Monthly Archives: December 2010 My sister Heather and I grew up having our school holidays in Forster. It was a bit of a random place to go to, but our grandparents bought a couple of units in a building overlooking the main beach, so it was where we went every year, pilgrimage style. The car trip was day-long and hot, but…  Post Christmas bliss is a wonderful thing to watch. Kids are all out riding their new scooters, playing with new toys, and everyone is relaxed while the hot lazy days roll by. Hours to spend sleeping, eating, swimming and then doing it all again. It was time for Lauren to get a lesson on her…  Merry Christmas!!!!! Christmas morning at our place involved excitement for Santa, a new bike, a Stihl chainsaw for kiddies, and lunch at the respite care place that my Grandmother has been in for a couple of weeks. My sister and I grew up having many Christmas’s here, and it was a really special day to… Ah thanks Nerrida!! So cool that you took the time to write your thoughts here and take a look see!!!! Yes, I love doing this work and I know these sorts of pictures will become valuable in the years to come. I”m a shocker i love photographing those kids, terribly addictive!!! xxx Just beautiful Beth…. what amazing memories you’re gifting to your family. Love the hide n seek shots!  Christmas is for kids, wouldn’t you agree? We’re getting ready to set up Christmas morning for two little cherubs called Lauren and Angus (my niece and nephew). It is possible that adults get even more excited about the concept than the kids themselves, especially at the little bitty ages of 2 and 4. Too cute. Angus’s eyes… Oh thank you so much Tracy!!! I really appreciate your comments and observations!! Happy New Year to you too!!!! Resolutions for 2010?? love the last shot and the processing in this set. Happy new year! ‘Tis the season to be jolly. Yesterday I hit the highway and drove all day north to Forster, New South Wales. There’s something indescribably fabulous about driving to your Christmas holiday destination…there are more cars on the road than usual, everyone is driving just a bit faster than they should, and many cars are packed to… Oh thanks so much Kathy! I wish you and the gang a merry christmas and joyful new year!! hello to canada from canberra! xxx Have a wonderful holiday Beth. I so enjoy coming to your blog and reading (and seeing) what you’ve been up to. All the best for a fabulous 2011!!  Wendy of Clarity Communications asked me to photograph her with her dog Benny. Wendy’s Canadian, works from home and always has Benny by her side. Her mum misses out on seeing what it’s all about here in Canberra and was eager for Wendy to get some photography done. Sure, I thought, this is right up my… Yes!!! Too cute indeed!!! (And the lady is super lovely too) It ends up that the photos of Benny and I are still on the photographer’s blog so you can see them. The ones of me with the funny expressions at the end were taken as I told a story about how funny Benny can be. BUT ISN’T THE DOG TOO CUTE FOR WORDS? XO  Kate Prior, the Managing Director of face2face Recruitment planned her work Christmas party well in advance. She surprised her colleagues with a car pick up, a salsa and zumba lesson with the beautiful Sharon at Danzon, and then off they all went to D’Browes Restaurant for dinner. To cap off the evening and to get… Thanks so much Kathy!! Yeah it was coooool, they all had a blast and were so awesome to photograph while learning to dance at the same time! What a fabulous idea (both the party and capturing the fun with photos). Love them!  Jenny’s photos Jenny of Ginninderra Chiropractic asked me to give her a mug shot update. I had a look at her website, and saw some rather poorly images there that she’d taken herself (sorry Jenny!). I thought I could help her with more than just the mug shot. We worked out specifically what defines her business, and brought those elements… 
Thank you Jules! Yes I really love the challenge of capturing the experience of a business…we’re all kids at heart really! Beth, I love these images! Somehow you’ve managed to capture the playfulness without losing the professionalism. I love it! Thanks Shanna and Tracy! Yes, she is super stoked. She’s busy putting together a new website as well, so it will all come together beautifully. She’s such a lovely person and it really shows in her business. I definitely recommend her if you need a great chiro! Fantastic job Beth! I wish more people would put beautiful images on their website. I’ll have to go check this place out. My kids need a tune up! your images are a definite improvement, She will be happy with these |
