Celebrating a birthday in style last weekend with a surprise party organised by her family and friends. So great to be able to capture photos of all her favourite people together again.

6 months old and she has perfected the lost art of relaxing on a Sunday morning.

An absolute delight to follow my 91 year old neighbour Vera to her weekly vision impaired bowling group. An avid group of bowlers enjoying some sunshine, company and exercise. And what a gorgeous support crew of carers, instructors … and the ever watchful labradors.

Two 50th birthdays and a 20 year wedding anniversary. Couldn’t have picked a more gorgeous afternoon for family and friends to get together to celebrate this triple milestone in style.

Everyone getting used to the new family dynamic.

Well, it took us a while waiting for the rain to stop so we could head to the beach, but we finally made it this afternoon for some photos. Sweet Lyla at 4 months old .

And what a difference a year makes! I’m always excited to welcome back families and see how everything has changed from those heady days of introducing a newborn into the family.
