Lazy afternoons and a good novel. The perfect combination. Hope you have been managing to get through some new books, or even revisit some old favourites these holidays.

Loving this time of year, with big daily doses of sunshine and saltwater.

And the livin’ is easy.

Snuck in one last newborn shoot today before Christmas. I think that’s how we all feel. Can’t wait to just stop and put our feet up.

I love visiting families in their own homes as they welcome their new babies into their lives. And baby Isla has the most adorable nursery to spend her nights, and smitten parents to watch over her.

It was lovely to join some of the other Heartfelt photographers and spread a little Christmas cheer in the neonatal wards across the country. Tiny little hats and blankets were knitted with love and sent to us to use in our Christmas photos with the premmie babies. Not how any of the families were planning on spending their first Christmas with their babies, but they are surrounded by a whole lot of love and dedicated, hard working hospital staff.

 
Such an exciting night for the 120+ students celebrating the end of their primary school years. Friendships and memories have been made, and new adventures await. Good luck!

A sneak peek from this morning’s session with the most gorgeous Isla. Absolutely adored already X

It’s that time of year when you just can’t face another party.

“Never overlook the power of simplicity”

I came across this quote today and instantly thought back to my newborn session with baby Sav earlier this year. I finished the shoot and knew I had found my style.

All of my sessions receive a slideshow video of highlights, set to music. A great way to share your images with family and friends, those close to home and especially those far away. This one was to welcome the gorgeous baby Florence.

Some photos appeared in my feed from 4 years ago when we were living in New York and I thought I’d share them. We got to experience the magic of the incredible window displays of Macy’s and 5th Avenue. I loved just stepping back and seeing who came along into my frame.
