Meet Jon & Marnie.  Wonderfully creative owners of Bergan Blue.  Parents to beautiful Sibella.  And dear friends.  If I lived around the corner from this gorgeous family, Marnie and I would be terrible housewives but expert bakers and tea drinkers in no time ;-)  As it is we spend a decent chunk of our time emailing, SMSing, Facebooking, Instagraming already!

These guys made a flying visit to Brisbane to catch up with friends, so we thought we’d combine a catch up with some family, couple and individual portraits.  We had a blast!  It was also a real treat to see our girls meet and become fast friends. 

I hope you guys enjoy your images.  Very much looking forward to the next time we can catch up again xx

Meet our wonderful friend’s second baby, Ben.  Little brother to Grace.  This gorgeous man is such a chilled out fella, nothing much bothers him and he is so happy to go with the flow.  A dream baby :)

Here are the images from both Ben’s very quick newborn session, and another session a few weeks later.

A very quick post of our beautiful niece Evie over the first year of her life.  We held four sessions at 10 days, 4 months, 8 months and 14 months (the weather and our schedules made it difficult to hold a session at 12 months).  Here is a sample of those sessions for Pete & Mary of their lovely little lady.  I’ll put together a full post from these sessions shortly.

Yvonne is a new friend, a new cyber friend, we met in an online mothers group for women who were due to give birth in September last year.  It’s a great mix of women, all of whom feel like trusted friends now - even though only a few of us have met in real life because we are spread all across Australia.  So it was a real treat to meet Yvonne, Paicey and their gorgeous little man, Lachlan when they were holidaying on the Gold Coast. 

When we first met online, Yvonne so kindly mentioned that she’d love to have me photograph her baby when he or she was born, but with her family living in Victoria and us in Queensland, that always seemed so unlikely.  What a treat it was for us to make it happen recently!  :)

Thank you for asking me to photograph your lovely little family Yvonne, it was a great afternoon.  Most of all though, it was wonderful to meet you in person.  How nice to know that ease of online chat just flows on into real life  ;-)   Here are a handful of your photographs …

Last week we continued Talitha’s First Year Plan with her 8 month session – what a beautiful, chubby and ever so happy little lady!  She loves her brother and sister to pieces but is frustrated while chasing after them as they run around and play –  it wont be long until she is keeping up with them!  They both make a little cameo at the bottom of this post.

Her BEAUTIFUL big sister Mia – check out those stunning eyelashes!!

And boys being boys, for Emerson to let me take this image of him…

…I had to also take this image of him ….

Thanks for another lovely afternoon guys  :)
