Here's some images from a portrait session I did with my daughters just before christmas. I took them to a lovely local field/hillside.
Lara discovered the "Santa Clauses" (what do you call them?) that where all over the paddock.
And the search began to find MORE Santa Clauses to make wishes on... I thought she looked like a little Ladybird here!
There's a couple of farms right nearby and unfortunately this one is for sale and soon there will be no more lovely countryside in our suburb... got to get in before the developers do!
I thought we'd have a bit of fun... Lara loves talking on the phone....
When we got home Lara posed for this shot! Such a cutie! And I'm very biased... but I can admit it lol!

Happy New Year Wendy! Our new year has seen both of my gorgeous children start at daycare together. Big brother is so proud to "look after" his little sister when Mum & Dad are at work. Little sister is sad when we say goodbye, but her smile hello at the end of the day makes my heart ache with love....awwww. You know I love your photos and would cherish any time in front of your camera. Lerissa x
Dear Wendy,
My name is Samantha Abbott and I came across this blog via your Facebook page! I am after a photographer for our upcoming wedding in June and thought I would have a look at your work. I would love to be able to organise a portrait session for my partner and I with you prior to our big day-your photos are incredible.
2009 marks a big year for us both. We are getting married in June, travelling overseas for the first time for our honeymoon, as well as hopefully completing renovation work on our home! Should be a busy year, but definitely one to remember.
Hi there! I have also come from your sister's lovely blog, and wow - you're a very talented photographer! Our new year has been fantastic - starting with a ride on the old Puffing Billy steam train on new years day in Melbourne, and following up with some great extended family shin-diggs since getting home to Brissy again. Just lovely :) I guess if I won the giveaway I would like the individual session, only because I'm quite sure there is no way I would convince my husband to get photos done with me, and while I would love some photos of my two kids, we have a rule not to publish their faces on the Internet. So that just leaves me I guess :D
Hi Wendy - I'm also here via your sister's blog. Congrats on the new business and here's a huge 2009 for you. Ours started well with a night out on the Sunshine Coast with some friends visiting from Sydney. Then relaxing days on the beach with my family.
If I won, would love an individual portrait of our 16 month old Sophie as my husband's family live on the other side of the world and don't get to see her cute face (and 4 teeth!).

Hi Wendy,
Well I'll enter the competition because I'd love some nice portraits of me :-)
I had a great new year and some projects for 2009 include: photography, travelling to South America and hopefully going to France as well to see my friends and family.
Cheers,
Aurélie
