A Spectacular Day Learning with Jonathan Dear - So Lovely Photography

Earlier this month I was so so lucky to be able to attend a lighting workshop with Jonathan Dear of Vibrant Photography specialising in lighting for wedding photography. This workshop was absolutely amazing however a little overwhelming as I have used so little in the way of lighting at weddings. In general, I tend to stay on the natural light side of things, and use my speed light for weddings when necessary, but this workshop opened my eyes to a whole new world of lighting possibilities. As a result I have already spent a bit to upgrade my lighting arsenal in preparation for my next wedding shoot.

Here are a few photos from the workshop. We were so fortunate to have not only Jonathan but an absolutely stunning couple model for us.

A Lucky Day for an Amaizing Couple {So Lovely Photography - Wedding}

Sharon and Darren's big day was threatened with some less than ideal weather. I was told on my wedding day ( which was plagued with torrential rain) that rain on your wedding day is LUCKY!!! When it comes to these two families I certainly hope that is true. These two families have joined so perfectly I can only imaged the best for them. Thank you guys for having me on your amazing wedding day.

Here I am! With My Gorgeous Kiddos!!!

Ok so this post is all about me and my kids, but I obviously did not take the photos. I have the fabulous Bek Williams of Bek Williams Photography to thank for these fabulous Images.

I tell my clients all the time that it is so important to keep up to date photos of yourself, not just the kids, so it I thought I better practice what I preach. It was a great experience, and despite my slight uneasiness about being on the wrong side of the camera.... I couldn't be happier with the result. Well almost. My hubby couldn't make it as he was playing soccer, so next year, we will try again with all of us.

Smiles And Giggles {So Lovely Photography - Babies}

I was so excited to meet this little family last month. The gorgeous smile on this little princess was infectious and I couldn't help but get a little clunky. This is such a fun age to capture!
