Feat. big brother Harry xx

My girls were up late after a school Christmas concert and were still buzzing (as you can see ha ha) so I took them out to the footpath in front of our house for a few quick jacarandah photos before the sun set... I must try to remember to make this a tradition and do it each year!! Remind me next December please ;) 

This baby came all the way from Melbourne with his Mummy and Daddy just for some photos with me ( oh yes and also to visit their Adelaidean rellies)  ;) 

Oscar Ashley at three and a half months had the softest skin and his Dad's bright blue eyes. I'm sure both Jess and Mark are trying to claim he got his temperament from them because this is one very happy, chilled out little guy. 

These obliging friends kindly allowed me to try out my new natural light studio space and the light was so beautiful... I'm a little bit excited!! The Fullarton studio is still a work in progress so no photos of the whole space yet but I hope you'll all like these sneak peek photos and the magnificent bay windows I'm lucky enough to have. Watch this space! xx

We were lucky enough to score a beautiful spring morning for this family session at Carrick Hill. It was super spesh to be able to capture this completed family on the steps where it all began when Natalie and Mark were married.  And the kids...  <3 well the pics will hopefully speak for themselves!

This little cutie patootie comes equipped with a head full of sand coloured hair, back rolls for days, and an adorable sad face which he only pulled out for me once. Little legend!

Baby Harry ... seriously so adorable!!! Thank you Karlie and Adam for welcoming me to your home to capture these moments xx

This gorgeous baby girl had so much personality at only 13 days old! She loves to have her hands free from the wrap, she likes to make little fists with her fingers, she can really focus her eyes on you already, and she has a pouty face for the camera- too too cute!! Little Arya <3 

This session was very special to me as I've been friends with this beautiful Mamma since primary school, we were the two Amandas :) It was doubly special because two years ago almost exactly I was taking Lachlan's newborn photos. Now he is all grown up and looking after his new baby sister <3 

It was so lovely to see this family again less than two years after Owen's newborn shoot :)  

Owen and Isabella had me in cuteness overload!!

And then there were three... I photographed Melli and Jaime's wedding in December 2014 and was so thrilled to get the opportunity to capture their baby girl at three months. Such a little darling <3 

This lucky girl has two doting big brothers to keep her entertained and watch over her... and I suspect she'll be a heart breaker one day  <3 

This beautiful baby girl has made dreams come true for her Mummy, Daddy and new big brother Eddie.  

She couldn't wait to meet her family and decided to enter the world 4 weeks early... and has been completely adored ever since...  not least of all by her Aunty Mandy xox 

This gorgeous little boy was so warm and cosy in his Mummy's tummy that he got to 40 weeks, then 41 weeks and did not want to budge... in fact he only decided to make a move when he was just hours away from getting a nudge from the obstetrician ;)

Well he was worth the wait!!! ( Personally I think he was just hanging in there for me to return from my family holiday and be ready to capture him te he). Welcome, Eddie!!! And a huge congratulations to Cath and Gavin xoxoxox

This new baby boy has just entered a world of fun... the lucky thing has two older brothers to play with!!! And a wonderful Mum to boot. It was so great to meet you all, and thanks for being such great helpers and baby snugglers Jake and Connor :) 

21st November 2015   {Lake Breeze Winery, Langhorne Creek}

Wow. Just wow. This wedding day was so beautiful and so fun!! 

OK so I'll admit starting with this gorgeous bride and groom is any photographer's dream, but on top of that we had the amazing backdrop of green leafy vines at Lake Breeze Winery and rustic, native floral masterpieces everywhere you looked!

Their first dance was the best I've seen- featuring bride and groom solos and ending in a Dirty dancing style lift :) 

This couple was clearly having the best day of their lives and they just soaked up and enjoyed every minute: laughing with the cheeky lads in the bridal party, sneaking sneaky kisses even when I didn't ask them to (my favourite comment of the day was that Corrine was worried she may be getting pash rash! Luckily no Sharon Strzelecki's here!),  and just a commitment to letting their hair down and celebrating with all who were there.

Thanks so much for sharing your wedding day with me Corinne and Sam <3 

PS. If you think you are seeing double in these photos at times- you probably are! There were four sets of twins at this wedding, including two pairs of identical twins in the girls of the bridal party... the bride herself being one! So cool!!! My lovely friend Kim was the only non twin of the bridesmaids and found herself wishing she had a twin too ;)

PPS special thanks to my fabulous second shooter Sarah from Essence Studios!!

When spring had finally sprung we found some cute blossom trees to take some family photos with new addition baby George. I loved taking photos of his big brother Hugo too- he was so much fun and full of smiles for us. He also managed to stay out of the mud that wasn't too far away which was impressive!! 

This gorgeous cheeky monkey is the baby girl (until the next baby girl arrives) of my very close lifelong friends. Always so fun to do photo sessions with friends :) 

Here are some of the photos of beautiful little Hana <3

Check out the absolutely incredible big blue eyes on this new bub ... 

Henry and I felt very lucky to be able to have some photos at his home and then family photos just a stone's throw away at the Grange Jetty- my favourite jetty in Adelaide :)
