BACK SOON..... {Wagga Wagga Fine Art, Portrait Photographer}

I am going to HAVE to make some sort of a schedule in order to fit everything into my week, as my poor blog just seems to be more and more neglected as time goes by!
I finally got my new Canon 7d last week, which I LOVE so much!!!  I also bought the 50mm 1.4 which I LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!! So there will be so many more Fine Art images and portraits to come soon...
I promise...
In the mean time, {we shall call it an intermission}... 
Enjoy...



Miss Erica... {Wagga Wagga Photographer}

To say that little Erica is a miracle, would barely bring justice to her story... This little darling was truly a god send in ever sense of the term!

Nick... The Little Dream Boat {Wagga Wagga Child Portrait Photographer}

A couple of weeks ago I had the pleasure of meeting little dream boat, Nick and his beautiful parents!
Nick had come to Wagga with his Mum and Dad to visit some family friends and they booked in for a little session with me while they were here!  
Our session was a little different to normal... we headed out to the beautiful little beach at Oura upon the river, a favourite spot for swimming and fishing around this way!!
Nick is SUCH a dream boat... he has the most beautiful full lips and deep chocolate brown eyes... and THE longest lashes EVER!!!!
And don't even get me started on that olive skin!
As soon as we hit the sand, Nick was collecting rocks and watching the splashes as they hit the water... and that was pretty much all he wanted to do!
It was soooo hot out that day... so it probably wasn't a bad thing that I ended up almost knee deep in the river shooting for a while!
I was just so honoured that they had put off their family portraits until they could make it here so that I could do them!!
He is such a sweet little darling, and soooo obviously the very heart of his Mum and Dad!
So... FINALLY... Mum and Dad... here is your darling little dream boat...

I caught this as I was walking over to meet Nick and his Mummy... they just looked so 
gorgeous I had to stop and shoot right then and there!
Oh, look at that little pout!!!!
Fletcher's Mummy actually spotted this one as we were all walking together and 
thought it would make a gorgeous shot for her dear friends... and wasn't she SO right!
It became obvious that Nick had his own ideas of how this whole shoot was going to go...
and ALL of it was going to be IN the water... So I just followed him around and 
capture him being... HIM!

I adore this image... Nick's Mum is so beautiful, and they both just 
adore him so very much!

All in for a big smooch!!!

Such a beautiful family!!

Nick the dream boat spent most of our two hours together collecting
little {and big} rocks to throw into the water!

I just adore this one of Nick with his Mum and Dad!

Look at them... Gorgeous little men!

Nick just played and splashed and played some more!

Remember Fletcher the Super Cutie??  Well, he is Nick's little friend 
and came along for a few photos and a little fishing too!


Thanks so much Mum, Dad and little Nick for sharing some of your time in Wagga with me and allowing me to capture just a little of your family!!
I look forward to next time!!

Dust It Off... {Wagga Wagga Portrait Photographer}

I feel as though all I do of late is apologise for not being around very much... And here I am... again... apologising for falling behind in blogging my sessions... in writing anything of note... in doing much of anything outside the minimum requirements of every day life...
The truth is while I have been busy... I have also been unwell... and slowly, but surely... I have come to a point where I just need to slow it all down a little and get well... Because I am a mother first... and my beautiful, darling boy needs a healthy Mum...
I have been editing a beautiful session all week long... and I will share with you in the next few days...
But For now... I share with you... My Heart...

He pulled his guitar out from the garage... dusty... out of tune... and he began to strum...
He can not play anyway... But he will learn soon...
He loves to just strum... 
And sing sweet songs to me...
About how he adores me... Loves me...
How I make his world complete...
If only he knew... What he he is to me...
All of that...
And then some...
He IS my Heart

He is my Heart...

...My Soul...


...My One True Love...


... My Hope...


...My Faith
