Grace . 6 months .

Here is beautiful Miss Grace at her 6 month session. She is growing so quickly now and changes every time I see her! One thing that remains constant though is that she is a pretty happy girl :) Here are her most recent photographs ...

Brooklyn Rose . 12 months .

This is the very first time I have experienced the joy of seeing a clients child growing up - and I love it! Tealia & Luke received their pregnancy session as a gift from a friend, and then had me back for Brooklyn's newborn session when she was 6 weeks old. Fastforward to now, and we've just finished Brooklyn's 12 month session - it was so lovely to walk into their home to see this little person toddling around and look up at me with a very cheeky smile!

We started with replicating Brooklyn's infamous piano photograph. We plan on doing this every year to show her growth against the same object.

Here is Brooklyn at 6 weeks ...

And now at 12 months ...

We began our session at home with some reading, before heading to the park for a lot of running around!

Brooklyn loved kicking around this ball - love this action shot! :)

One of my favourites - I adore this photograph!

Then we headed back home for some cuddly family portraits - including Henry of course!

Thank you so much Tealia & Luke - I had a lot of fun during our session (and at our viewing appointment last night!) - Brooklyn is such a delight! I am so happy you're pleased with the results :)

Brooklyn Rose . sneak peek .

Just one to share for now until after mum & dad see all of them next week.

Brooklyn Rose at 12 months ...

Riley Peter . 2 weeks .

Meet my newest (and probably last) little cousin - Riley Peter :) Riley joins 3 big brothers, Joshua, Alex and Jayden, a family full of beautiful boys! Riley's middle name, Peter, is for my grandfather Peter who passed away in August last year, Riley's due date was the first anniversary of my grandfathers passing, so we all think he is being carefully watched over :)

Riley was born a little early, and weighed a teeny tiny 5lb 2oz! I know these images don't clearly show his small size, but he was the tinest baby I have ever seen, and it was so much fun to photograph him!


While most people seem to grow up with their cousins around the same age as them, I have been pretty lucky to be the eldest of all of my cousins by quite a few years, and I have very clear memories of holding every single one of them as newborn babies, and spoiling them all rotten with endless cuddles. Though now that some of those newborn babies are getting drivers licences, have headed off to university or are old enough to buy beer, they're all of a sudden making me feel a lot older!

So here's my newest baby cousin ... who I will also one day see get his driver's license, go to uni and buy himself beer!

Who says newborns don't smile?!!

Look at those beautiful squishy lips!

:) Lovely little baby feet in daddy's hands

With proud big brother Jayden, who is very happy with his little brother - as long as Riley goes to bed first because he's now the youngest :)

More smiles ....

Diana & Jonny . Wedding Sneak Peek .

Diana and Jonny were married at the beautiful and very decadent Crowne Plaza at Pelican Waters on the Sunshine Coast, on August 2nd.

They had a wonderful day full of a lot of love and laughter, and I was privileged to be asked, not only to photograph their day, but to also to attend their reception as a friend.

This post is only a sneak peek for now - a full post will come once Diana and Jonny have had a chance to sit down with me and view all their images.

Jacob did such a great job of being best man ... although he wasn't too keen on having his shirt buttoned all the way up around his neck!

The Bling!

Jacob's Bling! Soccer ball cufflinks ... VERY cool :)

A full wedding image post to come soon ....
