Batblog

The Batblog is where I show off my favourite Melbourne family photo shoots, share the real stories behind them, and pass on tips for parents who want better photos of their kids (without the awkward forced smiles). New posts whenever inspiration strikes, which is often.

Sickness Still

We are all still not 100%. Kind of at work, but not really. Zakk sounds like a dying buffalo and I'm having issues breathing. Should be ok soon, but things are getting a little behind and we will be on top of things asap.

Dom – A preview

The Overton’s

  There are so many things that I enjoyed about this shoot. Firstly, how fantastic does the Gorge look. The leaves give such a fantastic amount of colour. Secondly, I don't know how many times i've said how mush I enjoy shooting older families, it's so much fun. Generally family...
