Top of the Rock

New York - what can I say?  Simply amazing.  One week and we barely touched the sides.  The kids and I spent the entire week with our cameras in hand.  Jaz and Will made awesome little videos on the trip complete with commentary (very cute). Before we hit Ang...

Santa Barbara

We are home from our super-fab family holiday.  This post is being written at 3.35am - so jetlag is alive and well.  The trip was incredible - everything we had imagined and more for our first o/s holiday with the kids.  They travelled so well - long flights, ...

Disneyland

We could hardly take a trip to the US without making a stop at Disneyland. I am a little anti theme park, and with the weakest of stomachs most certainly am anti-rides. But this was 3 days we needed to have for the kids and it was everything that Disneyland pr...

Bryce Canyon to Grand Canyon

As we were driving out of Bryce Canyon en route to Grand Canyon, we tried the view one more time to see if visibility had improved.  No, it hadn't, but was beautiful nonetheless. The drive from B.C. to G.C. was loooooong and boooooooring.  It all look...

Bryce and Zion

We are on Day Two of Disneyland, which is so gorgeous.  I really wish I lived in a cottage a-la Snow White.  After a morning of Disney fun Dave takes the older two for the more adventurous rides and I take Imi back to the hotel to give her a rest. It has given...

Red Rock Canyon

A little out of chronological order here. We took a very quick trip from Vegas out to Red Rock Canyon hoping to catch the sunset, but after a super long day of WPPI and shopping and swimming and site-seeing, we made it out there with one minute to spare and th...

Bryce Canyon

With a title like that, you might think there would be photos of Bryce Canyon in this blog post. This holiday has been planned for a veeeerrrrryyyy long time.  So 24hrs later, we still cannot work out, how on earth we did  not realise we would be visiting B...

Las Vegas

I had every intention of blogging a photo a day of our travels.  What was I thinking?!  Particularly in Vegas.  There is just so much to do.  The days have been full of photography goodness at WPPI, the nights have been very late - keeping the kids up to enjoy...

Out of the Office

Who knew that taking five people half-way across the world would take soooo much organising?  Wow.  I'm exhausted, but we have finally arrived at the morning we are due to fly out! We are at WPPI in Vegas, Bryce Canyon, Zion National Park, Grand Canyon, Dis...

Still Excited

Only four more sleeps until our U.S. adventure.  And it's nearly bedtime now, so that sort of makes it 3 more sleeps.  So, we are beside ourselves. There is so much I am looking forward to about this trip, but mostly it's the downtime.  I am not someone who...

End of the Holidays

We took the kids to the beach late yesterday for the last day of the school holidays.  While they hit the water, I buried my feet in the sand and there I stayed for the entire time -- nursing my sunnies, 50mm and random shell deliveries from Imi.  Now I'm not ...

Getting Excited

So, in 3 weeks we will be in Las Vegas.  Holy cow -- I am just so excited.  After a week in Vegas for WPPI (photography industry convention), Dave and I are taking the kids for a 3 week holiday.  We have been wanting to do this trip for years, and I can't quit...

A Morning to Myself

After a marathon four days of workshops, two in Melbourne and two in Sydney, I treated myself to a morning of mooching around the Rocks in Sydney.  I remembered so clearly the time my mum had brought me and my brothers and sister here for a holiday.  We stayed...

Holidays at the Coast

At least once a year we take the 10hr drive north to holiday with my mum and Tony, where they retired on the South Coast of NSW.  The kids love it.  We love it.  Everything moves so much slower -- time, people, cars -- the kids even sleep in for no apparent re...

Happy New Year

For a goal-setter and list-writer, such as myself, there is no greater day than New Years Eve.  This really is the day where we come into our own.  The perfect day for reflection, planning, laying down new ideas and resurrecting old ones, turning over every co...

The Weekend

We have just had such a relaxing weekend in the Yarra Valley with our gorgeous friends.  Tuesday and I were shooting a wedding there, so we turned it into an entire weekend of fun and chill out time.  The cabins we rented were adjoining with a massive verandah...

Reading

This week Imi has been enjoying her bed and her books.  I love when little kids do their version of reading, making up the words as they go along.  So very gorgeous. Today Imogen raided the advent calendar.  She emerged from her bedroom with the empty cardb...

The Winners

Thank you so much to everyone who entered the Blurb Photo Book competition.  I wish I had 69 books to giveaway so that everyone could have one.  We ran the Random Generator this morning and here are the results. The winners are Sarah, Joanne and Cara -- gir...

A Better Me

I am extremely interested in personal growth. I enjoy studying greatness. Anyone who knows me well often jokes about the many professions I have tried, the many businesses i have started and the numerous hobbies I have moved through searching for my passion. ...

Lunch

A perfect start to the week.  An early morning business meeting and then a relaxing lunch overlooking the bay. Dave: Ploughmans Lunch Me: Eggplant and Feta Tart Shared: Side of Fries (and if I don't mention the raspberry cheesecake - that sort of mean...
