Last Saturday a friend of mine alerted me to this magazine, Paradise Magazine from the Gold Coast Bulletin, July 24-25 2010. I was told that one of my photos was used in an article from that magazine. Needless to say I was a bit puzzled since to my knowledge I had not submitted any photos for competition or otherwise recently. However, when I saw the photo I recalled the conversation that I had with the author of that article who is the father of the baby I photographed about using one of my photographs in his article.

This little baby was only a few weeks old when I photographed her and she was a champ! She slept well and that certainly made my job so much easier. It’s such a buzz to see your work in print!

If you haven’t read the article yet, then grab a copy and read it. When it comes to pregnancy, birthing options, birthing centres etc, these are topics that are will strike a cord with most if not all mothers and mothers-to-be.

Best Friends {Brisbane Children Photographer}

They have been friends since they were a little over 6 weeks old. Even though they do not go to the same school, we try to keep in touch during school holidays by having sleep overs at each other’s house. My “oldest” friendship dates back to school days. So I do hope that their friendship will be long lasting. Only time can tell but in the meantime, it is important that we try to “immortalize” the friendship via memories and photos. One day the girls will look back at these photos and remember the wonders of childhood friendship!

I love experimenting with my processing so I thought I’ll post them side by side.

Spending time together {Brisbane Children Photographer}

Well, school holidays is half gone and so far I have enjoyed the “slow” mornings and the easy evenings whereby I do not have to pack lunch boxes (one of my pet hates!). Today we baked cup cakes. Last week we baked brownies but I didn’t take any photos. So I thought I better make up for it today. I am no baker that is for sure! So this version of cup cakes come from a box where you just pour the contents into a mixing and voila (well, not quite but you get my drift!). I’m only good if I can use a wok otherwise I am hopeless in the kitchen!

As you can see from the photos, the girls LOVE the icing! There was some left over but within minutes the girls made short work of it! I think I need to go on a mini diet after the school holidays. All these baking have made my jeans “shrink” a little bit!

Neither my husband nor I have green thumbs as you can see from the photos below! My daughter bought some plants a few weeks ago and planted them in pots. Let’s hope she doesn’t inherit this non-green thumbs from us or these plants will be dead soon! So I thought I better take some photos of them while they are still alive! Last week hubby sprayed the weeds so naturally they are now all dead and an ugly sight to behold! However, through my lens, I have to say that they are almost beautiful!

Now that school holidays have started maybe I should get my girls to weed the gardens in order to stop them bickering at each other (yes, right, keep dreaming!)!

ps. My daughter believes in Fairies so she wrote them a letter!

Happy Belated Birthday! {Brisbane Children’s Photographer}

Queensland is supposed to be the sunny state but lately we have been having a lot of rainy days! So naturally I was very anxious that it would rain today since it was very overcast. Anyway, I decided to take the risk and trust the weather forecast that it would not rain, just very, very overcast! Well, I am glad that I did not postpone the session! Fortunately it didn’t rain even though it was very overcast.

I photographed little D and her family 1.5 years ago and she is even more beautiful than I remembered! She has just recently celebrated her birthday. So a Happy Belated Birthday to you little D! It was such a pleasure to photograph her and she still loves to chase after birds! Here are a few images as a sneak peek. I will be in touch soon when the images are ready for viewing and ordering.

Thanks again for the opportunity to photograph all of you again!

Confirmation {Brisbane Children’s Photographer}

The day has finally arrived after weeks of preparation. Phew! All done and dusted now. It’d be another 3 years before we have to do it all over again for our younger one! At least this time, the only thing we have to buy is the shoes! As predicted it was a bit of a rush this morning. I had wanted to take some photos before we left the house but in the rush, I just didn’t have the time but I made up for it (very rush and very quickly done!) when we got to the church. Naturally we couldn’t take any photo during the service so these were all taken before and after the service. Guess tomorrow’s chore is to get the dress dry cleaned and after that put it away for 3 years!

This year my elder girl is learning how to play the violin at school. In the evenings she will sometimes “give” her little sister a little “performance”! However, she has never let her sister hold or play with her violin until this evening. She looked so adorable I just had to stop what I was doing and grab my camera to capture the moment! You couldn’t wipe the smile off my face!

It is time … {Brisbane Family Photographer}

to update the family album and that’s what I did this afternoon for this lovely family. I must say that this was my shortest session ever and that’s because there were no adorable children involved! Thank you guys for making my job easy! Here are a few images as a sneak peek. I will be in touch to arrange for your viewing and ordering session.

A New Addition {Brisbane Family Photographer}

I had the pleasure of photographing this beautiful family this afternoon. They have just welcomed little baby J into the world almost 2 weeks ago. He was such a joy to photograph! I wish I had more time with him! His sisters, J and C were no less adorable! As promised, here are a few images as a sneak peek. I will be in touch soon to arrange the viewing session.

Thank you P and V for a wonderful time this afternoon photographing your family!

Happy Easter! {Brisbane Child Photographer}

Well, the girls are in bed, the chocolates are hidden and bunny trails set! So I am ready for bed! However, before I do I just want to wish all my readers a very Happy Easter. Wherever you are I hope you and your loved ones are having a great time, enjoying the holidays, not to mention the chocolate! I know my two girls are especially the younger one. She has been asking me throughout the day today as well as yesterday when is Easter! I have to remind her that Easter is not about eating chocolates which she promptly answered me, “Yes, Mummy I know. It’s about God.” Bless her!

I don’t have any photos of Easter eggs to share but I do have some images of my cute younger one (yeah, I’m totally biased!).

She was pretending to take a photo of me using her phone!
