Spring Christmas Mini Sessions

Announcing Spring mini sessions! OCTOBER 9th & 10TH 2010*


Why have your family portraits taken in Spring? Well firstly because it’s NOT winter anymore! Yay! Secondly, because it’s not yet Summer so the jeans and sleeves you prefer to wear won’t make you sweat and you don’t have to worry about whether your legs are tanned enough or your arms are toned enough! And thirdly, it’s nearly Christmas! Oh yes it is! At the very least, October is the perfect time to have portraits made if you want an annual session to capture how your family has changed in a year – and if you have distant family who would love to see too. With that in mind, why not pop your gorgeous family on a customised Christmas card?

Which brings me to the mammoth list of things you will get for a teensy-tiny $295!

* a 30 – 45 minute photo shoot

* 5 high resolution images on CD to print unlimited copied from (can make enlargements and canvases up to 30″x40″!! That’s HUGE!) You will be given a gallery of 8-10 fully edited and polished images to choose from.

* Web-sized files of your purchased images, ideal for emailing and Facebook and any other online sharing. Cos let’s face it, if you are reading this, you are using a computer and you might be one of the majority who share their lives with friends and family over the magical internet. So files made specifically for this purpose are handy!

* 5×7 prints of each image purchased to serve as a reference for when you have your own prints made. (“Honey, were you a little purple in the face the day we had our photos done? No? Let me look at the reference print before I head back to the printer to show them their error!”)

* Especially for this offer – A custom Christmas card ON CD. You will get a file to make photo cards (a 6×4 print with your design on it) AND a file containing the design for a press printed folding card! You can choose which to get and if y0u require it assistance, you can have your press printed card design uploaded to Domayne PhotoStation online where you simply decide the size and quantity of cards you’d like and order them yourself.

Here are the designs I have on offer for this Christmas – so pretty…you know you want one!

* If there is enough demand, I will also open Saturday October 16th for more sessions.

Today I was so very lucky to meet a brand new little guy and his sweet sister. Today’s shoots were actually commissioned by a local business and so each little person had their own separate session in order to get the shots we needed.  In any case, I love meeting the people I do and love the different ways things seem to fall together. I know I have said it so many times, but I seriously have the coolest job in the world!!

Here are the stars of the day!

From Central Queensland to Tasmania, this amazing family came from the corners of the country to be together and at the same time have some family photos taken. As always, it is an honor to photograph that one special member of the family without whom, all those bright eyed children would never have come to be.  So, from a couple of  country kids up a tree to a tricky little princess who was going to do it all her way, we spent a couple of hours under the Storey Bridge capturing memories to last until the tiniest in this family reaches her great grandmother’s age. That’s the magic  – and the importance – of photography. Gold Coast & Brisbane Family Photographer

And this is what the boys had to do before they were allowed up the tree!

It’s humbling to imagine what these eyes have seen and satisfying to know that some of the best of that was with her in the park last Saturday :)

I was so lucky to photograph this beautiful family last weekend! It was our second try as my poor camera (also known as the 4th child!) suffered a fairly catastrophic failure the first time we met. Ouch. It was worth the wait though and it was so difficult to choose just a couple of images for this teaser! Thanks for a wonderful session!

This one made me smile… but I am saving my favourite family shot  to show with the completed gallery :)

I am just finishing up editing this family session and decided I had to share this series of images. I LOVE the way they are laughing with each other but I especially love they way a little boy looks at his mum. Melts your heart :)

I am so happy to finally share the ‘real’ version of the photo featured in my last post and the storyboard that goes with it. These photos were taken as a gift for the girls’ Nanna and I couldn’t share until they had been given to her!

This storyboard would make a gorgeous Mother’s Day Gift, don’t you think?? Check back soon for details of how you can get one of these for yourself! I personally had this made into an Artmount and will be offering a Mother’s Day special so you can have the same! Well, of your own kids, of course!


I am often asked why I don’t hand over all the photos I take in a session… there are lots of reasons, but mostly, it’s because I figure you didn’t really need to see one like this!

Here are a few shots from my session with this gorgeous little princess!! She really is the sweetest little soul in the world :) Enjoy!

This week has been marked by the awesomeness that is my postie knocking on my door not once, not twice but THREE times this week with parcels for MEEEEEE!! Why blog about it?? Well I’m excited and presents are good. AND it is the start of my OCF journey. OCF stands for Off Camera Flash and this week I got my reflective brolly and radio triggers which means I can use artificial light anywhere, any time and produce gorgeous portraits wherever I am! Here is the first of many; I am beyond excited to be adding another string to my bow!!

I was lucky enough to take photos of Perth photographer Kristy Mannix and her two kiddos on Sunday! We had a great session and got some awesome shots – here is a small preview!
