another shot from Max and Ben's Sydney wedding

Back again! It is the Australian Institute of Professional Photography National Awards next week and I hoped that I could crack a cracker of a shot at Max and Ben's wedding...I love this one and really hope it does well at the Awards...The bar was a lovely place to shoot and the staff were sooo welcoming and offering if we wanted the lighting adjusted in the room...and it was WARM! :)

the very gorgeous Max & Ben

The weather was very unkind...howling winds on NO light to speak of but that didnt matter because my lovely friend Jennifer Nagy helped me with Max and Ben's wedding in Sydney and their photographs in China town...They were so lovely putting up with high winds and then the rain...and it was dark, loads of people but we have some great images of their wedding!...Here is a wee sample but I have loads more!

OK! just a couple more

Its late and its time for bed but couldnt resist a few more...Harry with mum and dad and little lilian!

What a great life I have!

busy busy busy!!!

You know sometimes you aren't that busy and you can afford to meet up with friends for lunch or a cuppa during the week and it feels decadent...no such luck for me at the moment...am flat chat with many many portraits over the last couple of weeks...Its great! I'm not complaining I LOVE it!

You get to meet some new friends and some old ones with new additions...here is a couple of pics from the very lovely Rachel and Lindsay who now have 2 cuties Abbie and Jack..It was chaos but we got some lovely happy images....here's a few!

yeeeee haaaaa!!!

I bought a house today!! After about 3 to 4 months of looking I have finally done it. I willl have enough room to work once I get the "studio" space looking great, and it will!!

It's got a very secure yard for Henry ( 4 year old) to ride his bike, play footie, the trampoline and maybe finally get ourselves a weee puppy, too!! Goodness knows how the cat will react with a new pup?!.

Over the transition which won't be for a few months I will still be working at home here in Mawson. If it all becomes too difficult to make the studio in the new place look grand before Henry and I move in then my adorable friend Billy from Mercury Telephones said I can move my business back to his spare space in Fyshwick to get over the moving bit...eeek!


...So it will be business as usual but from a different location and I AM EXCITED!!!!!

Lucky it'll all happen in "off wedding season"

love, joy & peace to all!! :)

another previous saturday in Canberra

Haley, an amazing photographer, importer in canberra is also a body builder and a winner at that...I asked her if she wouldn't mind getting me a back stage pass at the recent championships...so I went along for what I thought about an hour and ended up almost late for my portraits in the afternoon as I was SOOOO fascinated I stayed for several hours...I have 100's of images and once I go thru them all will post a few here...Here's one just to tempt you!

Saturday afternoon in Canberra

No wedding this last weekend but a gorgeous Christening. Have been Jim and Deidre's photographer since their wedding and have photographed their gorgeous looking children since then...as Deirdre says...I'm their family photographer!
