Casting Call - family #1

Meet Sarah and Paul and their 2 little munchkins, the first photoshoot for our recent casting call!

We had a really special morning chilling out at Coburg Lake, feeding the ducks, playing in the playground and hanging out together. This is what I love about my new lifestyle photoshoots... I feel like I'm part of the family, enjoying getting to know families in a much more holistic way than previously. I spent a couple of hours with these guys, but we could have quite easily have kept going for another 2.

Considering the fam had just come home from a trip to NZ the night before and were a bit jetlagged and on NZ time still, the kids were in fabulous spirits and never stopped running the whole time I was there (especially Alice!)... I do hope they both had a restful afternoon.

Thanks again Sarah and Paul, for answering the casting call for families. Enjoy your preview x

Firstly, just as we started, we had a short sharp shower - so we all huddled undercover while it passed!

 How cool is this bridge?

Ring-a-ring-rosie!

Oh! These park benches were like banana lounges!

So, mum forgot the bread for the ducks. But no matter! There was Cruskits! And not many ducks!

Off to the playground.

Thomas!

Little Thomas is 3 months old, and cute as a button! The most amazing soulful eyes, gorgeous cluck-inducing smiles, and just so full of light. I really enjoyed spending a good couple of hours chilling out with him at home with his Mum and Dad... I can't think of a better way to spend a Monday morning.

There is something so so special about watching first time parents with their children. The sense of wonder, and overwhelming love they exude just melts me. Brooke and Trav, I loved meeting your little dude, and I loved seeing you guys just mesmerised by him. Enjoy these x
