Once again we are going to be having the Australian Community of Child Photographers Exhibition. It is called Heartfelt and was held last year in Sydney and was a fabulous success. This year it moves to Melbourne and I have posted the information below. For those that are not familiar with what the ACOCP does, please check out their website www.acocp.org.au

I recently spent a weekend shooting in Melbourne and had the pleasure of meeting Mandy and her gorgeous little family. Mandy requested a low key candid family shoot, lots of sunlight and a golden field for a big wall canvas. Whilst we had cloud at times, we managed to have a lot of fun with the late afternoon sunlight and the kids were running around mum and dad the whole time. The energy was amazing and we even managed to see some kangaroos at one point. Mandy is also a photographer in Melbourne so make sure you check her out.

Thanks so much Mandy for spending the afternoon with me, your props were so sweet and I think the kids had heaps of fun!

Part two: Christine and Clinton have such a chemistry between them, it was amazing to watch them just be together. They practically forgot I was there most of the time, they were so wrapped up in their little world. Their ability to let go, trust my vision and give me a look into their souls was incredible. They were so willing to do whatever I asked so we ended up shooting for quite a while. It was a pleasure to get to know them as a couple and be a part of their energy and here is the second part of our ‘Just Because’ session together. I had so much fun capturing the streaming late afternoon sunlight, so soft and pretty. Enjoy! ps: I love Christine’s sneaky smile in the first one too hehe

Happy Valentine’s Day everyone! After carefully reading everyone’s entries in the Valentine’s Day competition and enjoying all of them, I sat back and thought about which one should win. I sat and sat and sat and thought and thought and thought…. and couldn’t decide as they were all so wonderful! So in the end I read them out to my family and there were unanimous in their choice…. the Hot Air Balloon entry over the Hunter Valley! They positively shouted it out! So thanks Cathy for your imaginative entry and I will be in touch shortly to discuss!

A big thank you to everyone for taking the time to enter and tell me your lovely stories, they made for wonderful reading and I wish you all the very best on this Valentine’s Day!

I am going to post the 2nd installment of the last lifestyle shoot so look out for that asap! Here is a sneak peek of it…..

This session is called ‘Just Because’ – no wedding, no engagement, no newborn… Just bccause two people love each other is enough to capture it forever. Christine is a photographer herself, and has recently started Pobke Photography in Canberra. I was so happy when she contacted me for a ‘Just Because’ session with her husband, Clinton. We chatted on the phone organising the shoot and threw around a heap of ideas and let me tell you, Christine is a woman of details. It was a very VERY hot day, but we managed to keep our spirits high with some wading and wine …. the shoot lasted a good 3.5hrs so I am splitting the post into two. Here is the first part, enjoy!

Firstly apologies for my blogging absence, I have received quite a few emails wondering where I am! I am moving house, to Sydney’s Eastern suburbs so its a bit chaotic here. I have at least 8 sessions I need to blog and I know K&B are dying to see their shoot so here it is!

As soon as I met this couple, I knew we were on the same page with our vision. It is so exciting for me to meet a couple that love my work and are up for anything. They bought some fabulous props for us to play with for their ‘Save the Date’ cards and don’t you just love her dress and flower! The forest where we were shooting was amazing as well. I can’t wait to shoot your wedding, which promises to be filled with so many beautiful details.
