Veronika, that is. I had the pleasure of meeting her last year for a photosession just before Christmas, you can view the session here. 

This time she bought her whole family along for a session. I had a whole bundle of fun following her kooky but cute brothers around and capturing her family interact with nothing but love for each other … But I have to admit the highlight of my day was scoring this next shot of Veronika with the biggest expression of joy on her face. It’s what my job is all about and I love it.

Please keep Veronika in your thoughts and prayers, just last week she was admitted into ICU for becoming very very sick too quickly. She is on the mend now but any extra love/prayers/positive vibes are always needed.

I think this next shot is my favourite family photo of the day. Happy faces enjoying each others company, what more could you want?

It’s Winter and it’s cold, but with a dose of good luck you still get beautiful days for photos. And let’s face it, life is too quick and unexpected to hold off taking snaps because it’s “too cold” – that’s not a “hire me” line, it’s a “get-out-there-and-snap-piccies-of-yourself-and-family-because-life-is-precious-and-kiddies-grow-up-wayyyyy-too-fast” line.

I took the Loenneker family down to Sandy Bay beach for their family session. Three gorgeous girls, so little and sweet. I had such a lovely time watching them interact and just really enjoy each others company. Too me that is what capturing families is all about, the love shared.

Be warned, it’s a big blog post, I have a lot of favourites, it kind of happens when the family is just too darn awesome. 

After the family session, a little friend (little Ella with the heart lollipop a few posts down) joined them for a cupcake feast! Thanks to Clare Michelle for supplying the most scrummy chocolate cupcakes with strawberry icing, mmm mmm mmm.

Not quite sure why single Mums don’t get more credit for what they do, every one I have met are the most giving and selfless women I know. I mean, doing it ALL on their own, what a responsibility.

Beck is no exception – and I think she is exceptional! Three girls, 5 years old and under. One word – WOW!

We kind of knew from the get-go a complete traditional family portrait would be pretty much out of the question. But who wants that anyway? I mean the girls are teeny tiny cute and extremely full of spirit, I was just happy to capture their gorgeous personalities.

I hope you like what we got Beck, you are doing an amazing job and should be sooo proud of yourself, you only have to look at the sparkle in their eyes to know it.
