Check out this cute little man | Canberra Child Photographer

I photographed this little man a few weeks ago. I had a lovely time playing in the back yard with him and his Mum (who was initially a bit hesitant to be in the photos but I am so glad she decided to join in because the images are beautiful). Thank you for a fun morning.  xox

Autumn leaves in Canberra – Fun Family Portrait

I had a beautiful morning with this gorgeous, energetic family. They originate from the UK and are here for a few years just to have a different experience of living somewhere else. They wanted a Canberra feel without being too iconic. We went to one of their favourite places to play, the gardens at Old Parliament House and at this time of the year the autumn leaves are spectacular. I got so many fantastic images it was hard to choose what to share here. Hope you enjoy them.

My Beautiful Family | Canberra Family Portrait Photographer

When I was growing up I always wanted a sister. I was blessed with 3 brothers but alas I could not borrow their clothes (shallow I know). Luckily my brothers picked thier partners wisely and I now have the three most gorgeous sister-in-laws.  These images were created earlier this year when my older brother Daryn and his family passed through Canberra enroute from Tassie to Broome. It is a rare moment these days when we get together. Sadly Mum and Dad were unable to be there.

This was the first time that the Tassie crew got to meet the youngest of our clan, Ellie. My nieces Darcey and Molly were quite taken by her however my fishing obsessed nephew Jock disappeared to the lakes shore in search of carp of all fish. Yes my  dear family it has taken me a couple of months to sort through the images. The disks will be in the mail soon. In the meantime here are a few fun images.

Fun in the Sunset | Canberra Portrait Photographer

The other evening I had a fast, frantic, fun time doing some photos with my good friend and awesome photographer Hilary. We have been meaning to do this for a long time. She photographed me (portraits coming soon to my website) and I photographed her and her very energetic son. It was really hard to keep up with him. Thank god for autofocus I say.

The last time I did some portraits for Hilary was over 10 years ago. She was a final year photography student and I had just finished and she asked me to do some portraits of her for her promotional material. This was back in the day of medium format cameras, studio lighting and film and I was so nervous. Consequently I stuffed up and underexposed the film. I was too embarrassed to tell her so I got the lab to do a bit of magic and luckily we were able to pull out a shot she could use. This time I have to say I was almost as nervous but I think I got some fun images. Thank you my beautiful friend I am really excited to use the images you created of me and I hope you like these. xxx

Smiles Galore | Canberra Baby Photographer

This beautiful little one was the happiest little baby I think I have ever photographed. From the moment I got there she squealed with laughter. Oh what joy!
