So privileged to have had the opportunity to create these sunlit portraits for Robbie and her family. You see, its been over 10 years, when the twin girls were 6 months old, since they’ve had a family portrait taken! You may gasp but it’s such a common story. The demands of a growing family, busy schedules, and the general chaos of family life makes these opportunities pretty rare.
Thank you Robbie for rounding up the troops. I’m so glad you agree it was worth the effort! :)
PS: Robbie works as a civil celebrant and if you’re after someone who’s meticulous and personable, check out her website here. Great business portrait too, wouldn’t you say? hehe..
Realised this week that my kids know very little about Chinese New Year. They are still young but I could do more. Especially given Christmas is anticipated from October these days!
So… 新年快乐 or “Sun Nin Faai Lok”, meaning Happy New Year in Cantonese, is the phrase of the day :) Wishing the year of the Water Snake brings you much happiness and prosperity.

For those interested in Feng Shui and a more detailed analysis of what the year means for you, grab a cuppa and go here.
I have been chatting with Jackie about her photo shoot since Oct last year. Her mother had set a wonderful example by having her portrait taken at 70+ years old. A beautiful framed heirloom that generations later can cherish. After achieving amazing things with her health over the last few years (going to the gym 2-3 times a week!), Jackie thought it high time to create a tradition. Thank you Jackie for your trust .. and the kick in the butt about my own exercise goals :)
