One of my (Fiona’s) long time besties Jasmin has been living in New Zealand for the past 10 years or so- we usually get to catch up once a year for never quite long enough… so we decided when Jasmin visited this week, we would take some fun portraits together. (Well, Jasmin and I decided and just told Adam of course- thankfully he was obliging- albeit a little begrudgingly haha)
We were terrible clients, totally awkward, running late and not organising a baby sitter – so Adam was playing Dad and photographer all at the same time (You are amazing Adam!)
Grateful for this girl in my life. Always constant, always wise, lives with faith and always has a long winded story and a laugh to share haha. The best kind of friend (as Anne of Green Gables would say) “a kindred spirit”! ♥ you to the moon and back Princess Jasmin!
Here are a couple of photos of the little critters behind the scenes that Daddy shot over his shoulder. Grateful they were only slightly mischief and fairly well behaved while mummy had her photos taken Aren’t they adorable?!
And here is me and Jazzy when we were wee little 20yr olds – so stylish! Bless “Free Comic Book Day”. It was a really great day, we met a gorgeous little frenchman with a wonderful curly moustache and got a free comic book or two. Fabulous!
What precious memories. Gorgeous.
What an adorable family. I was so sorry to hear about the accident, and relieved to hear of the brave mans speedy recovery. Thank you for sharing your story with us. We can all use the reminder to treasure our loved ones and take more time (and photos) together.
these are just magic. Love xx. How did you get them in the sky like that!!!!
Silly clients for cancelling on a night like that! And good on you for taking the opportunity to make use of it.
Chelsea… it’s all pretty tricksy! We scratched out heads for a while trying to figure out how to do it yet still get the bottom of the plane in (as if we sat it on something, it would be hard to make it look “natural” in the post processing. In the end we decided to hold the box. It is two images joined together. One shot of the box being held from the front- and the other being held from the back:)
Beautiful family!!! Lovely photos as always. x
Thanks Nykie!
Precious! Love the touch of the aviators 😀
Haha Catriona, I actually didn’t know they were called “Aviators” until after the shoot when someone mentioned it… even Adam laughed at me. I just put him in those because we didn’t have any goggles;) Worked out for the best!
