You might well remember Mark and Kim from this earlier post about Crossfit Blenheim, and how they’ve been helping me shed the dough-like substance around my middle. Well this time Mark keeps his shirt on and it’s all about young Jack, their super cute little man.… Mark and Kim’s Family Portraits

It wasn’t supposed to be a setup, apparently. Jane and Matt just happened to be the only two single people at the dinner, along with one other couple. With several mysterious no-shows, somehow this dinner with friends started looking like a double date! … 
They’ve got the kind of energy that could run a small city for some months. If we could just plug them into some kind of downloading device, I’m fairly sure we’d all be rich. These kids are fun and full of childlike buzz, which meant I had to match their energy. … 
Blog watchers may well remember my favourite assignment ever. The images of my nephew Oliver meeting his parents for the first time have to be some of the most moving I’ve had the privilege of capturing. One year ago I blogged all about it and the Internet really seemed to approve, even places in the ‘real world’ like the supermarket had people stopping me and talking about it. …

Sara and Simon were casual friends, but this date (or perhaps not-date) was the start of something far more special. Five years on and we’re at Simon’s family’s farm photographing their E-session in preparation for their wedding next year. … 
Things are getting a great deal busier here with all kinds of exciting shoots and projects that are backing up and yearning to be blogged, and what once was just a couple of gorgeous kids I needed to show off has become a cascade of adorableness backed up and REALLY needing to be shared!… 
I’m just going to come right out and say it – I LOVE MY JOB! I love the squishy babies, the toddlers, the cheeky kids and the nervous parents. I love coming into families and getting a feel for the love and dynamics between siblings and parents. … 
I don’t know how it keeps on happening to us, but it does. Somehow we manage to find these gorgeous and friendly people to photograph, or maybe they find us? Well, either way, meet Connie and Craig, our newest friends. Connie and Craig have spent many adventures together travelling the world and living overseas, and come January their next adventure will begin – their marriage!…
