Another newborn enters the world!

I had the privilage of taking another beautiful newborn's first photos. It seems that everyone says the same thing when they see a newborn - "I can't believe how small it is!" and of course I'm never one to disappoint! These cute pics are of tiny little Baby W and his very proud big sister Miss B. It did take a couple of goes, but we got there in the end.

More cool photoshop actions!

Hi
I just had to share my newest purchase, cause I am just sooooooooooo excited! I have found this awesome company called MCP Actions that have the most awesome actions for portraits. I have attached the link in my Favourite Sites section, check them out. I will try and do some before and afters for you to see when I get a spare moment so keep watching this space!

Baby L and Big Sister Miss J

I did a shoot on Tuesday of this week and processed them in record time, just in time for Fathers Day, I even surprised myself as I am now doing all my own photoshop work as my photoshop assistant (aka my husband) is now working full time and doesn't have all that spare time! So I've had my crash course and I keep learning new things all the time. I keep finding all these cool actions that amaze me with how good they look.

Anyhoo....... back to the pics, I have so many favourite ones of these very cute girls that it was so hard to decide which ones to post!

Little Miss M at 3 months

Here is the next installment of my Birth to 1 year package from my last post. This is Little Miss M at 3 months old. I can't believe how much she has grown in 3 months. She now has the most gorgeous little smile. I can't wait until our next meeting at 6 months to see what she can do!

First newborn portrait session

These are some of my favourite images from my first newborn session that I did back in May of a beautiful family and their new daughter Miss M. Little Miss M was the perfect angel, falling asleep just near the end so we could get the Anne Geddes style image at the bottom of this entry.
This was my first customer for my Newborn to First Year Package. It includes a session at birth, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months and 1 year. Following each session all images are given copyright free for the customer on CD following signing of a copyright aggrement. At the completion of the 1 year, specially selected images from each of the shoots will be mounted into a 10 page Gallery Album. This package is $1250, paid in instalments at each sitting of $250.

Some moments from our SA trip

We have recently returned from a fantastic trip to South Australia to celebrate my brother-in-law's 40th birthday. The kids all had a great time and can't wait until Christmas when they will see each other again. The photos to follow are some pics I took of my sister-in-law's sister and her 2 beautiful girls, just to show Dad what he missed out on!! I will get my skates on and process the other images, but for now, here is a sneak peak of a few of my favourites so far.

New Logo

After much communication between me, an artistically challenged individual and an awesome graphic designer in the US named Trisha Robertson at Orange Gecko Designs, we (do you like that we!) have come up with my new logo, which I have now added as my blog title, pretty cool I think! This woman is great and would recommend her to anyone, she does the most amazing work and has a great website for budding photographers in need of desperate guidence in Photoshop! Her website is www.orangegeckodesigns.com
Thanks Nils pointing me in the Orange Gecko direction. I think we must be even now!
