Exmouth Family Photography - sunset sneak peek

Had the pleasure of photographing another Exmouth family yesterday evening and we headed over to Hunter's below the Lighthouse to take advantage of the fantastic weather.

Can't resist sharing one of Grandpop & Grand-daughter!

Exmouth Family Portraits - Sunrise Beach Novotel Ningaloo

Headed down to the beach in front of the Novotel Ningaloo for some fun family portraits. You might remember the little girl, Sophie, from way back in 2009 when I did some portraits just of her while all the boys were at school or work. This time I got to enjoy spending time with the whole family and it was a blast!

We tried to be serious (how cute is this family!)


but it was far more fun to be goofy

and pull faces & cool poses

and get thrown around



Once the kids got a little tired, we let them play in the sand & chase seagulls while the grownups went for a more romantic look (these two are sooo much in love and it shows every second!)

Sophie only gave us a minute but was so adorable when she joined her parents who could complain?!

Exmouth Novotel Ningaloo wedding - sneak peek

Anna and Wayne got married at the Novotel Ningaloo in Exmouth on Thursday and I got to spend a couple of hours with four generations of Anna's family before the ceremony.

Some of my favourite wedding day moments happen during these "getting ready" times.

Sophie thought her mom was just the most beautiful mom ever and couldn't resist kisses as Anna's mom (YaYa) and grandma (also YaYa!) looked on.

Exmouth Family Beach Portraits - sneak peek

A fantastically gorgeous family and I headed to Town Beach in Exmouth for some family portraits on Tuesday.

I love how happy they are!

Exmouth Family Portrait Session - sneak peek

I can't think of a better way to end 2010 than with one of my favourite families down at the beach!

A long, long time ago (OK, September 2009, but it seems like a long time ago!) I introduced you to Benjamin - then already an adorable rebel!

I'm here to tell you that he's staying true to his rebel status!

His super-great big brother Dylan did a fantastic job posing and helping with his little brother.

A moment between mum & bub from a recent family portrait session down on Town Beach in Exmouth.

Bubbles on the beach in Exmouth

I have some friends up from Perth and we headed to the beach for some fun in the sun on the weekend. Their daughter loves bubbles and the breezy conditions helped her spread them far and wide!

Exmouth wedding - sneak peek

Mel & Nick had their wedding around at Turquoise Bay on the Ningaloo Reef Friday after getting ready at the Novotel Ningaloo. Their two gorgeous boys stood still for a frame or two and I couldn't resist sharing this shot of the brothers

Stephanie - Toddler Portraits

My Grandmother always says that I was a ball of fire when I was little.  After hanging out with Stephanie the other day, I know exactly what she means now (and I should apologise to my parents a little bit, maybe!)  Stephanie is cute as a bug, full of energy (my Grandmother might say "beans") and super independent.

I like that in a kid!

Brooke, Stephanie's mom, put her in a gorgeous little outfit complete with matching headband. We spent a lot of time adjusting said headband :)

The lure of her private playground was too much so we headed out under the shadecloth to play on the slide for a while

She'd slide down so fast it was impossible to get more than one frame each time so Brooke would scoop her up and we'd do it again and again and again

Steph thought I was hilarious

A quick trek down to the beach in front of their house seemed like a good idea, but Stephanie was totally captivated by what was IN the water and not so much in what the silly adults were doing


Even the humpback whales swimming just off the shoreline only held her attention for a moment

before she went back to calling all sea creatures to her!

Baby Faith - Newborn Portraits 21 days old

Amy was the second winner of my Newborn Photo Session. competition I love this family - last year we did a multi-generational portrait session for them and had a great time. I met Faith at the same oval for my first outdoor newborn photo shoot. They had only returned from Perth the day before and Faith was a trooper! I know it's been a while since I teased you with some tootsies so I won't keep you waiting any longer!




It's my binkie!



Ahhh, binkie is better!

Faith's dad gave her this awesome giraffe

Sneak Peek - Baby F

Who can resist baby feet?

More cute baby coming soon!

Baby Benjamin - Baby Portraits 50 days old

Benjamin was such a little rebel during our shoot! You might remember his Sneak Peek where he looked so innocent - it was all a ruse. We'd start to take some napping photos and he'd wake up.  We'd start to take some happy awake shots, he'd fall asleep. He'd be hungry so we'd do some mom and bub shots, he decided he was done with his snack. He'd want his pacifier in, then pftooey out he'd spit it - and he can get some good distance on that thing! Repeat the routine. Good thing I always plan for baby sessions to run long and am prepared for anything that comes up!


Benjamin spent a lot of our time together planted face down. I can't imagine it was comfortable, but he seemed very happy that way!

I love baby feet

And when they're sleeping, it's just so awwwwww.



Sharon collects teddy bears and Benjamin was lovin' on one that was just the right size

I had a lovely time with him Mum Sharon and Little B was such a character!

Sneak Peek - Baby B

Cute-ee...what else can I say?

More coming soon...

Baby Jacob - Newborn Session 21 days old

Noni was my first winner from my recent Newborn Photo Session contest and we set up the shoot for cutie Jacob just after they returned from Perth.  He was wide awake for pretty much the whole time but you could see he really did want to snooze - but he didn't want to miss out on anything, either!  I've never seen such a young bub be so interesting in his environment - it was wonderful...except that he was very grumpy whenever we'd try to move him or remove his pacifier!  Didn't matter, he was just so cute we still got a ton of shots that make us smile.

The Thinker

World's Quickest Nap Part I

Cheeky boy

World's Quickest Nap Part II

A little grump without his binkie - some mom loving helped, but ultimately, it was the binkie FTW

So very cute!


We'll be doing a Family Portrait Session in the next little while and I can't wait. Noni's sure that Jacob will sleep through the whole thing since that's what he was meant to do for this one.
