Family Portraits - Kingaroy/South Burnett Photographer

When Vanessa contacted me about getting some family portraits done, I was really excited, because she had seen some earlier images taken on our farm and wanted to drive over an hour so they could have some of the gorgeous backdrops we have here in their photographs. I was only too happy to oblige... :)

This is the second time I have shot this growing family....first, when little man C was only a tiny baby. I couldn't believe how grown up the kids were when i saw them again.

The kids had a ball, exploring the wide open spaces, all the treasures a working farm has, and playing with the new addition that arrived just after they did, our puppy.

Here are some of my favourites from the day...

Baby D...

Newborn photography is one of the most precious experiences for me...not only because babies are beautiful, soft and have that lovely baby smell...but as a mother, nothing in this world is more fulfilling than the joy of having brought into this world a precious little person you have had growing inside of you for 9 months. Although my youngest is now 6, I remember the feeling as if it were yesterday....the strong maternal instincts at holding a newborn is something we women are so fortunate to have.

To capture them at this precious age is such a reward in itself...the first two weeks go by in a blur for new mum's (and dad's)...and having beautiful photo's showing how small they really were, are a wonderful reminder of this fleeting moment...


This week, I have the utmost pleasure of photographing little baby D at this tender age, with his mum and dad, Kirstie and Wayne.

Here are some of my favourites from their newborn session -:

Proud dad, Wayne...

Beautiful mum Kirstie...Doesn't she look amazing!! :)

Summer is in the air.....

You know its getting close to summer when the flying insects hang around your outside lights at night, when you only sleep with a single sheet over you... when your washing dries in 20 minutes flat on the clothes line!

Here in beautiful Qld, summer has come early and along with the heat, is all the fun that comes along with it...Swimming, summer dresses, long warm afternoons....and lots of bbq's with friends :)

I haven't shared personal photo's for a while...so here are a few that screams summer, fun and family...to me :)
