well . i am extremely honoured to be asked to be a guest blogger for the wonderful blog that is
"30 minutes in the life"..... its a really inspiring way to shoot and it really did get my creative mind going........ not only did it come at the right time...... ( i was feeling rather heavy mummy guilts for not having shot my kids for a while !! ) but also from a creative perspective..... it was a great wee challenge......... and i would like to share with you my 30 minutes in the life..........
a simple late afternoon at home..... following my kids around the property as they did what they do.....there seems to be more of my daughter than my son.... as he ran off miles away into the back paddock and is less happy about the camera in his face ... hahah .......we witnessed cuddles with the animals..... lazing in the sun...... and trying to master skateboarding.........i really enjoyed doing this... just capturing them doing what they were doing.........i can see myself doing little doco shoots of them each month.... to keep tabs on their changing looks and likes.........
here are my pics to tell the story for you .... i hope you enjoy them . xxxx

ReplyDeleteSam, so glad you could join us this month! The life you've created there for your family seems entirely beautiful. I mean, you have little goats just strolling around. How perfect is that??! (Those are goats, right? #notafarmgirl) Gorgeous shots, all of them. Thanks for joining us!
ReplyDeleteheheh they are goats mary , you are right :) i arent a farm girl either .... but we have a bit of space so wanted to have them as pets.... with our dog :)
DeleteSam, so glad you could join in with us this month. Looks like a wonderful, beautiful place!
ReplyDeletethank you so much stacey :)
DeleteThank you for joining us Same. What a great way to document family time. I love the first shot of the skateboard. I hope the broken arm didn't happen falling of one of them. The goats are so cute - I hope they don't eat everything in sight. I also love the photo of the goat in your son's arms. To darn cute. Thank you for sharing your little piece of heaven.
ReplyDeletethanks so much sharleen x believe it or not the broken arm was a soccer related incident........ thankfully the goats are still only a few weeks old and arent doing any damage yet ... but we are training them to NOT eat everything in site... heheheh it could be interesting :)
