The Day after Chloe & Kevins wedding in Geraldton, I shot the Maynard family. Tash(the mum) seen my relatives family shoot that I did for them back in January & jumped at the chance when she knew I was coming to shoot Chloe’s wedding. & Oh am I so happy she did.! Its so good to have different scenery to shoot in.
Not only are these a good looking family, so my job was very easy. the kids were so cruisey & I felt like I knew these guys forever.
We had a coffee before we set out & waited out a huge storm. Geraldton is also known for its windiness so yes it proved a hassle every now & then as it was really constant. But heh a good learning curve for me as Tamworth isnt the most windy place. But Tash & Paris took it in their stride.
Thanks guys for asking me I had a blast & hopefully when I come over again we can catch-up for another coffee.
Please leave a comment for this AWESOME family & yes of course I ADORE these pics thats why there is so many
ENJOY!

Just before I went away to WA I sneaked in a newborn shoot for the Marr Family. Ryan is their cutest little addition. He was such a cute baby. Not only that bonus but he was placid & loved the studio lights when he was awake.
What also made this special was these guys got me to do their first born Josh a few years back & so I got to meet him again & see what sort of kid he is. Such a cutie like his brother….blonde hair & big eyes & a cheeky little personality to match. Thanks guys. Your such a fab family goodluck with No.2

Last Saturday Plush & I did a huge day photographing all the students for the Country Music College(adults) & Camerata(13-18).
Yes it was a huge day but so fabulous!
I usually do this every year but was over in the USA this time last year & didnt realise how much I missed it & enjoyed doing it.
This was so sweet taking photos of people that are serious about their music careers & hearing them sing & play.
Also I love the pressure of taking 30 peoples photos in an afternoon-making them look different & bringing out their personalities. These guys were a great bunch…not pre-madonnas here. So eager to hear, learn to get great pics of themselves.
Thanks guys love alot of these heres a few & the rest in a lightroom gallery.
Leave a comment for these guys or if you were a student please leave a comment & tell us what you think!
Adore this black & white ARHHHH I could scream!!


…Can I get wooo….hooooo. FAAANASTIC!!

Light……Light…….Light………. sweet SWEET LIGHT!!!

Smooth…so smooth


Blue sky….gotta love it!!!

Welcome to my new set-up of my Blog please tell me what you think. Yes the categories or archives button isnt working but honestly I couldnt wait for tech support so enjoy(I will fix asap)!!! New change, new colours, new background that I still may change. Let me know if you like or dislike, do I need to change something but now for the important stuff a new blog entry:
Joel & Leah
yes I guess thats a weird way to title a blog. But I have Joel & Leah’s wedding in October. & when I seen them at my tenth anniversary party a few weeks ago. I said this was a must.
Sometimes when you grow up with people that you class as you your close friends but were from two different parts of your life you think they will never come together but SURPRISE they did. I knew Leah when my I use to go visit my Dad in Bourke for school holidays so she was about 12ish when we hung out.
Joel I knew from Tamworth,where he grew up & yes we became close mates too. Yes a bit younger than me but heh whats age got to do with friendship.
So when I heard these guys had got together I was so happy for them…but I said to them “I need to shoot you together, to get this relationship in MY HEAD…weird huh I have never said that before. So this shoot fixed this.
We had a blast, they laughed at my lame jokes the light was GORGEOUS …all over fantastic. & yes now I can see them together forever.
Thanks guys cant wait to shoot their wedding.
Now alot of my mates read this blog(well hopefully they do) please leave these guys a comment,some well wishes etc
You guys look so Happy & FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANTASTIC

Love the balloons….Leahs Fav colour—–Green cant wait for the wedding!

My Fav……Just love this!!!

Now to all my regulars I really need your help. Here is technology & It will save me heaps of time but the question is do you like & which one do you like? or any at all- or do you prefer the old way?
SO I will put a few large files-my favs then these two options….numbered gallery or lightbox…Simply option 1 or option 2
worse case you get to see in this post alot of Joel & Leah’s fab pics. Thanks for your help!! This may take a little longer to load due to all the options!!!
Happy Picking!!!

Wow these pics are awesome once again Karissa! I don’t really have one favourite as there are too many I love! Who would have thought that storms and wind would have created such amazing pictures! Craig and Tash are one HOT couple…and I’m just glad they have been adopted as part of our Treeve family
