Cheeky Cherub

June 21, 2010

So, I had this brilliant plan today. I wanted to take Jolie out for a little photoshoot. I had these angel wings that I bought ages ago that I haven’t had a chance to use them yet, so I was going to get her to wear them and take some pictures outside. I had visions of beautiful mountains and fields and blue skies with wind blowing through her hair and beautiful backlighting….ah….it was going to be beautiful. Unfortunately, it didn’t work out that way. She had other plans. There was a standoff with the wings, so I gave up and put them on Jemma instead. LOL Jolie wasn’t having it! Meanwhile, it’s impossible to shoot your own kids by yourself. They don’t like to follow direction when it comes from their parent. ha ha So, long story short, I didn’t get anything! aaahhhhhhhhh Oh well, one day she may decide to model for me. Maybe I need to come up with some better bribes? Any suggestions? LOL Here are a couple of Jemma. Nothing special, but thought I’d share anyway. In the meantime, I’m looking forward to my much awaited newborn shoot on Saturday! Stay tuned for the sneak peek!

P.S. - Happy birthday to my wonderful husband today!!

Just for Fun

June 10, 2010

Jemma got a new teething necklace in the mail yesterday so I thought I would take a few snaps of her wearing it just for fun.  She probably should have had one ages ago, but I couldn’t find one that I liked until now.  She still has eight more teeth to go before she’s done with her first set.  LOVE this yellow necklace!  I think it matches her goldilocks quite nicely.  : )






Love you my baby!

Sneak Peek - Little Bear { Canberra Newborn Photographer }

May 23, 2010

I had another little newborn in the studio yesterday. Another boy! There seems to be a stream of boys lately. I’m not complaining, they are usually more laid back than girls and let me do whatever I want with them. : ) Here are a few from our session:





I hope you like what you see so far Bronwyn.  I loved going through his photos.  Looking forward to showing you your private gallery!  I’ll let you know when it’s ready.

I had the privilege of watching an amazing artist at work last night. She was working on some glass sculptures and I was invited to come and take some pictures for her. Such a fascinating thing to watch! Here’s a little peek at some of my fave photos I snapped whilst there:
