My boys

I'm so overdue for an update. So where have I been and what's been keeping me busy? Well I've photographed two weddings in the past two weeks with my beautiful friend and fellow photogie Connie and I've been a busy little bee editing lots of pics for those, some of which I will share soon. Then Liam had his 8th birthday (more pics I will share soon). Ethan's started orientation days for school (he's also doing pre-prep next year, like Liam did). And to add to it all that gorgoeus girl of mine is not sleeping a whole lot during the day anymore :( Life is busy, but busy is good.

Now it takes me a while to get personal photos edited and up here. They always get put to the back of the line (I don't get paid for doing my own kids LOL). But back in August I took the kids up to my favourite park for a quick little session. Unfortunatly afternoon sessions do not work well for Miss Amelia, so I mainly just got the boys, but that's what I needed anyway. Amelia gets lots of photos taken of her while the boys are at school and kinder, but I don't often get the chance to do them. So... long story short - here are some (kind of) recent pics of the boys. (They've both since had haircuts too).

Tanner

Remember Nikki's beautiful baby belly from a few posts back, look what it turned into. Delicious little Tanner. This little man had my heart from the minute I arrived at his home.

Nikki and Dale, thanks for welcoming me into your home for your session. Congrats again on your sweet little man, he really is just adorable. I will have your gallery up ASAP. Thanks for being patient with me while I nurse sick kids and sick self :)

Bede & Marli

CUUUUUUUTE!! What more can I say.

Was great to see you again Fiona and Keith.

My Amelia in her Baby Chilli nappies. Yep, we're a cloth bummed family, and these are some of my favourite nappies. She thinks they're pretty cool too ;)

Matisse

Sweet little Matisse. My good friends darling little daughter. Happy 1st birthday princess.

Thanks Relle. xx

Sophie & Danny | Mornington Peninsula childrens photographer

Another Saturday morning, with another gorgeous family. Meet Sophie and Danny and their mum and dad :)

Was so nice to meet you Nicola and Tim. Will send through the details for your gallery very soon.

Archer and Hugo | Mornington Peninsula childrens photographer

Meet Archer and Hugo, and their gorgeous mum and dad. Archer was one of the first newborns I photographed and I've had the pleasure of photographing him quite a bit since then, including when his gorgeous baby brother was just a bump in mums tummy, and then when he was newborn. We met up for an outdoors session and had a lot of fun. Not sure who had more fun, me or the boys :)

Tara and Rob it was great to catch up with you again and see how your beautiful family has grown. Your boys are just beautiful and it was such a pleasure to spend the morning with you all. Enjoy your sneak peek. I will have your gallery up for you very soon.

Belle and Georgie | Mornington childrens photographer

Aren't they just adorable. Dee and Trevor it was great to spend the morning with you and your beautiful girls - even if it did have a chaotic start, it turned out well :) Thanks guys, your full gallery will be up very shortly.

Nikki & Co | Mornington Peninsula Maternity Photography

Isn't Nikki's beautiful baby belly just gorgeous. I am constantly amazed at the miracles at work inside those beautiful baby bellies, and amazed that in a few more days it will be gone... just a memory. It makes me so happy to be able to capture this unique and fleeting moment in a family's life. I loved meeting you both and wish you all the very best for an easy and safe delivery of your little sweetheart into your arms. And I can't wait to hear your good news :)

Julijana | Mornington baby photographer

Isn't Julijana just a little doll. From her perfect creamy skin, her big blue eyes, those looooong lashes, and her beautiful hair... she's just so scrummy yummy! (she also lives in a house so full of light, just to seal the deal)

Toby and Jay | Mornington newborn photographer

Ahhh little baby boys. I was so happy to see this beautiful family again. I first photographed Toby when he was newborn, and now he's back with his new baby brother Jay. And what an adorable little baby he is. Those beautiful big blue eyes and that soft, fluffy, fluffy hair was just devine, and so soft it tickled my nose when I cuddled him.

It was such a pleasure to be able to capture these special early days of your growing family D and K. Congratulations again on the arrival of your beautiful new little man. You're full gallery will be up for you very shortly.

my dude... | Mornington childrens photographer

comming to visit me while I work away in the office. He popped on the Superman/Clark Kent glasses so he was all dressed and ready to be my assistant :) My little buddy who brightens my day doing his crazy little things. His Ethy-isms.

Still here... | Mornington childrens photographer

So where have I been? Just here, balancing the mummy and photographer thing as best as I can :)

August is a crazy month around here. We've had so many birthday parties (seriously FIVE the past weekend), plus Amelia's dedication. There's been school things on, everyone's been sick so I had to be a mum first again, and updates here got put to the back of the to-do list. :) Anyway, we still have a few more birthday parties to get to over the next two weeks, but it's all fun, fun, fun.

I also have had lots of deliveries of yummy, yummy things including albums. I've never shared photos of the gorgeous albums I use. They're all custom made for my gorgeous clients and they are just delish. Seriously (insert another word besides gorgous here LOL), and amazing quality. Swoon, swoon, I just love them. I'll take some photos tomorrow and share before they go out to their excited owners. But organising all of that has taken up a fair bit of time too.

I've also been organising photos to update around our house... seeing as there's a new little person in the family, what better reason for new photos hey. I love decorating with photos and creating galleries of gorgous shots that visitors as well as ourselves love to look at.

So here's a few designs of the latest updates:

These will go above our TV unit (obviously)

These will go in our bedroom. I get to lay my eyes on my gorgeous kiddos first thing every morning. Reminds me how lucky I am every day - awwww.

Miss Millie's own little gallery in her bedroom. I love this one, and just ordered the frames today so can't wait for them to arrive.

And this last one is still waiting of photos to put in it. I have ideas, I just need Melbourne's weather to co-operate with me now.

And then I still need to do the family room, boys room, enterence hall, studio, office and viewing room. Hmm I felt like I was making a dint in the list until I just typed that out LOL.

What do you think. Like them?

And upcomming this week - Jay, Toby and Julijana
