Busy busy!

We've been so busy! Oh my god!

We did our first ever wedding on Saturday the 1st of September. It was a big day! We were out for about 10 hours and we filled up about 60GB of memory just taking hundreds...and THOUSANDS of photos!

They'll be uploaded to Facebook every now and then to give the lovely bride a sneak peek!

 We're about 70% through all the photos, and she's looking to get 300+ from us!

I think we did well for our first wedding and we couldn't have asked for a better wedding to have covered! Mai was a lovely, cool, calm and relaxed bride...even when she rocked up almost an hour late to the ceremony! Haha "fashionably late"....

 We also covered our first party.
For Katie's 21st, we set up our lights and camera to make a simple photo booth so she and her friends could come on over and get their photos taken together.

 It was a fun evening, and we all had a giggle going through some of the awesome photos that we took!

A few weeks ago we took some lovely maternity shots for Amanda, who was expecting her little girl to be born in a few weeks.

Well! Amanda JUST managed to sneak those maternity shots in because little Charlotte came along 3 days later!

She's a total sweetie and I love the photos that we took. I'm about halfway through editing them and there will be a couple up on Facebook soon.

 And of course, my little man, Max, turned 1 on August 31st. I had a birthday party for him the day after the wedding, so our weekend was exhausting!

KC did a fantastic job capturing some cute moments of Max, especially that bottom one where he is TOTALLY lapping up all the attention as everyone sang happy birthday to him!
I cannot believe I have a 1 year old already!

Have a great weekend guys!

Can you feel it?

 Spring is coming!
The days seem to be warming up, and I can feel winter slipping away.

It was a nice warm day today, so I took my little Max outside and introduced him to his new toy! It was supposed to be a birthday surprise, but I'm terrible at waiting.

He enjoyed splashing around in his pool and digging through his sand pit! It was lovely!

And it was a great opportunity for me to test out and get to know my new lens!

In other news, yesterday we had a shoot with the lovely Carla and her family. We did some maternity photos in the studio, then headed to a local park to get some family photos and some 2 year photos of her son.

Here's a little look at Carla's maternity shoot. :)

Our next two weekends are going to be busy busy!
We have two shoots planned for this Saturday, a lovely family shoot and a 21st birthday. Then on the following Saturday, we have our very first wedding! I am very excited, but very nervous! I went out and bought a speedlight and a new lens for this shoot because I want it to be PERFECT!
Then on the Sunday after the wedding, it's my son's first birthday party! I cannot believe that by this time next week, I'll be spending my last few hours with an 11 month old. Time goes far to quickly.
