A friend’s son is Top 24 on Australian Idol

I am beyond excited to watch Australian Idol this year.  An old friend of mine, the beautiful Cathy, let me know that her son Luke Dickens had made it to the Top 24 on Idol and we are so thrilled.  The family are in complete shock, as is Luke and we have been waiting patient [...]

An international baby

This little guy was here for a very short time with his mummy and daddy from Canada.  His daddy was working at ANU for 3 months and mummy booked the session a few months before they arrived and they have actually just gone back to Canada today.  I have to say I was so flattered [...]

As Pretty as her Sister

I just love it when families return to me with their new little ones.  It’s so fun to spend time with the older one and see how they have grown, and just amazing to see how the family has changed.  I’ve know mum and dad for quite a while now, they are such fun, sweet [...]

Toilet humour anyone???????? Why sometimes being a woman isn’t so much fun LOL

When you have to visit a public toilet, you usually find a line of women, so you smile politely and take your place. Once it’s your turn, you check for feet under the cubicle doors. Every cubicle is occupied.> Finally, a door opens and you dash in, nearly knocking down the woman leaving the cubicle. [...]

My little guy……..getting all religious?

Fraser is obsessed with kicking the footy all the time.  And when it’s too cold or too late in the day to do so outside he has a soft footy that he kicks around inside our bedroom.  I know, that sounds weird right and we certainly have had a few things knocked over but otherwise [...]

Sneak Peek

This little guy had such a big smile, but on the day of the session we certainly had to work hard for them, especially in the family photos.  Maybe he just didn’t like my face, hehehe.  But as I promised dad on the day (he was a bit nervous we didn’t get much) everything was [...]

My Living Will

  Last night my husband and I were sitting in the family room. I said to him,‘I never want to live in a vegetative state, dependent on some machine,and fluids from a bottle to keep me alive. That would be no qualityof life at all. If that ever happens, just pull the plug.’ So he [...]

Dressing Mummies-to-be in style – business spotlight

It’s time for another local business spotlight and I am so excited to be sharing the following amazing business with you.  I adore Beck and am constantly amazed at the unique, beautiful clothing she has in her store for mummies with growing bellies.  I don’t remember such gorgeous clothing being around when I was pregnant [...]

Having their cake and eating it too

I adore this family.  They are so perfect together, so happy and grateful and full of love for each other and everyone else.  I truly see them as a family who are having their cake and eating it too.  I especially love Mummy A, she washes over you like someone you have known forever and [...]

The Tiny Russian Princess

This was a wonderful session.  The parents walked in saying their baby was quite an “angry and grumpy” little one, and that it could be from her Russian heritage LOL.  Her father is Russian and they actually live in Russia, just here in Australia to have the baby and then will be moving back in [...]
