The Beyond Snapshots blog is an ever evolving project. We are really thrilled to be featuring photographers and their personal photo stories in the Life Is A Photo Op series and this week we started ...
I am convinced that it all started in a seedy motel room in Utah. My asthma that is. By way of a three month long bout with pneumonia that followed me home from Alt Summit in Salt Lake City and left ...
I dread trips to the mall with the kids. For many reasons. One that might not be at the top of your list, but weighs heavily on my mind is the the high likelihood of balloons on offer. Heck even the ...
A fellow photographer pointed out that my images on Instagram were so very different than those that I shoot with my DSLR and I had to agree. It was not a qualification of one being better than the o...
Sponsored by Nuffnang and Yoplait A few weekends ago saw me shooting in the late afternoon and evenings, so Sunday was the day we decided to bundle up a bit and go for a family picnic. One of the thi...
Probably because it does not often happen in real life raising 3 kids, I just love it when things work well together on a regular basis. For the longest time I was shooting RAW + JPEG and just workin...
It is no secret that I have been loving the ability to do Instagram from my phone now that it is on the Android platform. What does that have to do with the 10 on 10 series, you may be wondering̷...
Yay! I am super excited! I love to talk… especially about photography. Something we are working on right now is a Twitter party on photography. The Beyond Snapshots team will be on hand (online...
For almost two years I have been using flash ONLY when ABSOLUTELY necessary. Not because I don’t like flash or think it is something to be feared, but because my SB-600 had met an untimely end ...
I forgot to download the little Minox camera shots from our holiday over Easter, so this morning I get to sit at my computer and revisit our trip once again. It is kind of like finding a roll of unde...
This post is sponsored by Nuffnang and Yoplait I think there must be a part of every ex-pat soul that feels the need to keep moving. The problem is that when we move and get settled, daily life takes...
How do I balance it all? That is a question that I get asked a lot. My only answer is that I never balance, I blend. I merge. I shuffle life and work together like a deck of cards. It is how I never ...
These images were all shot on a day when were were happily holidaying away up in Merimbula, New South Wales. We got an early start and took an adventurous day trip to the local dairy farm (ice cream ...
My children feel the same. Kieran happily became our gull chaser keeping our lunch safe from those sneaky winged bandits. I already miss the beach as I upload the cards of holiday photos onto ...
We had a wonderful vacation in a tiny house up the coast of New South Wales. There will be stories and photos galore, but for now I am uploading one shot of my silly three doing their best “Sal...
Yesterday I lost my temper. I came upstairs to find the playroom floor covered in brand new crayons all snapped in half. (Ninety six of them…we counted later.) While I was steaming over what I ...
so we are finally, four years on, prepared this year. Thanks to Julie at Cradle Rock and her large selection of Oobi kidswear, my girls are rocking the super cute bunny look.
She was born here. While she is technically also an American, to her, Australia is home. It may seem strange that I am mentioning that fact, but I had not really given that much thought until this pa...
… The book. Our book. I remember emailing Peta through Facebook with my crazy idea. The cafe where I wrote the book proposal has long closed down. The babies I rocked in a pram next to me as I ...
Coming soon… a project in locating the past. Clover wears the pale aqua Layer Cake Tutu by tutudumonde.
We went up (out?) to the country on Monday to celebrate Australian labor (labour?) day with friends.. Ok, not really to celebrate labor (labour?) day, but that is why we were able to go on a weekday!...
Something about the moment frozen in silence that heightens the feeling of danger for me…like the instant in real life right before something bad happens where one recognizes the inevitable and...
I am really enjoying the challenge of these 10 on 10 shoots (even if I did almost concede defeat this time around with two mirror shots by the 8th hour). I have decided to give myself a different gui...
It is not Ben 10′s fault. I don’t even know Ben 10. We have never seen the show, but somehow Kieran has heard through the warped grapevine of toddler chat around the tiny kindergarten wat...
Post sponsored by Nuffnang but as always, my words, content and photos are all me. When we moved to Australia we made the conscious decision to become a one car family. We knew that Melbourne had a p...
It is not always about the face in commercial kid photography; especially kid fashion. It is a different type of job with a dual client (the designer and their customer) and that means you mustn̵...
So we took the opportunity to celebrate the now with an impromptu sea swim before the kids went to bed. And here I sit just a few hours later appreciating then with photos before I turn in for the ni...
I don’t do client sneak peeks. Not here. Not usually that is. And I have many reasons. Here is abridged version of how things came to be. I started photoblogging on flickr seven years ago to pu...
Sometimes I begin to feel my work get stagnant like the shallow water in our neglected baby pool. I hesitate to get into my photography when it is like that. Inspiration drying up usually means I am ...
We have been really play testing our BigW clothes for the last week. I am happy to say that not only do they look great and wear well, they come through the wash looking just like new. I am always wo...
