Christmas Gift Idea

I know Christmas is just around the corner and if you are anything like me then you leave everything until the last minute (I call it Yuletide denial!) or worse, rack your brains for that perfect gift for that special someone who has everything already!

Well I think I have the solution.

A Christmas Special Photographic Session $395.00

Your package includes:

1.5 hour Photo session in the Perth Metropolitan Area (within 50kms of CBD) – Location of your choice
35 proofs on CD from which to make your selections
4 Free prints – Two 6”x4” prints and Two 5”x7” prints (unframed)

These packages are available for sessions prior to 13 December if you require prints for Christmas or why not purchase a package anytime up to 24 December as a gift for someone special – A printed voucher will be sent to you for giving.

A special Christmas gift that will last a lot longer than a pair of socks!

Email me if you are interested - first in best dressed for dates.

I've decided to place a header at the beginning of my posts to identify what the post is about. This post is about a Photo Session preview so from now on they will be preceded by the above graphic/header!

So here is the first family photo session from my trip to Hyden....the Argent Family......Enjoy!

I did not alter this little cherubs eyes in any way whatsoever - I promise! They really are this blue, just like the ocean.






This one is a bit arty farty! S&J, I wasn't going mad when I asked you to do this!

Isn't she just the sweetest thing!

And to finish off here they are altogether.

Thanks S&J for allowing me to share in your morning - your proofs are on their way to you tomorrow.

I've moved on to the next family for hopefully I will be back in a couple of days with some more.

Take care everyone!

Home

Wow! What a week it's been - I've learned, laughed, cried, been amazed, inspired, overwhelmed, blessed and embarassed, but not in that particular order. I seriously do not know where to begin except to say thank you to Karen, the community of Hyden and everyone who attended the Scrappin' Outback retreat last weekend, it was a huge success and a credit to Karen, Amy and their support crew of many, both scrapbookers and non-scrapbookers. I had SUCH a wonderful time! Thanks too to Kath & Kim (you know who you are) - you are both such good fun and I think I am still talking to you. I was in very good company with Lis Cassey and Gayle Smith and between us we taught 8 classes in less than 3 days, Gayle taught 4 in all - a great achievement. I was overwhelmed with the response to my classes at this retreat especially the Mixed Media Sampler. Di managed to get nearly 3 of them done on Sunday afternoon and hopefully everyone learned something they can use again and again.

I must also mention the 6 families that welcomed me into their homes and farms to photograph their gorgeous families - I had so much fun meeting you all. Your open arms made my job that much easier. I have some 3500 photos to get through, which is a little daunting but expected. I will post some sneak peeks up on here as I work through each family. So stay tuned for lots of yuminess.

As I mentioned at the Retreat I am looking at returning to the Hyden area during the April school holidays and already have 6 families names down - so if you are interested then please email me and I will put you on the list and reconfirm again late Feb - early March.

I have managed to get some rest today as my big girl had her Valedictory dinner last night and she finishes school tomorrow - well they have muck up day and are off to the beach for the day! In less than 10 days she starts her TEE and by the 13 November she will be finished school forever - wow this has crept up on me and I'm sure it won't take me long to get around the idea but I'm feeling a little old right now!

So the next month is going to be rather busy around here with editing and end of year dance concerts and school functions - hopefully I will be back with lots more to share in the coming weeks.

Have a wonderful weekend everyone!

Preview:Meredith

On Saturday afternoon I had the absolute pleasure of photographing Meredith. What a gorgeous person inside and out you are sweet lady! I think we could have chatted all afternoon over the cuppa and pastries you so kindly provided.

Just a sneak peek for you! There are many to choose from but here are just a handful of my favourites.

This next one I love!

When I first opened up this photo of you and your son I jumped with excitement - very special indeed.

Oh I hope you like!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
