24.01.2022 Session #8 - Celebrate T21 book. Hayley, Hayley, Hayley I have taken several photos of beautiful Hayley over the past 3 years but this time around she wasnt having a bar of it and yet, you wouldnt know looking at these photos! She was a #missindependent #getthatcameraawayfromme type of gal lol BUT... we got there in the end! I dont think she liked the fact I changed her outfit and tried to do her hair the moment she walked in sorry lovely! Thanks for being so easy ...going Kyia Judson!

19.01.2022 Session #4 for the new Celebrate T21 book. Chelsea was a superstar during her session and was a true professional! She is actually is sitting at the number 1 fundraising spot this week, which potentially means she might be on the inside cover of the new book! Congratulations Chelsea and let your family and friends know to keep up the great work ;-) ... She is also an ambassador for Celebrate T21 and has been involved in a number of our campaigns. #topspotthisweek #picswithmumanddad #empoweringnewfamilies #celebrateT21bookshoots

18.01.2022 Session #13 - Celebrate T21 Book Aww Henry, you are just adorable! So many babies I want to keep We were SO lucky with the weather for the session. Nicola and Dylan travelled from the ACT and spent the weekend in Wollongong, however, that was the weekend we had a torrential downpour! We had a break in the weather on the Sunday morning and decided to brave with a studio session as backup. Within 15mins of finishing the rain came back in full force!... LOVED this session so much, I love to be able to see our kids grow over the months and years. Henry was the little baby being held in the backrow by Trent for the Vanity Fair shoot I did back in February. Shout out to mum, Nicola who also runs Insta for Celebrate T21 and does the posts for #MileStoneMonday and #FabFridayFeels - Thank you for all your awesome help.

17.01.2022 Session #10 - Celebrate T21 Book Gorgeous Claire and her beautiful mummy, Megan! Claire was so delightful during her session and immediately took to the camera. She was a real gem and that hair! Her mummy was so relaxed and obliging. I put her through several outfit changes and she just went with it. This super mum had 3 of her 5 children on set, including a newborn of a few months old, she was amazing!... This was an extra special session as Megan runs the T21 Mum Australia Network and they will be featured as a support network in the new book. I joined T21 Mum Australia when my Claire was just a few weeks old. Looking at my baby girl I felt a need to connect with other mums who had been where I was. Over time I began to offer to help more and more, running events and organisation social media campaigns, until one day the amazing Joelle Kelly decide to take a step back and handed me her baby. #CelebrateT21NewBook #SupportSection #EmpoweringFamilies #IWantHerHairColour #MummyandMe #MumsHelpingMums Special thanks to Ann Young Photography for the loan of the gorgeous Dollcake dress Claire is wearing.

15.01.2022 I shared a beautiful little Kane with you last week here he is still snug inside his gorgeous Mummy, Vanessa and when this loving family eagerly awaited his arrival.

12.01.2022 This is gorgeous little Lord Virat (4 months old) and his beautiful mum, Vandana. As part of their session I was asked to do a traditional shoot celebrating Krishna Janmashtami - A Hindu festival that celebrates the birth of Lord Krishna. Vandana made all the props: Headpiece, flute and bowl for the session AMAZING! Vandana and her mum dressed Virat together to resemble Lord Krishna. The photoshoot is specifically between mother and son. "Yashoda will always be remember...ed as lord Krishnas loving mother and their relationship is much cherished and always be considered as one of the most celebrated relationship of a mother and son of all time." It was a beautiful experience and I wish them all the very best for the festival which is tomorrow. Xx

07.01.2022 Session #11 Celebrate T21 new book. Beautiful Jamie and his lovely family travelled all the way from Bungendore for their photo session.

Open shut them, open shut them, give a little clap. and just like that, success! Once again, sibling LOVE shone through in this session with another beautiful bond being displayed between brothers. #BrosDontCountChromes #SingingSongs #GetOutOfMyFaceLady #EmpoweringFamilies
