All the way from England {Auckland Brussels Family Photographer}

October 8th, 2010

They came from afar. England in fact. Well, pause in their french holiday. Left the caravan (and a small pair of shoes) in a parisian campground and drove over to Brussels. Out of car, checked into hotel and off we went. Was so much fun. The kids were wired after spending so much time in [...]

 

They came from afar. England in fact. Well, pause in their french holiday. Left the caravan (and a small pair of shoes) in a parisian campground and drove over to Brussels. Out of car, checked into hotel and off we went.

Was so much fun. The kids were wired after spending so much time in the car so was whizz whizz laugh the entire time. I met these guys (before kids) many years ago playing netball in Brussels (seemed like a nice patriotic thing to do). Was so good to finish the session with a white beer just like the old days…

They came all the way from Paris for their shoot. How could I not adore them on first meeting? One of my favs so far, more to come.

Cartwheels through the Park {Auckland Brussels Family Photographer}

September 9th, 2010

A beautiful mid winter day, some bad french grammar on my part (I appreciate anyone who is brave enough to listen to my bad french, my son certainly doesn’t accept it), a beautiful family, lots of colour, a beautiful park and tons of fun. I was so impressed watching Charlotte cartwheeling through the field while [...]

I was so impressed watching Charlotte cartwheeling through the field while I went to get a chair and blankets from the car. What a cool trick to have up your sleeve. Such a carefree, happy image, I love how her family is looking on proudly.

Pretty Blog {Auckland Belgium Family Photographer}

September 8th, 2010

So many sessions to post! And now I can. Blog has been fixed and refurbished. Back to the gorgeous French/Australian family from Paris. I loved that they were so relaxed about this shoot. “He loves his car so we’re happy if he’s sitting on it in every photo. It’s who he is right now”. Yup, [...]

Yup, perfect.

I also really like that their family pics are not only filled with love but include a good dose of romance.

Sweet Sixteen {Belgium Family Photographer}

August 13th, 2010

My goddaughter turned sixteen today. I am godmother (one of her godmamas, you can never have too many) to a sixteen year old! Sniff sniff. Will the world stop twirling for a few years so I can catch up with the here and now. We’re spinning way too fast. Both my beautiful goddaughters and their [...]

Jessica Part 1 {Auckland Child Photographer}

August 10th, 2010

Bedroom fit for a young beautiful princess. We love Julia Donaldson’s books too. “No no no, off you go, ho ho hoho ho ho ho” (we have the song version of room on a broom).

Winter Afternoons

June 23rd, 2010

Family portrait sessions on a sunny winter afternoon have me squealing quietly for joy. Beautiful soft golden light without keeping the kids up past their bedtime. It takes a little more effort to find the right day weather wise, but the results are so worth it.

Gold Coast, Australia {Auckland Family Photographer}

May 30th, 2010

After a wonderful month in Brussels, a few days in London, we flew directly back to NZ (one hour Singapore stop over is perfect when we are lucky enough to score empty planes) arriving late Friday night. 3am Monday I was up getting ready to fly to Australia. The airport Park and Drive is wonderful [...]

 

After a wonderful month in Brussels, a few days in London, we flew directly back to NZ (one hour Singapore stop over is perfect when we are lucky enough to score empty planes) arriving late Friday night. 3am Monday I was up getting ready to fly to Australia. The airport Park and Drive is wonderful except when you arrive back 4 days later, midnight, it is pouring with rain and your car battery is flat (no, I didn’t leave the lights on, dodgy battery is all).

I spent four days with some amazing american and australian photographers in a mansion on the coast. Here are some pics from a family shoot I had on our last day. How gorgeous are they!
