    lazy saturdays



    We love saturdays mornings in this house. Dessie heads off to play his 18 holes, we lie about in our pyjamas, watch tv, play with toys, surf the net, just waking up slowly, no hurry anywhere... me drinking lots of coffee and the kids jumping all over the couch. Then, when we finally get round to getting ready we're off to mums for a big, late breakfast with the rest of the bunch.

    Its our favourite day of the week and long may it continue.
    Time to go, their waiting on us and the sausages are going cold as we speak!

    Aidan

    I do love this age.

    Totally cute, full of character and hard to keep up with. Aidan is the fastest little man I've met yet. I was trying to get ahead of him for a few shots but he always caught up with me!
    There was lots of cuddles, kisses, tickles, giggles, exploring and fun so it was very easy to get lots of photos here. I just had to snap away as they stayed close and together naturally. Aidan seem to enjoy himself a whole lot too which is the most important thing. Conditions were perfect. Warm, balmy dry summer's night with open spaces all around and lots of natural light - what more could a photographer ask for?

    Here are a few from the session...

    Thank-you Michael and Diane for letting me photograph your beautiful boy.
    It was a pleasure.

    Just back from my second wedding in two days.
    This is when the real work begins.



    I haven't blogged any shoots this week because I've been too busy taking pictures!

    pretty little things

    On monday mornings when the madness of the weekend shopping is over, I like to venture to the back of TK Max which is my little treasure trove for frames and albums. I know most of my customers order the beautiful ultimat frames which I layout for them for their main prints but for those extra smaller, one-offs you can get gorgeous little gems like this example which you can mix and match for wall gallerys, shelves or desktops.
    They also have a small selection of nice slip-in, 6x4 albums at good prices. Definitely worth a look.

    Happy Max

    Its the season for romance but I got a little bit more than I bargained for this evening on Aidan's photoshoot. Just after this shot I received the wettest, saltiest, wide-mouth kiss ever from Max the staffie.
    Sometimes it hard to judge when to get out of the way when your looking through the viewfinder!
    You gotta love big, happy, nutty dogs:)
