Tammy, Daniel & the fabulous 3! {Adelaide Family Photographer}

Wow! Where do I start? Many years ago, before children, I used to be a childcare worker. I loved it so much! Interacting on a daily basis with these awesome little people! Anyways….. Tammy was one of my co-workers!

Fast forward 5 or 6 years and here we are today! Tammy and Daniel have had 3 adorable little people of their own! They have since moved away from good old RAdelaide, thanks to the joys of facebook, we have managed to stay in touch all this time! I was so excited when they asked if i would photograph their family!

I had such a good morning with them! It was lovely to see young Isaac again, and it was my first time meeting the girls!

Aren’t they a beautiful family?

I couldn’t decide which photos of the kids to pop up in this sneak peek.. so decided to stick with a theme… black & white!

The spunky little dude isaac! Man i loved this kid! We had a good conversation about rocks and sticks! He will love me forever as I bought some balloons for him and the girls!

Beautiful baby Bella! She was so adorable. just goo’s and gah’s and smiles all round!

Tahlia. Little miss Tahlia! Tammy warned me before the session that i would most likely have trouble with her! I can’t say that I won her over, but I’m pretty sure i became close! She didn’t really want to talk to me much, but I could see her brain ticking over, her eyes alert and watching every move i made! She is one smart little cookie!

Finally the lovely couple! Aren’t they just gorgeous!

Happy New Years! {Adelaide Photographer}

To all my fabulous clients, friends and family, I hope that you had a wonderful Christmas and New Years!

I did! It is by far my most favorite time of year! Yes it’s crazy, and busy and stressful, but it’s all about love and joy and family! What more could you ask for?

On top of the crazy-ness of Christmas, we’ve had a couple of birthday’s around here!

My beautiful Cayla Jo turned 7. it was a rather emotional day for me! Each year older, is one step that she takes further away from me. i’m no longer her world, her everything, instead I can only sit by and watch, longing to be involved as she makes the transformation from young child to young adult.

Here is a video I made for her.

Next up my baby boy turned 1! What a bitter sweet day that was. We had a joint party for him along with his little bestie who has his birthday 4 days later.

Birthday Boys!

It was so much easier getting a picture of the two of them together when they couldn’t move!

Do you think it’s mean that I laugh every.single.time I look at this photo? He WAS NOT impressed with everyone singing!

I think I must have been the most excited about blowing out the candles….. no one else seems to care! LOL

Then last, but certainly not least, my “baby” girl has just turned 3! Where these past 3 years have gone I’ll never know! She is at the age where she LOVES looking at photos of herself! I made a storyboard and have had it printed for her! She loves it.

So yes! It’s been an insane few weeks but i wouldn’t change a minute!

The Gorgeous Miss Abi! {Adelaide Child Photographer}

I was recently invited in to the home of Glen & Hayley to photograph the most divine little munchkin, Miss Abi! She is a pocket rocket to say the least! So much spirit and spunk! Exactly the way i like my 2 years olds!

We went for a little play out the back, where she quickly grew bored of me and moved on to find far more interesting things! LOL

I had so much fun with this little princess! Thank you for playing with me!
