I blogged Meg & Tim’s maternity session here in January and was overwhelmed with the comments left by all of Meg’s family back in the US all anxious to see photos of pregnant Meg and wishing them both all the best for the safe arrival of their daughter.

And Amelia May did arrive safely a month later.  With a set of lungs I got to experience on the Sunday afternoon that I scheduled to go around and take a few portraits of the new parents with Amelia!   The good thing about photography, unlike video you cannot hear what is going on, so most of the shots she looks very serene.  Meg and Tim assured me that this was a very unusual day and usually Amelia is very peaceful and sleeps most the day and night.  Lucky me, the day I visit, she hadn’t slept all day and was very cranky about it!  But seriously she does look peaceful in the photos so I believe them!

Congratulations Meg and Tim!

Kristen contacted me for a family portrait session at the end of last year. She had seen my blog post of Kat & Andrew in Fremantle and wanted some shots of her family in the same location. I love Freo and it is such an amazing photographic location. I met Kristen & Nick and their kids at the Cliff Street wall and we had a few shots on the wall before the rest of the family turned up.

Suddenly there was 10 Dempsters spanning three generations all joking around with each other. We headed to the roundhouse for a few whole family shots then, as it was a hot day, down to the little beach by the roundhouse to finish off the session. Eventually the kids got sick of photos and headed to the water to cool off while the sun sank into the ocean.

Striking a pose for the camera on the wall…

I love these images in a series!

The whole Dempster family!

I love these two too!  So hard to pick favourites…

Grandparents with the kids, so sweet!

A couple of the girls!!!

Now the boys…

The kids looking very sweet, I bet they are like that ALL the time

These ones are just beautiful!  Kids being kids (they escaped the camera when everyone was looking the other way and took to the water!).

A selection of images from my session with Jo, Jamie and Matilda (and not forgetting Dave the dog).

Matilda has amazing big blue eyes!

I had a fabulous shoot with this gorgeous family at the start of the month.  It was a beautiful sunny day at Heathcote Reserve, perfect for spending time on the beach, at the playground and just hanging out on the grass!

Miss Ruby wasn’t too impressed with me or my camera but I think I managed to capture some moments when she was happy playing around and not worried about the camera.

If you would like to see some more images there are a few more uploaded to my Flickr site here.

Some photos taken of Bailey and Lachie in August when they were visiting their grandparents and aunts in Perth!
