An early morning visit to the hospital today for a Heartfelt shoot, but it did give me the opportunity to visit a friend who has been there for the last 4 weeks. Oli is such a courageous little man and fortunately has the most amazing, caring and loving extended family you could wish for. With that much love surrounding him … and those big Spiderman muscles … hopefully he will be coming home soon X

So much to love about my job.

Hunter couldn’t believe his good fortune to get a whole cake placed in front of him. He even tipped it upside down to thoroughly check whether the bottom was as good as the top.

Such a great time of year for an outdoor family photography shoot. The afternoon light is gorgeous, there are no crowds and we can do early sessions before sunset. Let me know if you would like a copy of my Welcome Guide that has all the information and to check on availability over the coming months.

When I take corporate headshots, I add a complimentary outdoor, casual shot as well. It’s usually the photo that captures the person the best and the image I love the most.

Sometimes when I photograph children I ask them to look into the lens and see whether they can see me. Sometimes I get the image back and am surprised to notice just how still and intent they become while they are searching for me.

I offer newborn sessions either in your own home, or with me in North Curl Curl. Whatever works best for your family. When I come to your home, it’s more like a lifestyle session and I capture your family where they are most comfortable and relaxed. This is a great option when you already have older siblings.

I loved shooting in this beautiful, light-filled home to capture the arrival of baby Theodore. His sisters are totally smitten already.

There are some places in life that just make you smile. I’ve been looking forward to today’s hike for many years and it didn’t disappoint. An incredibly beautiful pocket of the world.

It’s been great to have the same wonderful guide that I had when I did this hiking trip 8 years ago. We were looking at a waterfall this afternoon and we jokingly called out to him ‘now stand on your head’. And far out, that’s exactly what he did!

So very excited to just receive this news … my series of photos of my gorgeous neighbour Vera has just been awarded a Highly Commended in the Portrait section of this competition. I so love working with my 87 year old muse.

My app tells me we climbed 92 floors today. What it doesn’t measure is the heady mix of excitement and fear as we traversed several ridges during the day. Sheer drops on either side, with only the occasional cow to break your fall on the way down to the valley floor.

Six women being led up and down the mountains by a French guide. There are worse ways to spend your day.
