In another instalment of "funny things my kids say" - here's one that Master 8 delivered last week which gave us a chuckle: We were shopping for some kids clothes and ended up in Cotton On kids. They had some cool retro/band t-shirts and Master 8 was particularly taken with a "Nirvana" shirt he'd found. At that stage, he knew a grand total of ONE Nirvana song, but I was pleased with the fact that he at least knew who they were... So we bought the t-shirt and went home. Master 8 was super excited to run in and tell dad: "DADDY! I got a NEVADA t-shirt!!" Blank looks from daddy... "a what? A t-shirt about the US state?" "NEVADA! You know, the band, Nevada!" ************************* On a related note, one of miss 10's friends was in our car last week and a Nirvana song came on the Spotify list. Miss 10 was super excited to find that her friend knew the song - to which the friend replied: "Oh yeah I know this song! This is one of the first songs I ever listened to from the olden days!" Now - do you feel old?? On a stunning afternoon earlier this year, I was so privileged to capture Amanda & Jason's maternity/family session before the arrival of the newest member of their family. Such a beautiful time in their lives! The sun was absolutely amazing and we savoured every moment of it, capturing these precious memories and moments, what a gorgeous family! When baby Summer arrived, we did her newborn photography session in her home on Tamborine Mountain - she is just perfection! The soft pink tones, whites, earthy and boho elements suited her and the family just perfectly. Big brother Cruze was very proud to have his photos taken with his new baby sister - he loved watching on as we created these images of her. I also loved including their cute little dog in some of their photos. Here are some of the favourites from the day... If you enjoyed this, you might also like:

It is a crazy world we are living in right now, isn't it? Life seems so different these days but today sees us going back to some kind of normality with the kids back to school after the holidays, and after-school sport starting back up again. I must admit, I was kinda enjoying NOT having to rush around after school driving each kid to their sports activities last term! But... it will be nice to get back into a routine again. If nothing else, our days spent just staying home have meant that we have enjoyed some extra time together. The kids didn't fight or bicker as much as I thought they would (go figure!) and we have all mastered some new skills along the way. Are you ready for term 3 busy-ness again? My poor blog has been a bit neglected for a while! But its time to start catching up on some lovely sessions with some beautiful clients. Today's post is from a newborn session for little Kypros. I first met this gorgeous family when they were expecting their first little man, Lorenzo - so I was super excited to meet the newest member of the family! Sweet little Kypros was such a perfect little newborn model on the day of his session - he did everything I had planned, and more. The family brought along some crystals to incorporate in the session as well, just as we had done for Lorenzo's session 2 years earlier. Here are some of the favourites from his session: If you enjoyed this, you might also like:

There are so many photogenic little corners to escape to - ponds, trees, bridges and lawns, we were spoiled for choice at Danielle's family session! Danielle's focus was for more candid and relaxed images, where it looks as if the family didn't know the photo was being taken. I love this style myself and it always ends up being so much fun! We were also able to capture her beautiful girls in some cute poses too. Here are some of the gorgeous memories from this session: If you enjoyed this, you might also like:

Desiree, Dominique and their beautiful mum Juel joined me for a very special session at Southport. We found this lovely little spot not far from their home and the girls styled the session with blankets and pillows to help make mum feel as comfortable as possible. Little Apollo the dog pretty much stole the show though - I mean, just look at how adorable he is in his little denim outfit and his big brown eyes! I just love the way the stunning afternoon light made the perfect backdrop for these family memories. Lots of laughs, and lots of love - just the way it should be. Here are just a few of the favourites from their session: If you enjoyed this, you might also like:

Most of my family sessions involve young kids, so having a grown up family was a little different for me. But just because the kids are grown, doesn't mean the fun has to stop! I absolutely LOVE how much fun and laughter we had during this session - everyone was relaxed and happy and ready to enjoy the afternoon. And the laughter was contagious!

