a new look.......... until i change my mind....again...............

well, it has been a little while since i 'blogged' ............ and i was reading some of my favourite photography blogs and thought, i think i will try my best this year, 2010, to really use this blog with some personal things aswell as clients sneak peaks......... i had such fun doing my photo - a - day for january of my little cherubs, ( the idea also came from an inspirational photographer i follow ) and i thought, well..........maybe you'd like to know what me and my kiddies are up to sometimes......... would you? i dunno ................. but i feel like sharing and i have a blog........so i can ......hehe.......... i have so many things i want to do this year, a holiday overseas is one of them, but we shall see what happens there.......... and it all lies on how much work i do this year too ....as my work/pay, is 'extra money' , so i am wanting to save as much of it as i can in order for us to do this...........a vicious circle....haha....but............ there are always things i want to do in between now and then..........courses, work shops , there is one in australia, me and a great friend ( fellow photographer) were thinking of heading over to, but then i went bought the 5D camera ! ........that cost as much as the weekend workshop over there ! hahahaha......maybe next year i will set aside some time and money to do some 'learning' .......and we all still need to learn, and keep up to date and new things......... and get inspiration !!
us creative types , most of the time it is already there, waiting to be let lose, but sometimes, we just need something to pop out and say , hey try this.......... this will get your creative juices flowing........ cos like with everything else, and lots of other jobs, i dont enjoy doing the same shots all the time.......its nice to spice it up and think out of the box and give you ( and me ) something different............therefore...new inspiration is always welcomed !
well..........this has been a wee ramble, so i will leave you with your thoughts........... thanks for following my blog, i only hope that one day i am as successful , and 'followed' as the remarkable photoblogs that i follow .
thanks for all the support, here's hoping 2010 brings many more exciting rambles ;)

a room full of cuties..........


a wee preview for this sweet little shoot , done just before xmas too..............
as always the challenge of going to peoples houses is not knowing where i can do the shoot , what sort of lighting etc i will be faced with ,and its always pleasantly surprising when i am presented with a room all to myself to use and the room was awesome, great lighting , plus the awesome chair, and everything was perfect......... perfect little posers too!!
such little darlings, i had a great time playing with each one..............
thanks for inviting me into your home cassie..... hope these tide you over for a couple of days till your cd's arrive.......
enjoy xxx

Just before christmas , i had the pleasure of photographing these little lovelies..............each one as gorgeous as the next, and so many different ages, which keeps me on my toes............;)   it was lovely and so flattering to be asked to do this shoot, as it was for an existing client....... and there is no bigger compliment than being asked to do another shoot for them , and only a couple of months later!!!  thank you kerry , for inviting me into your home, and letting me have a wee play with these munchkins.......plenty of laughs were had , thats for sure. i hope you enjoy your previews....... cd's will be couriered monday !!!

pre christmas....

well, it seems like forever since i was last blogging..... its almost 4 weeks !!! with the crazy rush for xmas shoots to get all done , it was a blur to say the least ........but with xmas over and the new year well and truly started, i can now get around to popping up some more shots from the last few shoots done right up until christmas...........
firstly i have to say , i have had a great ride the last few months, and am rather humbled that people seem to like my work that much that i was so booked up beyond belief ! i am hoping it wasnt a fleeting thing and will see this year 2010 equally as busy !! i am feeling more inspired than ever, and look forward to meeting so many more delicious little babies and kiddies with their lovely mummies............. although i may have favourite shots, from previous shoots, i adore all my babies equally and feel very privileged to be invited into your home to capture your little darlings .so , thank you !
below are a few shots from a shoot i handed over literally on xmas eve !!!! a little medley of ages, it was great fun, and i am more than happy with the results.......... so many cuties !!!!
