About Me

I am a mother of three boys (three boys, being punished for my sins!) and have been a fan of photography for years. I started shooting weddings seriously about five years ago. With the arrival of my twins, I decided to reduce my working hours in order to spend more time at home with my boys. Using photography to make up for the loss of income was a natural progression.

This is where you will be able to catch regular excerpts of what I am up to...

 

Sorry y'all but I am going to make this a short post (Oh, how you'll miss my great wit, right?!), but things are just chaos on my end,  a longer post will probably mean another two weeks of not posting.

 

I am not sure why, but there is something about a 'Friday' wedding that  seems  to make it a little more special to me. I feel like... it's kind of a secret wedding, the only one on a day where everyone else is at work, sitting at their desks.

 

Kim & Leigh exchanged their vows at Casalinga and had their reception at Hakunamatata...a really unique affair!!

Yay, two posts in one day! These are stunning as always - I love the sun in the last one especially. And yes, Fridays are a wonderful, magical day to get married on :-)

Hi there busy bee.
Great work as always and that is to be expected from a master photographer such as your self.
I must say you are converting me into a contrast freak with all your stunning work.
God Bless

I haven't posted in a while and missed my Monday/Tuesday deadline. It's just this "pre-Christmas crazyness" that seems to have taken over and has me running around trying to get it all sorted before the bloke in the red suit arrives.

 

 

'Tis the season to be jolly?.........Bah! Humbug! More like 'tis the season to be gallivanting around toy shops; standing in queues; fighting for a Ben 10 watch, baking with the kids and swallowing one's pride by allowing the kids to decorate the tree themselves - no matter how ghastly it looks.

 

 

Just a couple of images for now until, that is, I get a breather to post my wedding from last weekend.

If you look closely you can still see the biscuit crumbs around Jake's mouth.
