MOMENTS THAT MATTER | DECEMBER 2016

Like all holidays, it went too fast. There was missing shoes and lost entry cards into a theme park, a flat tyre, the kids winged more times than we care to remember and there was one trip to the local doctors. It also took us one hour to lug the bags and overtired kids from the terminal to the car on the way home...

But more memorably, goggles were called gaggles which lead to giggles, our little daredevil forced us to go on ALL the roller coasters where her height allowed, we won best family dancers at the kids club disco, Holly magically found us and entertained the kids every morning, and we swam, laughed, played and listened to the kids Christmas lists which changed every day. It was the best. 

And just to show that I was there and not just behind the camera…I’ve included my new favourite photo of the kids and I taken by my wonderfully talented husband who tells me he’ll me opening his own instagram account called ‘I take better photos than my wife' very soon! No doubt he'll ask me to set up the camera up and edit the photos then too...  ;)

MOMENTS THAT MATTER | NOVEMBER 2016

Every year - I look forward to and anticipate the chaos that November is for us. 
Two girls - two years & 1 week apart. I wouldn't say that we planned that very well!
But what it does mean, is that we celebrate, A LOT in November. 

This year, they turned six and eight.  It has been weeks and weeks, months even of "how many sleeps now Mum?", "Am I nearly six?", "Turning eight is better than turning six you know!"....

INTERIOR DESIGN PHOTOGRAPHY | MELBOURNE

I stepped away from my usual subjects last week and photographed a stunning home in Eltham styled by the very talented 'Alison Lewis Interiors' in Melbourne. 

Photographing such beauty not only allowed for beautiful photos but also inspired me for my own home which in turn, has my husband a little bit worried!  If you're looking for an interior designer who certainly knows what she's doing - Alison Lewis is definitely your girl. You can see more of her stylish work and get in touch with her here.

IN HOME NEWBORN AND FAMILY LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHY | MELBOURNE

Those first few days when you arrive home with your new baby feels like you're in a little love bubble doesn't it? Almost surreal, with time and routine thrown out the window while you try to soak in all that's new and magical and every moment seeming more precious than the last. 

This newborn session reminded me so much of those early days with my eldest where it was just the three of us together, lost in the wonder and excitement of being first time parents.

MOMENTS THAT MATTER | October 2016

I can't believe we are almost at the end of October already! 

Highlights from this month have included a lost 'first' tooth and visit from the tooth fairy, a  crazy dream about being chased by a corn cob on roller-skates which has since given us endless amusement and most excitedly - we have a walker! Another one. Gone are the days of putting him in one spot and keeping him there because not only has he learned to walk this month, he's also learnt to climb - on, up and around EVERYTHING! The window ledge is his new favourite standing spot as he shouts "bird, bird!" every times he sees one and given the opportunity, he can escape out the front door quicker than I could for a kid free night out!
