Last week I made a deal with the universe. If my d Last week I made a deal with the universe. If my day out at the @sophieleaphotography workshop could go smoothly then the next week could be a total mess. Give me sleepless night and tantrums, if this one day could happen stress free.

Well the universe delivered! My Friday was perfect… and this week my toddler has had gastro for four days now. I haven’t left the house, I’ve been spewed on by both kids at the same time, I cancelled a creative shoot I was really looking forward to.

So I’m desperately hanging on to the beautiful moments Friday was filled with (like this one of glowing mama Monique) while I long for the beginning of fresh new week and remind myself I’m strong and I can do this 💪🏼✨

Anyone else make deals with the universe? 😅
Sweet baby Hannah 🤍 It’s the little eyebrow r Sweet baby Hannah 🤍 It’s the little eyebrow raise in the last photo for me…

Last Friday morning I got myself and 2 month old Raphi ready and out the door by 7am to get to @sophieleaphotography’s workshop on time.

I was slightly terrified about taking a baby with me. Scared he might have a fussy day, scared his crying might annoy other people, scared I’d miss out on parts of the workshop. Leading up to the day I had moments of wishing I’d never bought the ticket.

And you know what… at the end of the workshop I was in tears. Tears of gratitude to Sophie and Ash and all the incredible women who attended  for making me feel so welcome and supported.

Most (if not all) of the women there were also mothers. And while it was only @bluryphotography (thank you for giving me the confidence to even try this!) and I who had our babies with us, everyone else had left their little ones in the care of someone else. They’d said goodbye to sad little faces and got on a plane or in a car and they’d coordinated all the things that would need to happen while they were gone.

Motherhood can feel like such a lonely place but it’s moments like Friday that remind me just how connected we all are.

I walked away having gained so much knowledge and inspiration for my photography and also a new found sense of confidence in myself as a mama.

Hello it’s me! Testing out my studio space as it Hello it’s me! Testing out my studio space as it slowly comes together while I’m on my maternity leave… we quickly snapped these opportunistic photos - Ollie is wearing AFL trackies because we’d just had an incident involving poop, and at first glance it might look like he’s in on the cuddle but he’s actually busy serving us up imaginary food on tiny plates.

If you’re afraid to book a photoshoot because you think your kids won’t behave or it will just be utter chaos - please don’t let that hold you back. That’s totally normal and something your photographer is used to. Photography is not just about capturing magic, it’s about creating magic and with young kids that means playing, going with the flow, lots of moving! Don’t be afraid of the chaos, capture it because one day you’ll look back and miss it dearly.
