Oh hi!

So I took a little hiatus.. I didn't really mean for it to be so long between posts, but sometimes life gets busy and I just wasn't able to find the time or energy to sit at the computer and tend to this little place.

I'm expecting baby boy number two in May this year. So things are going to get even busier! 

I've got a tonne of photos to share, including ones still left over from our trip to Tasmania in January 2016 - we also visited this January, so I'll have more.

So, my posts may not be something from my day, more like something from my year. But I'm ok with that.

Hi and happy new year to anyone out there still following along!

The Boy & I

Skyspace by James Turrell

If you're ever in Canberra, be sure to check out James Turrell's permanent installation 'Skyspace' at the National Gallery of Australia. It's apparently best to see it sunrise or sunset, as you see the space change, as the light moves. We were there in the middle of the day, and it was still beautiful. 

Bloom

This is what late spring / early summer looks like right outside our apartment. 

Every day these trees are in bloom I'm constantly in awe of their beauty.

I've finally made some time to update my Print Shop with some different prints for sale.

our little traveller

teddy boy was a good little travelling partner. he got back into a routine well and rolled with the punches.. even taking the heat in 

his stride in sardinia. we were careful not to overdo it, have quiet time at home, as well as get out and about.

polo and i have travelled a lot, but it certainly was a lot different travelling with a baby in tow. still fun, but less spontaneous and we 

didn't do much bar hopping or dancing! :) we just made cocktails at home instead.

it's a shame he won't remember this trip, but we have lovely photos and stories to share when he is older. there will also be plenty 

more trips to come in the future! what a lucky boy, i didn't travel internationally until i was 20.

newborn

it's hard to believe that Teddy is 2 months old now, he's grown quite a lot in the past two months. so funny looking at these photos of 

our first weeks at home and remembering just how small he was! he's now just over 4 kilos, woohoo. he'll have big bhubby cheeks and 

rolls for days before i know it. motherhood is good. it keeps me busy, hence no posts recently. we have good days and bad days. but 

whatever happens, or how hard a day seems, looking at Theodore's little face makes my heart melt. the poor kid is smothered 

constantly in kisses. ha!

i'm going to try and not let this blog be taken over by baby, but i don't think i'll be here much in the next little while and forgive me 

for the baby photos.

hope you're all well. i'm missing visiting all your blogs too.. i don't seem to spend much time on the computer these days, my hands 

seem like they are constantly full with other things or someone :)

as of today i'm on maternity leave! baby boy's due date is the 8th march, so not long now.
unfortunately i'm sick with a awful head cold. so i'm feeling pretty yucky. 
i'm unsure how frequently i'll be posting here in the next little while...
i haven't been taking a lot of photos recently and things have been busy for his impending arrival.
but please come back every now and again to check in. i'll miss you all if you don't.
i'm still on instagram, so you can keep up to date through there, if you're interested.

three pictures from my birthday last month.
i had a beautiful day. one of the best birthdays i've had in a while.
fish and chips, a swim in the sea and hanging out with family and friends. my little brother is pictured above :)

life in b&w II

 

 

 

the bump. 30 weeks.

i thought you might be interested in seeing the bump. this photo was taken by the husband the other day, whilst we were exploring 

some of sydney's beautiful harbour beaches, not too far from where we live.

i'll be sharing some film photos from the day in the new year. such amazing views, such beautiful weather. so relaxing. 

this is why we live in sydney.

so yes - sydney above with the bump - in all our glory. ha!!

happy new year everyone from sunny sydney.

wishing you all the best for 2013.

yen magazine - guest photographer

i'm very pleased to be the guest photographer in this month's yen magazine - issue 60. 

as you can see above, i've got a two page spread and a poster of one of my photos in the magazine. 

so go grab yourself a copy!

thanks to yen for the opportunity.

two is becoming three!

i'm very excited to share some special news with you.. 

the husband and i are having a baby boy! we're looking forward to meeting him in early march 2013.

i'm almost 23 weeks and feeling good. i had terrible morning (all day and night) sickness for quite a while, but now i feel much more 

like myself, thank goodness. the bump has started to pop out the last couple of weeks. i look more like a pregnant lady now and less 

like i've eaten a very big meal. maybe i'll post a bump photo here some day...

exciting times ahead!

bliss magazine, issue 3

i'm very pleased to be included in the 3rd issue of Bliss magazine, produced by Hanke Arkenbout. i was lucky enough to 

be profiled in this magazine along with 13 other artists/photographers from across the world.

Bliss is available for purchase here. There is the option of a digital copy or a real life paper copy :)

It's worth checking out issues 1 and 2 as well.

A big thank you to Hanke, so happy to be included in such a great publication!

pink!

the rhododendron flowers were beautiful! i couldn't stop taking photos of the trees that looked like they were wearing beautiful 
flower pom-poms. they were all over the blue mountains, these particular beauties i found in blackheath.

please forgive my obsession!

in print

as well as being published in yen magazine, i also have two photos in the current issue (49) of frankie magazine.

it's so nice seeing my work published. thank you frankie for the opportunity and your ongoing support.

yen magazine

i was super happy to be to be included in the current issue (58) of yen magazine. this issue is their photo issue 

and the above image and short interview was part of a feature entitled 'vintage charm'.

thanks yen for including me!
