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...
Through my window...
November 11, 2008 // Personal

A lovely sunset last week that I snapped through my dining room window.

Hi there Guru,
I guess you discovered the saying of when one door closes an window opens.
Great shot and i love the two birds in flight.
I will not dare post any pics of my window shots as i might get arrested for being a peeping tom.
Have a great day.
Paul

The new logo is great...Secret project????

P.S.
Who cares about dirty windows with boys as beautiful as yours in those stunning photos?
I've never heard anyone say on their deathbed..."Gee...I really wished I had had cleaner windows...."!

not on my deathbed (I hope)...but reviewing the the pics I did ponder over "gee, it would be nice to have curtains and clean windows" But Oliver is up there nearly every second morning so it would be a soul destroying job! So to hell with it!

You have beautiful children Andrea. Isn't it just the greatest of pleasures to photograph your own kids? I'll send you a few via email which I took of my little Amy (3) recently.

"Ta Daaaa!" . . . new logo
October 19, 2008 // Personal

I have spent hours redesigning my logo, not the main logo just the one on the images (for the blog) to accomodate a secret project I am working on, will keep you posted ;-) What do you think?  . . . It does not look that great on this blog design, think I may be giving away my secret project!

The boys wearing the same ol' oufits again! Seems like my children are allergic to clothes!!

Love the new logo, and the last photo is just too beautiful!

I like it, except that the word "Photography" doesn't show up at all because it's too narrow and flowing compared to your name. I love the leaf-graphics, though!

And I don't think you've given anything away; I'm still clueless (although that could be the Bride Brain I'm suffering from).

Could be brides brains as your countdown toward your big day begins, only 11 more sleeps!!

"Dadda" time...

Who would have known? . . . Liam has a soft side! I do wish that 'time' would slow down, just little bit more, let them stay like this for longer!
