young love.

how funny... these was taken a year ago during a family photoshoot, and my little Tave came with me as an assistant. She did such a good job!

and during the "intermission" I managed to take a few little snippets of these two little buddies. too cute too cute! sigh...

things i did in canberra

hello hello! many of you wondered what i did in Canberra and how come there's no photos posted on my blog about it. keep your pants on... here are some of the cute picsies i did... i got to shot this super cute little family (well, not so little when you have 3 gorgeous kiddies)!

yes, i went to the JinkyArt Workshop and totally went head over heels with the whole 3 days i was there. I fell in love with Barb and Erin from JinkyArt, also to the 11 other lovely photographer friends from across the globe! 9 of them are from all over Australia, 1 from the Philippines and 1... believe it or not, lives 3 minutes away from me! hahaha, yes Jamie, i'm talking about you!
Easily one of the best weekend I had in my life (beside marrying Jeremy weekend and the weekend I gave birth to Tave of course.) so thank you everyone for making it so memorable and lovely! xo

Big holler to first time moms this year for Mother's day! yay!!!! isn't this so cool! a day just for us?!

easter bunny. literally.

I had to post these photos. HAD to! this is my second EVER easter egg hunt... in my life. In Indonesia, we never had easter egg in a eatable chocolate form...

Aunty Joy hid all the Easter eggs and bunny for each member of the family (loves!) and scattered mini chocolate eggs for Tave to find them too. Obviously in the easy place that us grown up wasn't allowed to spot and take. Much much fun indeed. Sneaky sneaky Jeremy got me my favourite! Ferrero Rocher!!!!!! and it's soooo big and tasty it puts a big huge grinny smile on my face! Bless my hubby, isn't he so lovely? (the answer is YES!)

Then we had some company for lunch... the Himys!!! Beth played well with Tave and if you seen in one of the pic, Tave was serenading to her... well, she tried to get Beth to dance... funnies thing, whenever we sang the chorus of Beyonce's single ladies, she wiggled and danced! soooo cute!

buddha bebe :: baby Cooper

C for chubby - chubby fat baby... I do pray for one of those one day... for me to keep. obviously.

Let me introduce you to Kim and Pete's little man... Judah Zion Cooper. When I met him first time, he was just in his dream land talking back and forth to God and the angels.... I know it! Then, his nosy parents woke him up for a photoshoot... poor kid. hehehe. I honestly didn't mind him sleeping... He is adorable and I could eat him up!

All I can say... glorious fat!!!!!!!!!! love them!
Congratulations Kim and Pete on your little champion! You guys are awesome first time parents!!!!! Jez and I love you three!

tea party in the fairyland.

All girls love pink. I love pink... but only since I turned 20... good thing I got married when I was 21, I dressed all my bridesmaid in pink. hehe... imagine if I got married earlier, I would've put all my bridesmaid in orange 'cos that colour used to filled my whole wardrobe! Jeremy can vouch for me on that one.

Happy 1st birthday miss Mylie. I can NOT believe time flies by that now you're one and walking already! I remember my first visit to the hospital when you just arrived in this world... you were tiny and I had the priveledge on changing your wet nappy on your first day!!!!!!!!

Anyhow, Tave brought a teaset as a present for miss Mylie moo and they played together for quite sometime until the Wiggles took over on TV. I think TV is evil....... took away all those precious play time and fellowshipping between our kids!

keys to my heart.

this certain little miss certainly holds one of it.

ps. did i mention how cute her love curly hair looked like?!

2010 is just around the corner

another sweet family to photograph!!! this Perth family came to the Gold Coast and when they asked me if I could picture their moment together... ahhhh how could I resist?

the cutest family ever I have to admit.
ahhh I love what I do!
