. Firstly the workshop....OMG it was just amazing. To meet Barb..aka..Jinky was such an honour. I will tell you I was peeing my pants as we got closer to Bungendore. I am so glad my dear friend Robyn was driving as I was so nervous. Not only about meeting Barb but all these other friends I have made online through our love of photography. Well I had nothing to worry about as they were all just so lovely. It was the best weekend and I learnt so much my head is still spinning....lol.

So the first 3 photos are some I took during the weekend.

The morning before I left to go I had a mini session with Billy from the last post and his grandparents who had flown down from Brisbane to meet him. So we headed out to Floridae to have a little session with him his Mum and Dad and his lovely grandparents. So that is the 4th photo the light was just gorgeous in this particular spot. Stay tuned for Floriade next year as I have something in mind just have to see if it will be feasible.

Tha last photo is just somehting I took yesterday of my Conor in the blue and his bestest buddy Sam...two very cheeky monkeys......lol.

So I still haven't shared any photos from the wedding I did with Robyn a few weeks ago. Unfortunately the week following thier wedding they recieved some very sad news the the grooms sister had passed away very suddenly. So the honymoon was postponed so that they could fly home to be with their family. My thoughts go out to them during this very emotional time.

I also did another session with the ACOCP yesterday. Little Kate was born at just 25 weeks and I was privelidged to meet her and her family.

So there is still lots to come aswell as 2 birthdays in the next 2 weeks.....so stay tuned.

Cheers xx

curly little Billy





Oh little Billy was just so sweet and so alert for 7 days old. He was happily staring out the window while we got ready for his session. He did finally succumb to the land of nod...but not until he pooed all over his Daddy during one of the photos.....lol. So Dad went off to get cleaned up and we continued with the session. By this time he was sound alseep so we cranked up the heat and did his nudie photos. He performed beautifully as you can see from the photos.

I had so many cuddles from this little boy and it was lovely.....gee I love my job.

Brad and Tracy enjoy your little preview I hope you like them as much as I do. I will have your slideshow ready next week.

7 day old bundle of love......




Meet little Angus.....he was not a happy camper when it came to his photos. Screamed at the thought of being naked but I was determined to get there so at the very end I did manage to snap a few photos of him in the buff.

His gorgeous big sister Audrey is a bit smitten with him though still cautious. As you would be when this noisy little being joins the house hold. You can tell though she is going to be a fabulous big sister.

Here is the much anticipated sneek peek for you Lara and JP. ENJOY!!!
