Happy New Year to you. I hope your Christmas and New year was lovely. We had a great time. At 3, Atticus is really starting to get Christmas so it was wonderful to create some magic for him.

We’ve been to the zoo, caught up with family and friends and spent a few days relaxing. Now we’re back and looking forward to 2012.

We’ve been pretty busy in the lead up to Christmas and the blog has been a little neglected. Here’s some recent loveliness to bring a smile to your day.

New Life, New Love

My friends laugh that I’m permanently clucky. I agree. Newborns and babies just rock my world. I had the privilege of assisting Raoul on a newborn shoot recently. It was a joy and I loved every minute of it. So without further ado meet the divine Jed.

Our Best Friend

Most of you know Atticus as our first baby. In fact our first baby was of the furry kind – a beautiful lemon coloured Beagle called Harley. We got him back in 1997 when he was only 6 weeks old. Harley was one of a kind. He was stubborn, obstinate, playful and our best friend. Sadly we said goodbye to Harley last week – just 5 weeks short of his 14th birthday.

I was lucky to be able to capture this beautiful portrait of Atticus saying his goodbyes to Harley on the old Beagle’s last day with us.

Goodbye Harley, we love you more than you can ever know. xo

Snugglebum

I’m a huge fan of Snugglebum kids pajamas and have had Atticus in them since he was tiny. I knew the owner Mel was a Willy local and was thrilled when she called the other day to organise a photo shoot for her up coming Christmas pajamas.

The end result is just gorgeous. In fact I’ll be getting a pair for Atticus. Thanks Mel, it was lovely to work with you. xo

Happy Father’s Day

There are a lot of Dads waking up to gorgeous portraits of their kids this morning. Happy Father’s Day to you all. Enjoy your special day. xo

My Rockin Boy

Most people tell me that dressing up little girls is fun. I’m sure it is but as I only have a son so far I have to make do with him. Luckily I’ve managed to find a ton of gorgeous rockin clothing just for boys. Gone are the days where all you could find for a boy was a pair of jeans and a polo top.

Raoul has a fondness for all things punk and couldn’t resist picking up the camera when I dressed Atticus in this ensemble the other day. How spunky is my boy!
