A Day at the Farm {Brisbane Family Photographer}

I’m sure I’ve mentioned it before…that the purpose of my recent holidays, aside from some much needed time away, was to have my very own family portraits taken. I get such joy from looking at all the families I get to photograph along the way, and often make a mental note in my head that I too must create some memories for my own family. Sure I take photos of my kids, but not as often as I would like these days. As for Trevor, well he doesn’t make much of an appearance in my pictures, and, of course it goes without saying that I very rarely ever get the opportunity to be on the other side of the camera.

So, with the kids in tow, we packed up the car and headed to a Bathurst farm so the most talented of photographers, Jen Stocks, could take our family portraits. To say she did an amazing job is, well, an understatement. There are no words to describe just how much it means to have beautiful family memories to treasure all of my own. I adore them with every inch of my soul. As always, she captures such joy and happiness and general goodness in her images. If you would like to take a look at my family portraits, you can check them out HERE

So, that brings me to the entry below, and the most gorgeous of families captured within. Meet, Damien, Jen, Dusty, Beau and Mitch. I know she knows this already, but Jen is the luckiest of ladies to be surrounded by the most gorgeous of boys…amazing beauty, inside and out.

I had such a fun time following them around their gorgeous surrounds – sigh…so absolutely beautiful – and exploring things and places I’ve never ever been. She has a dream location for photographers and it’s her own back yard. That’s so totally cool if you ask me. I’ve always wanted to venture into a crop (they’re oats if you’re wondering) to shoot and am so chuffed I got the opportunity on this occasion.

Anyway, that’s enough of a ramble from me. I hope you enjoy the rather large *blush* selection of images from a very special session.

Miss Jen…thank you once again…I so truly hope these images touch you like yours did me. xxx

Jennifer Stocks - Well, I don’t know what to say to you Nic. You have captured my family so perfectly. You just ‘got’ us, and we are not easy to get. You ‘got’ Beau’s magic smile, and Dusty’s intriguing personality and Mitchell’s happy demeanour. You captured them the way they really are, in their natural environment doing the things they do every day. I am worrying how the hell I am going to narrow down the prints I put on my wall (as you know I have limited wall space). I love them all, but I especially love the pics of my boys because you see them with different eyes to me and have captured them so differently to the way I would, yet I see the same little souls coming out. Thank you for giving me such an amazing gift. I am overwhelmed to say the least, and I know how clients feel now when they get their images.
