Family Photography East MelbourneThe last time this family had their portraits taken was back in the ’70s! Made me think of my family portrait from the ’80s when I was a teen. There was far too much hair on everyone - especially me. Mottled back drop. Stiff smiles. Some of us standing on boxes and ladders? My mum still has this picture up - might be time for a redo. How far the family portrait has come — most of us these days are seeking something more natural and real. Three cheers for that!
And pup kept trying to sneak in the photo.

One day, the disk will fail. I have heard that soooo many times over the last few years. So, I backed up pretty often. And then… my computer died. Nooooooooo! I now know, I don’t back-up often enough - particularly the photos of my own children. The day my computer died, all my client jobs were somewhere safe, my most recent session was still on a card in my camera, but all of my personal photos from this year… Gone. Noooooooo! After days of trying to work here and there with no computer, waiting for Mr Fixit to arrive, we kept trying to get it going. Nothing. It was maybe the 87th time that I tried starting it up again (desperately hopeful) that it miraculously read the disk. I frantically copied all my treasured photos of my beautiful babelets. And then, as Dave was calling out for me to copy my emails, address book, favourites, downloads, etc… it died. And I never saw that disk again… So, HOW LUCKY AM I!!! Hooray for small miracles. I do believe my Dad is watching over me, keeping my family safe, finding me awesome parking spots in crowded shopping centres, and now, giving my computer a final hour to get my photos. Thanks a million. Now, enough rambling, I have so much work to catch up on and more backing up to do! Imogen watching the rain.

Family Photography BaysideEarly morning sun in winter is such a blessing for family portraits. This definitely suited their daughter’s delicious personality – the squealy fun of a 2yr old! I have one of those too
I do sing when required, and sometimes we get actions. Can you pick the nursery rhyme?

Melbourne Kid’s PhotographyHere is a sneaky peek-a-rooney from yesterday. Mum was very excited to see them, and I’m very excited to share - so here are some faves from my first run-through. This most sweetest little girl is a happy rascal. Only 11 months old and the wildest head of floppy old curls. How CUTE is she?
Ok, can you even believe this - how gorge! In my next life, I am SO coming back with brown eyes.

Melbourne Baby PhotographyI met a sweet little man today - such a placid munchkin. His mummy wanted to photograph this time before he loses his glorious roundness! Here he is…
And lots of loving from mum - these are the sort of pictures I wish I had of me with mine!
Some Daddy time…

Crazy Happy [Children's Portraits]Some very dear friends of ours have recently decided to move back to the UK after 5 years here. Sob! Here is a recent snap I took of their four beautiful children - wonderful friends to our kiddos.

I think it’s easy to fall into the trap of all dressing in the one colour, simply because it’s hard to visualise an alternative. However, I do believe that a little bit of planning into the colour palette that will showcase your beautiful family can produce amazing results. These will become treasured family photos after all. Hopefully the colour schemes I’ve recommended here will be a good start to nurture your creative side:)

Colour Palette 3Many people like to stick to the basics - and this can work too! N.B. Can you tell I’m having lots of fun creating these - I think I’ve missed my calling.
