Photos of my kids – Melbourne Child Photography

I dug out my old film Nikon F90 and some rolls of Portra NC ISO400 out of the fridge.

How sweet to feel that film travel through the camera.

How funny to keep looking at the back of my camera and see nothing but a black camera back lol.

And how utterly wonderful to drop them into the photoshop, and pick up the prints the next day.

I LOVE film – so much. Love the soft feel it has – it isn’t perfect like digital, but it has it’s own romanticism. I am going to have so much fun using up the leftover film in my fridge hehe.

(please excuse the bad scan – I only have my flat bed scanner hooked up – think I’ll have to dig out the old negative scanner too…wonder if it’ll work with my Mac)???

Every year we get together with our step sisters for our annual Xmas time bbq, with the Mitchell girls and their families. I managed to take some photos of amazing Ez’s little girl Isabel (now 4yo – can’t believe how time flies), who was a little shy at first while she got to know me again. Didn’t last long though before she came out of her shell and gave me these gorgeous animated expressions.

Jacqui – your kids photos are coming next

Henry’s photos my 2yr old nephew – Melbourne family photographer

Not a toddler anymore, he's a kid!

This year we were blessed enough to have the entire family here. My Father here from QLD and his cruises. He works as music manager on Princess Cruise lines…yup, get’s paid to go on cruises all over the world!

My brother James and his family from Brisbane, his wife Kanya and our 2 nieces, Natasha 11yo and Nalyn 6yo.

And our stepsisters Jacqui and Ez with their families too – I’ll be blogging them all over the next weeks.

And this is my sister and her family from Bairnsdale. We see the most of Gin and Ben and my cute nephew Henry as they are only a 4hour drive away.

So this is my sister Gin’s family. My nephew Henry is a bundle of curly blonde haired energy, he ADORES anything that is vehicular……brrrrooooooommmmm! The light was SO perfect this evening – we couldn’t have ordered better weather for their annual summer photos.

Beautiful Miss A - Child photography

well, we got there in the end! Melbourne’s unpredictable weather saw us reschedule 4 times I think it turned out to be! We had torrential rains, thunderstorms, high winds and finally we got a pearler! So D and T, brought sweet Miss A for her 3yo photos.

It’s plain to see that Miss A totally adores her Daddy and Mummy – it’s written all over her sweet face.

D& T – I hope you enjoy your sneak peek of your beautiful girl.

Spunky toddler, Miss H – Melbourne baby, child photographer.

Hannah was too interested in watching all the big kids playing and riding their bikes around the park to take any notice any of the tricks I could pull out of my blue bag! Such a typical industrious little tot (who is about to become a big sister). Hannah is absolutely adored by Mum & Dad, which is so obvious by these photos. Little Miss H and her sweet family are about to expand, how exciting!! We hope to meet the new addition next year

Sweet Miss H - gorgeous toddler

Sweet Baby E – Melbourne Newborn & Childrens Photographer

Mum J brought little baby E with her to for a session at my new favourite spot in Doreen. What a gorgeous, sweet little poppet, she loved being outside and really enjoyed playing in the grass.

Hey Billy Baby….Melbourne baby, child photographer

Amanda — Sun, 27 Nov 2011 10:22:57 +0000

Hey there Billy baby….Meeeeeeeow, meeeeeeow….!!!

…meet Billy, the redpoint Ragdoll. We are convinced that he is trying out for Australia’s Whingiest Cat title! Seriously, this big boy cries for food all day long, and I assure you he is a well fed puddy cat! Check out that pee’ed off face lol! Cat with attitude.

Our Billy is very difficult to photograph, the second you point the lens at him he looks away or looks down. As a result we have so few good photos of him, so I’m very happy to have captured this pic of our sweet, pee’ed off boy, the baby of our family.

5 week old baby W was fast asleep when I arrived at his home for our photo sesssion which lasted four hours. He was wide awake and very curious about everything going on around him, so much so that he would not sleep for Mum again until 11:00pm that night. Thanks so much for your patience Mum. We did manage to capture lots of cute little baby faces & funny expressions that made it all worth while.

How quickly our babies grow up. Suddenly those babies you were getting photographs of are getting big like gorgeous Miss B, Miss A & the handsome Mr J. Such a great session with Mum N & Dad R with there beautiful kids at Rosanna Parklands. I love that we get to photograph all these precious moments with such wonderful families.
