Miss R surprised her parents, as they were quite certain that she was a boy! Having a bit of a drive from just outside Melbourne, Miss R was quite keen to stay awake and look at her surroundings, and not too keen to have a sleep, however after a while, she drifted off to get some beautiful images of her and with her VERY proud parents!
I hope you enjoy the preview Mum & Dad!
Walking into my clients house for this session was an absolute treat! Not only did I get to see Miss E’s older brother, who I photographed at the same age about 2 years ago, but the furniture! I’m a tad partial to vintage style fabrics and furnishings.. as you can see in the accompanying images! Miss E was a joy to photograph, put on a show of various facial expressions and poses for me!
I hope you enjoy the preview Mum & Dad!
Well, it has happened. My baby just turned 1! Not quite sure where a year has gone, it feels like yesterday that I came home from hospital with our new baby boy.
It came to our attention when I was still pregnant, that the name we were pretty set with happened to be the brand of my husbands guitar amp. So at 10 days old I placed Ashton on top of the amp. And then at 3 months old I did again, and every month later on the 19th, on the amp when the baby. Even on a “bad day” such as teething, colds. I saw it as a document the time! So in some of the photos he’s not looking very happy with me! So much so in one, we had to put him in a box on top! So thank-you to all my “spotters” over the last year, I know it was always a scary 5-10 minutes..
Also, following a new trend, we got a cake and “ate” it… Trash The Cake… so to speak! So there was a bit of a clean up, and a BIG drink of water later, but boy… did BOTH of my children enjoy that!
So without further delay, here are some photos taken to celebrate my son’s first birthday. And a small collage of the collected AMP shots from over the last 12 months.
This weekend just gone saw me meeting up with my good friend Ben to watch his band National Guard play a small intimate ‘Boutique’ gig in Bruswick, Melbourne. And of course, to any photographers dismay, there was NO stage lighting, which created a lovely atmosphere, just not for the camera!
So excuse the quality of these image, I am promised next time the lights will be brighter

I have to say, this has to have been my favorite Maternity session to date! I usually get a little nervous going on location for Maternity sessions, however this time I must have known that we had a gorgeous setting and amazing light, not to mention a wonderful family to work with. This stunning family are expecting baby #2, and big brother is already exciting about his baby brother or sister, and already has gifts for the baby! I cannot wait to meet your little bundle and all the best for a wonderful home birth! I cannot wait to come visit you again for your newborn session!
Hope you enjoy the preview Mum & Dad!
This little guy was in a sure hurry to meet the world, born 3 weeks early, only 7 days after I met Mum & Dad for their Maternity session!
I think he knew it was Mother’s Day and that family were on their way over to see him cause he wasn’t OVERLY keen on staying asleep, but a great little model for me! Doesn’t he have the sweetest little face!
I hope you enjoy the preview Mum & Dad. Your gallery is very close by!
This was my 3rd sitting with Mr. A, and I have to say he is the strongest 10 month old I’ve ever met.
He is standing up, dancing on his feet, and as mum tell me, taking a few steps. AT 10 MONTHS! (hear that Ashton!?)
I hope you enjoy the preview Mum & Dad
I photographed Miss P’s big brother when he was also 10 days old, and then over the first year. So I was very excited to hear Mum was expecting again, and even more excited when she told me baby was a girl! I have to say P’s name is also going on my list of favorite girls names, never know, I may yet have a girl!
Miss P was a very good girl for me, slept beautifully for our session – I even caught a smile, but she did like to poke her tongue out!! I can’t wait to watch her grow over the next 12 months!
I hope you enjoy the preview Mum & Dad!
Just a small post to say Happy Mothers Day to all my mummy blog readers! I hope you were all spoilt and made a fuss of!
I was lucky to have a sleep in, woken gently to a coffee in bed! Unfortunately my 3 year old woke up a sick with tonsillitis which canceled our plans to visit my mother & grandmother, so hopefully we can meet up very very soon.
I did however head out to photograph a gorgeous newborn baby boy, and his sneak preview will be coming in a few days time 
In the meantime, here’s a slightly different image to grace the blog! Enjoy your evening, I will – I’m watching a girly movie with my lovely neighbour! xx
This little guy was the sweetest little newborn subject! After his mid morning meal, he quickly drifted off into a deep sleep and didn’t really wake properly when our session was done! Not only was he a dream to photograph, I think my blankets came home without a single soiling! Now THAT is unusual!! (haha)
I hope you enjoy the preview Mum & Dad!
