Mia Rose - Christened 19/6/11

And all in all the day was an enthusiastic thumbs up from Jordyn..

We like to party...

Ok so that is a really lame song, but was played on the night...I do wonder about some DJ's. Needless to say, it was a great night, all the girls dolled up to celebrate with Michelle at Hotel Realm in Canberra and then have a dance after despite the cold. Can't wait for Cairns and the big day!

The Family

When my sister asked me to take photos of my nieces and nephews for Christmas I jumped at the chance. A stunning family of photogenic children, who wouldn't? Oh they are cute, but I am bias of course.  Well, the catch is that they are not the most amiable in front of a lens, for some unknown reason they are not like the rest of their generation and don't get into it..at all..unless they are pulling faces and crack themselves up. Needless to say, this is not what the family want on the wall for years to come.

Prior to the shoot we had a lovely Christmas lunch at the Hyatt. Kids well fed, tick...but the kicker was bribing the poor babies with no Christmas presents unless they comply with photographer and take some nice shots (of course this was not my bribe, my sister) I was slightly compassionate to their plight and promised to make it quick and painless....

Aunty Nat

Crazy Kids...

Now children, didn't anyone tell you if the wind changed you would be in trouble? 

Best part is they did this by themselves...lol

Hall Family

Today I had the pleasure of shooting the newest addition to the Hall family, Mia.

Unfortunately the whole family were sick, but rather than cancel we went ahead. I don't take a lot of baby photos but I do enjoy it when I get the chance. It is definitely not for the faint hearted, you would not want to be precious..I was urinated on, thrown up on and coughed on. I would not trade that for anything as the little ones are so sweet. I only wished Mia had of been able to sleep poor thing.

Comment of the day came from big sister Charli when we were in the bedroom and I quote a 4 year old here, "So, are we going to get this show on the road?" simply gorgeous!

I think you will all agree that this is one beautiful family. Enjoy! Nat

With very proud big sister Charli...

Welcome to the new blog!

It is not too often in life that you get to photograph a wedding for someone you have known for more than half of it. I have known Gemma for around 20 years now and am so happy to be able to share her special day with Michael next weekend in Bateman's Bay. I am looking forward to some serious fun with these two as I look back at the fun we had at their engagement shoot in Canberra.
