We relieved my cousin of his kids today. It was stinkin’ hot here – almost 40 degrees celsius – so we invited ourselves over to my neighbour’s pool to cool down.
This is Ronan. I love to photograph him, he’s quite the character! He’s going to break some hearts when he grows up!!
I finally got to take photos of Sidney last night. The first shoot was arranged for last week but he got savaged by mosquitoes the night before. We rescheduled for Monday but it rained. So luckily we got to go ahead with it last night cause Sid’s family are emigrating to London on Saturday. Sad face.
Sid’s such a happy little boy. I brought bubbles for him and he kept saying “bubbles, yay”. When he found a stick it was “stick, yay”. When we got back to the house afterwards he had “milk, yay”. Too cute!
They’ve been living in Newtown, so we just had to walk out the door into Camperdown Park to find some great graffiti.
I love how their eyes are both looking the same direction!
He was running around …
… but he fell over a few times!
If you look closely you can see his name tattooed on his Daddy’s wrist.
Then we went to the cemetery next door to look at the big fig tree.
Stick, yay!
Then it was bedtime so it was time to go home.
Safe travels Gazza and Nomi and Sid, see you soooooon! x

Thanks girls! I'd be a happy camper if I spent the rest of my days photographing boys like Sid. He's one cool dude
Verrrrrrryyyyyy Niiiiiiccccce
What a super cute little boy! I am in love with the shot of him and his dad's arms… just perfect.
Feck!!! I wish you lived in Tipperary! It’s great you know… lots of really cute and willing subjects to photograph. Growing up tho… Need you now to immortalise their innocence so beautifully like this!
It’s a long waaaay to Tipperary! Buy me a flight and I’ll shoot them for free. Or better still, send them here on a holiday 
On Monday I dug out my passport, bundled my navigator and husband into the car and headed North! I wanted to photograph some cats and kids for my portfolio and I knew Dru had both, so off we went.
After some tea and cake [nom, nom!] Gracie showed us her ultra swanky cubby house and her bedroom …
… before roping Dave into a game of hide and seek while I took some photos of the cats!
Neville lurrrved attention and would’ve made a great model, but he’s got a bit of an eye infection, so we decided to save his moment in the spotlight for another day.
Wayne’s still only a kitten, but he was great. I’ve never worked with cats before. He was patient and let me dangle food and ribbon in front of his face for ages till I got the shots I wanted!
Gertie wanted in on the action too
When I went back outside Gracie was still running around with Dave!
Of course the fact that Dru has a young Stafford was another reason I asked myself over!!
Every kid deserves a Stafford
And a Saint Bernard too maybe!!
Thanks Dru and Gracie and Norman and Esme and Gertie and Neville and Wayne and Trevor for a fun afternoon!
