I like to think of myself as a pretty crafty person. I made this windchime for my daughter which hangs above her side of the bedroom. Of course it looks much stranger when you stand right underneath and look up. The ball in the middle is a glass teardrop which my mother gave me when I was a child.

My boy Corey and his cousins testing out the exercise equipment at the Lion's Auction today. Corey was very sad that we couldnt take the step machine home with us.

When things get overwhelming, I like to escape for a while and regroup. One of my favourite places to do this is the trampoline in the backyard. It usually takes them a good 10 minutes before they find me :)

My first attempt at capturing star trails. The exposure was just over 32 minutes. I was pretty happy with the result but would like to have had some more brighter stars in there so maybe a wider angle lens next time :)

I found this fairy in my garden yesterday. Her name is Brianna, and she hates bananas.

Little Miss Ruby was the centre of attention today at a family shoot I had. She even gave me a little smile which made my day! I love sunday because it is the easiest day of the week for me to do photo shoots so they are often spent visiting peoples houses and getting to know their little ones.

My son was playing around with a gold tinsel wig in his bedroom which was reflecting some cool patterns in the sunlight.
It was also my twins 2nd birthday today so Happy Birthday Cameron & Sienna. I was too busy running around to take birthday photos though!

I think this looks like an owl. We had a LOT of fun tonight with glow sticks, sparklers and torches. Special thanks to Liz Davis for being awesome and teaching some local folk new tricks, and to Billy Joe for being a brilliant assistant!!!

Sometimes I love the rain, but today was not one of those days. Trying to keep little people inside and happy all day is a challenge. Thankfully it stopped for a little while and they could go out and jump in the puddles.

I love flowers. Sadly I am one of the worst gardeners in the universe. So I made my own :)
[for those wondering] - Garden hose and some chalk on the concrete with an overlay of some crazy text :S

I found a nice big paddock out the back of town tonight, but had to trek a couple hundred metres into it to get past the massive power lines! The sunset didn't dissapoint that's for sure :)

Not one of the most interesting or thought out shots I've ever done, but Corey was so proud of learning to type his name on the computer that I didn't think it mattered. Very proud moment!
