Our month in photos - January 2013

I'm bit late with this one but I really want to keep going on this monthly photo project. I'm in the process of putting a book together from last years photos and will share it with you once it's ready.

January was our holiday month. My sister visited us from Finland so we did a little road trip to great ocean road. We saw 12 Apostoles, Lord Arch Gorge and buried our toes into the sand on Bells beach. January was also month of picnic's - we have had so many in different locations I have lost account.

The template has changed for 2013 - if you would like to join me and do your own monthly storyboards you can get the template from here.

beauty shoot

I have been wanting to do beauty/glamour type of shoots for ages and when my little sister visited us in January I asked her to model for me. I wanted to take some classic but feminine images of her that weren't too flirty or revealing.

These images have been taken in my bedroom with backlight and one reflector - so simple yet beautiful.

Welcome to the world - Hugo

I did this session late last year but some reason only now managed to share it with you. 

Here is little Hugo - his family were just over the moon of his safe arrival. His big sister is taking her role very seriously. She is so caring and got very excited when she got to hold her little brother - precious!
