The Last of Summer

Well, if there's one thing I've learned living in England, it's that when the sun is shining get outdoors with the kids! So we hit the park on Tuesday and I took these pictures of my sister's friends' kids.

More from the maternity shoot

I really like the two different shots with each sibling, the older girl being the dreamier, softer one, and the younger (soon to be middle!) son more playful. The funny thing was, although the mother and I had planned the tummy shot, we hadn't told her son yet what we wanted - he just spontaneously lifted his shirt to show his belly! I can't wait for the newborn session, not too long now!

My Fabulous Freecycle Armchair

Can you believe this gorgeous little chair is kiddy size? I have been busy re-upholstering it, so far so good, although the hand-stitched bits are getting tricky. Hopefully it will feature as a photo prop....not sure how just yet, but I cant wait to play around.

Let's get this show on the road

So, being completely new to the Blogging game, I'm just going to jump right in and see if this works. I took these shots as part of a maternity session for a friend, and I really loved the dreamy look of this one, so I wanted to play with some cool actions I got from Renee Oakenfull. This one's called Vintage Kiss Me Hard, and I ran it on both the original colour version and my B&W conversion.
