She started piano lessons last year. She’s fairly reluctant to do the weekly piano homework in her book, she does however sit at the piano at least once a day and just play. She can play 15 tunes, plus the Lady Gaga song she taught herself by ear. Then there are the tunes she creates, which is...
She arrived here 4 months ago. We’ve watched her go from sleepy and inward focused to bright eyed and outward focused. She wants to touch everything. She grabbed a bag of chips right out of my hands today. She’s curious about the world and the people around her. She tried to crawl towards a plate...
Our traditional ‘1st of January’ photo to launch my January Photo-a-day project for 2017. Last year I told Ava & Anouk that next year it would be a photo of three, rather than just the two of them and although we couldn’t imagine that there would be another person in our family, we all felt...
This was one of the ways we documented my pregnancy this year. We took photos with the girls included, at 20 weeks, 29 weeks & 39 weeks. The girls love to feel the baby move in my belly. Anouk in particular asks me on a regular basis, “Is she moving?” & has her hands on...

I’m no night photographer, but I do enjoy making memories in our own city. Our pics from Vivid last year can be seen here. Vivid Sydney is a festival of light, music & ideas. It runs for a couple of weeks in June each year and even though the nights are chilly because it’s Winter,...
With Ava and Anouk we found out they were girls the very moment they were born. They were surprises. Two incredible life moments that I will never forget. This time we decided to find out a little more about who this baby is, during the pregnancy. We still wanted it to be a special memory though. At...