Life certainly has taken a bit of a turn in the last month with Covid-19 taking over all our lives - keeping us home and shutting down so many businesses - mine included. I've filled the last few weeks editing my last few sessions, finalising client orders and keeping the kids occupied during their school holidays. Last week saw the start of "Learning at Home" - so far so good! They have lots of learning apps to keep them going at the moment, but they are eager to go back to school as soon as possible! I'm keeping my sanity by making sure we have daily walks with the dogs, and continuing my running whenever possible. Also I'm having one weekly outing for groceries at the moment - its quite exciting to go to the shops and see people again! How are you staying sane during this crisis? I had the best time capturing cute little Harvey during his newborn session - his dad is a rural firefighter so I was super excited to include these elements in his session - how cute is the big smile on his face when he is sitting in his dad's hands?? What a beautiful family! Here are some of the favourites from this session: If you enjoyed this, you might also like:

Posing twins together can be a challenge, but its a challenge that has so many amazing rewards. This beautiful family are so blessed to now have FOUR boys! Here are some of the favourites from their session... How did you survive the torrential rain last week? Thankfully we had no damage - but crazy how we can go from "Please let it rain!" a few weeks ago, to us now saying: "No more, thanks, we've had enough!" Our tanks are overflowing, the grass is green again and now the humidity is back with a vengeance. The grass grew to knee high length in just over a week, and now the flies and mozzies are taking over. Are you over it now too? I always forget how inconvenient rain is, it happens so rarely! Thank goodness we were able to get the roof sheets done on the extension a few weeks ago, to catch all that extra water! I've been lucky enough to capture this gorgeous family on several occasions - and this session was all about celebrating Hunter's 6 month milestone! I totally love this age group - so smiley, so joyful and just delighted with everything! Check out those baby blue eyes and infectious smile - soo cute! For this session, we captured some fun outdoor family images, and then moved into the studio for some posed images in a new outfit (seriously how gorgeous is he in his bow tie!!) Thank you so much Felicity and Josh, I love capturing your little man as he grows! If you enjoyed this, you might also like:

A packet doesn't last too long when they're having a few each day! (Also when hubby decides he loves them too and cant stop eating them haha). So the other day the kids were playing a car-racing game on the Nintendo - I heard them giggling to each other while they were searching for a race track to try. I asked them what was so funny? Master 8 replied "Oh mummy - there's a race track named after a biscuit! Its called Monte Carlo!" Its always fabulous when clients return for another session as their little families grow... so it was amazing to catch up with Steph, Keenan and little Winter again as they awaited the arrival of their newest family member! I first met this lovely family when they were pregnant with Winter and then for her newborn session - and just look at her now! We were blessed with some gorgeous morning light on the day of the session, giving that beautiful golden glow on this stunning mum! :) Not too long after this, little Alfie arrived! Just 11 days new on the day of his session, he had a lovely snooze while we captured these memories with his family. Winter was super excited to have her photo taken with her new baby brother - love her expressions in the photos of them together!

Do you remember your 10th birthday? Being double digits is pretty cool, right? For me, I'm pretty sure that was the year that I received a camera as a present. A slim rectangular Hanimex 110, with film, in red! Anyway, missy decided that what she really wanted for her birthday was a girly shopping day! So when the big day arrived, off we went, armed with some birthday money and a list a mile long. She wanted to look at earrings, hats, chokers, clothes, a diary, shoes, swimmers, hair scrunchies, sunglasses... and so we shopped til we dropped! It was actually a great learning experience about getting value for money too, and not just throwing her cash at the first thing she saw. Surprisingly, it was over an hour before she spent her first dollar!
I loved capturing Tahlia & Peter at their maternity and newborn sessions here at Tamborine recently! Its always an honour to be part of such a special time in your life, to hear of the excitement as the big day approaches when you get to meet your little one for the first time! What beautiful moments to treasure, before their baby boy arrived! And then their little man was here! Gorgeous little Malakye was 13 days new on the day of his session - and just so perfect! Dad Peter brought along his firefighters helmet and it was lovely to be able to incorporate that part of their lives into the session.
