through my eyes

oh dear..

I have been very slack updating this blog..Lots of action over here but I figured I won't repeat myself. I have been busy with family photo shoot on thursday, a newborn on friday, a wedding on saturday and a lighting workshop in sydney yesterday..and today I got to breathe. *sigh* ..I love being busy so I am all good. I think just having my impending visit to hospital and the uncertainty of how long I will be out of action is making me put extra pressure on myself to get everything done before I go in. ..I am doing good though..Heres a couple of my favourites from the past few days..

i could go on..I have alot of favourites but instead I think I will go to bed. I am worn out ..lots to do tomorrow.  see you later alligators! jk

great fun!

I had a blast in Moree..despite the rain I brought with me (i am considering hiring out my services as a drought breaker if anyone is interested). 2 fun days teaching and chatting and sharing with 12 lovely and keen photographers..

5 mini sessions with spunky families and some impromptu headshots for fun! I cannot thank this lady enough for organising it all, letting me bunk at her place and generally taxing me around town..

she is beautiful inside and out! I have so many photos to share and stories to tell but for now I am very weary. Lots of talking, thinking, taking photos and travelling has taken its toll on my body. My bed is calling my name. see you soon...

off to Moree

tomorrow to teach some lovely people how to get better results from their cameras. Cannot wait for my little weekend adventure. See you on the other side! xx

trying to find a way

to help. The bushfires that have ravaged Victoria have affected my heart in so many ways..I really want to help the families who have lost so much and experienced such horrific events.  I have 2 ideas how I can do a little bit to help so head over to my photography blog, here, if you want to check them out and see what you can do to help as well. 

big week in the kaye hosehold

first I had a wedding expo on sunday that was long, hot, exhausting and so so so much fun! I loved meeting all the new brides to be, hearing about thir plans and details and generally chatting the day away. I could have done with an IV drip of coke (coca cola that is) and some air conditioning but otherwise I had a fab day and I am very grateful for my gorgeous friend Brigette for coming to help me and talk me up. Some photos of my both (not my best work..it was a cramped space and I didn't have a wide angle with me..but you get the point)

then monday, this little chicken started BIG school. Check out how excited she is..

she breezed into that classroom without a care in the world. I, on the other hand, could feel my heart beating and tried very very hard to stop the trickle of tears that escaped from my eyes. It was like a slap in the face how big she got and how quickly this happened. The worst part...when Lucy left she gave him one of her toys to Jack to look after for the day and a big hug telling him she was going to miss him. He told her he was going to miss her too, then he turned to me and  asked me who he was going to play with for the day. My heart burst with pride and shattered into a million tiny pieces all at once. And apparantly the answer of "mummy" didn't really cut it. Lucky I have a wonderful friend who let me borrow her kid for the day. The boys had a blast and lucy wasn't mentioned once. Oh, i need to show you the hat.. . check it out. It was the smallest size they have. she will be wearing that bad boy in college. she does have a pin head but really!LOL! 

I still have to share my last few photos of January but my crack at photo a day for january is over. I had the best intentions and managed it but generally life got in the way. I could never do it for a year..i have no stamina! LOL! literally and rhetorically.

Speaking of which, I am totally shattered. I have that hazy head feeling when you have gone 3 steps past overtired. It is still early for me but maybe my out of whack body clock is trying to tell me something. Plus I have got to get up early to iron uniforms and make lunches (who would have thought..I am surprising myself!)
