Jessie & Johnny were married back in November, and I’ve just realised I didn’t blog their wedding! They are an awesome couple, and I adored sharing their wedding day with them. The boys prepared in Mount Martha, while the girls were in Langwarrin. Their beautiful ceremony, photos and reception were all held at Hickenbotham of Dromana. Thanks Jessie and Johnny for trusting me with your amazing memories. xx
Meet the very gorgeous Lewis. In Australia for his first trip out to meet his grandparents and uncle. And I can tell you they just loved having him here! Sarah and Nigel, thank you so much for choosing me to capture your family while you were all together. I loved spending the afternoon with you all, being entertained by your gorgeous little boy.
I photographed Joe and Abby’s wedding last year, and I was very excited when Abby called to tell me they would be needing newborn photos. Both Abby and Joe are so calm, and Amber is every bit the same. Such a beautiful, calm, placid baby. I adored spending my morning with them all.
It’s always lovely to have families come back for more photos, and I love to see how much babies have grown over the years. I’m very lucky to have captured families from their newborn babies, through to their school years. I love it. But when a family moves away, and still makes a big trip back to have their photos done again, I am honoured. Rebecca and Brendon made the move from Bayside to Ocean Grove, and I feel so privileged to have been able to spend the afternoon with them, capturing their beautiful little family. I first photographed Charlie at about 10months of age, and he has grown into such a gorgeous little boy. This was my first time meeting Holly, and she is truly adorable. Rebecca and Brendon, you have a gorgeous family, thank you for allowing me to capture you all. 
A few months ago I donated a voucher to a fundraiser for a gorgeous little local girl Amelia (great name huh!) You can read more about Amelia, her family and her journey at her facebook page here. A beautiful mummy named Raelene, with two of the spunkiest and fun boys around, Will and Daniel, purchased the voucher, and lucky me got to spend a perfect Saturday morning at the beach with them and their cousin. Best job ever? You bet!
Raelene, thank you so much for helping me support Amelia’s Project, and for letting me meet your beautiful boys, and capture this amazing time of their lives. I hope you love your sneak peek, your full gallery details will be on their way to you very soon.
I know Christie is busting to see a sneak peek of her newest little man Campbell’s session, and I was busting to share them. Campbell was such a sweet, contented and easy going little guy for his session, and didn’t mind his big brother Coby doting on him one little bit. Campbell sure is one lucky and loved little guy. Thanks Chris and Christie, hope you love your sneak peek. Will have your full gallery ready for you very soon.
In true Melbourne style we had four seasons in one day when Natalie and Adrian were married at St Macartans Parish in Mornington followed by their reception at Stillwater at Crittenden winery. There were times when it rained, when the sun shined brightly, and there was plenty of blustery wind to go around. But all in all it was a gorgeous day, for a gorgeous couple and their beautiful family and friends. Natalie and Adrian, I loved sharing your special day with you, I hope you love your sneak peek. Your full gallery will be in it’s way to you very soon. x
As usual quite here, means very NOT quiet behind the scenes. October is crazy busy with weddings, beautiful new babes arriving, pregnant bellies, and gorgeous families. It’s great to be busy though, I am not complaining at all. With the change in weather its also a great time to start getting outdoors for some sessions too, which is exactly what we did with Davina and David’s gorgeous family. Although the weather looked a bit iffy, it played along nicely for us. Thanks Davina and David, was great to spend the morning with you all!
“Sometimes being a brother is even better than being a superhero” ~ Marc Brown
I’ve written about it before. Her bond with each of her brothers is unique, strong and unwavering. Just like their love for her. Liam is her protector. Her comfort. Her safe place to land. You can see it in her eyes. She knows he is watching her. She knows he would do anything and drop anything to be there with her and keep her safe. Her happiness and her love for him are like food for his soul. She is the baby sister he always wanted. He was born to be the biggest brother.
Ethan is her freedom. He takes her on amazing, magical adventures. With him by her side she is capable of anything. She can slay dragons, ride a magic carpet down a rainbow, climb the highest building in the world, swing through a jungle with monkeys, swim through a pool full of jelly and race fan-dangled speed machines. And she knows, without a doubt, if she should fall, if her jet-pack should fail, he will be there to catch her. Together they are laughter and cheekiness. One look from him and she can’t help but giggle. She knows there is fun to be had, mischief and trouble to create, and she knows her big brother will always be at her side, letting her discover and create, and feeding her sense of adventure, but he holds the reigns, and he will always, always pull back just that little bit to keep her safe.
And they, all three, are my heart and soul, and I never want to forget for a single minute how much love, joy and laughter they have bought into our lives.
A beautifully relaxed, peaceful moment of perfection.
