I travelled to the Sunshine Coast with my daughter yesterday as she had an appointment there (osteopath). The total highlight was being able to see my beautiful friend N – who is due to have her little BOY in a few weeks time.

Her daughter M and my M had a great time (my M loved being called Panda LOL). While they played N and I took a few quick shots. I have only edited these 2 so far N (chaos hit today) but I will add some more asap. Here is a quick sneak for you though:

I can’t wait to hear of your new arrival N and I also can’t wait to see you as a new family of 4. Take care of you xx

Isn’t it bizarre how when it comes to a wedding day we all hope for no rain. It was all looking promising on Saturday (nicely overcast – which us photographers love); but no rain in sight. For J & M’s wedding all was going so smoothly and everyone was extremely calm. We got to the beach and it was looking windy but beautiful. The sun popped out during the ceremony and then quickly went again. Then within an hour it started to pour down rain – I mean POUR! But this ended up being a gift as we were then invited to use the auditorium at the local theatre. The results were fun and stunning.

Thanks to J & M for sharing your lovely day with me and to Stephen (http://www.hybridvision.net/photolog/) for being great to work with!

Today I received some wonderful news – I found out that I have been accepted to be part of a beautiful and giving bunch of photographers!

The Australian Community of Child Photographers (ACOCP) are a group of photographers across Australia that offer photo shoots and images to families that have a stillbirth, premature baby or a child with a serious or terminal illness. To find out more please have a look at their website http://www.acocp.org.au/

I have personally been touched by a stillborn nephew – and when I heard about the ACOCP I knew I wanted to be part of this.

The best gift in life is that of giving! If you want to know more please feel free to contact myself or the ACOCP. If you are in my area please also let people know of this service.

In the meantime, here is a photograph of the sunrise I took to celebrate my nephew’s 1st birthday this year.

Today I spent a lovely spring afternoon with the D family. They consist of 3 girls + 2 boys and wow they were all so different and beautiful! I really could have spent another hour or two with these guys – they sure made my job very easy today that’s for sure!
