Bye Nan xxx

Last night our dear little Nan passed away, just shy of her 96th Birthday. Although we will miss her dearly, we know how much she wanted to join her loved ones in heaven. She has experienced more sadness in her lifetime than anyone should have to but now she will be reunited with her boys again ~ enjoy Nan! We will take care of Dad down here!

I took these shots in 2007/08.... Sooooooo glad I did now. Nothing technically grand, but memories of a stunning Great-Nana that I will treasure always. At the time, Nan was apparently NOT wanting her picture taken ~ why on earth would I want a photo of her wrinkles!!?? But then she would strike a pose like this! Love you Nan. Thanks for giving me these images and thanks for all of the wonderful memories, the great Palm Beach holidays will be in my heart with you forever. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Take care of her now my gorgeous Uncles xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

A beautiful maternity!

Thursday saw my very last session before bub arrives! Phew!!! I made it!!!!! It was a maternity make-over shoot with Cass ~ my good friend and childhood neighbour who will be welcoming her baby girl in October. We shared LOTS of laughs as per usual, I got to shoot with my new studio lights and we got some Gorgeous images. I did Cass' hair and make-up which was fun and possibly something that I will re-introduce next year.

During this session my braxton hicks became regular and then when I started timing things later, I realised they were exactly 5 minutes apart and lasting for 1 minute each ~ this went on for about 6 hours so I was sure she was coming! But, NO! :( Maybe I need to squeeze in one more shoot to help her along ;)

I can't share some of my favourites because Cass just looks way TOO hot :( but here are some of my other favourites. Of course we had to have the hunky big brother Liam in some shots too!

Enjoy ~ please leave me a comment and feel free to share the Blog link with family and friends xoxoxox

Kody-Kody!!!

Could he be any cuter???! Well...... more co-operative possibly!!! :) My gorgeous nephew Kody, nearing 8 months already, didn't particularly enjoy Aunty Jem's camera today. But who cares, when you are this stinking cute!

Here are a few of the keepers. My first session using my lights ~ loving it!

and just for fun... Kody's "WHATEVER" pose..... "talk to the hand!"

Less than 4 weeks and Counting!!!

Less than 4 weeks till angel #3 arrives ~ that's if she comes on time!! I am quietly confident that she will make an early arrival ~ 2 weeks hopefully :) I cannot wait to meet her!!!!!!! Guaranteed she will be one of the most photographed newborns ever!

This week I have a little session with my gorgeous nephew on Tuesday, then my final session on Thursday, in the studio with my new lights ~ yes, this natural light photographer is delving in to studio lighting and I am totally inspired :) I spent Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, learning from 3 amazing international photographers at the incredibly inspiring Inspire Me 09 Workshop. It was such an awesome experience and I feel like new doors have been opened for White Wish Photography. I am busy planning next year and hoping to have a perfectly co-operative bub by my side {or in my arms} as I work towards achieving my business goals. The plan is still to have 6 months off with my new princess, but I will be taking on select bookings so please contact me if you are interested in a session during these 6 months. As of February I will be booking shoots on Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays at this stage, so if you wish to make an advance booking, please let me know. Saturdays are usually VERY popular!

I will finish up with some shots from the workshop ~ some hot models, brilliant teachers and fab locations = shots I am proud of! As always, please leave me some love by clicking on the comments link below :) xxx
