Weekend in the Country

We had another lovely weekend in Balingup on the farm with Stu's parents.   It is getting more and more gorgeous every time we visit.   It is a stunning backdrop for taking photos.  It's getting harder for me to get the boys to co-operate and let me photograph them though.

Offspring Magazine Fashion Shoot

Two weeks ago, I had the privelage of doing a children's fashion shoot for Offspring Magazine.  I had a brief meeting with Kate Durack, the editor and from the getgo I think we had the same vision for the end result.
I scoped out a perfect location, which I plan to use a lot more in future and she performed the mammoth task of co-ordinating models and stunning clothing in record time.
Even with the strong winds in the afternoon, the weather Gods were pretty kind to us and I think the shoot was a success!
I am so thankful to my assistants Tracey Berkmortel (a talented photographer in her own right), Sheree Conacher, for the hilarious lengths she went to put smiles on the kiddies faces, and Simon Blears for taking great care of my gear, passing me equipment at just the right time and letting me steal his drink!
Thanks also to my always brilliant Mother, Annette Lennerts for all of her help on day 2!
As usual you rock Mum!
Thanks also to my husband Stuart for putting up with my obessession for collecting props in the lead up and for doing a great job keeping our boys happy so Mummy could do some work!
The upcoming issue will be available in early December and I can't wait to see it in print.
Here are a few from the weekend.

Stunning light & stunning girl =  me sooo happy!

Family Holiday

Stu, Oliver & Lucas along the river

We just got home from a lovely break in Kalbarri.  We were so luckt to have beautiful warm weather, fresh nights, a huge balcony with river and ocean views and the kids in much better health than the previous week.

My parents and brother were with us also, so it was a real extended family holiday.

We enjoyed Pelican feeding, a river cruise on tinnies with a walk up to Castle hill, swims, sand castle building, BBQs, Stu and my seventh wedding anniversary, Richard's 35th birthday, whale watching galore, wonderous Nature's Window, Zbend along with many other sites and all topped off with a dinner at the famous Findlays on our last night.  What a brilliant week!  If it wasn't for the seven hour drive, we'd do it more often I'm sure.

A few pics.

Baby Daniel

I had the pleasure of capturing this gorgeous little guy on his first half birthday.
I met him two days after he was born & I can't believe how quickly that six months went.
He is just divine and a spitting image of his older brother.

Well done guys.

Spring has Sprung

In typical Perth style, our freezing cold weather has dramatically turned into dreamy warm days, BBQs and riverside evenings.  I love that is my favourite season again.
The last term of school is about to start and before we can blink we'll be planning or Christmas dinner menus.
