So 2010 has come and gone, the year has certainly been a crazy one for me! In Feb I added baby number 4 to our family, and come June my Facebook Page had gone nuts with bookings. At times I thought I was losing my mind, I'm sure my house was falling down around me, it had never seen so much dust and dirt, and as for the laundry, well that's a whole other story!!!! I continued my studying and learning via online tutoring and mentoring sessions, and finally made the last of my payments on my studio lighting!!!!!
I met many many wonderful clients and their families, big and small. My smallest was little Kylen who was only 24hrs old when I did his portraits, and I also had the pleasure of doing a 4 generation session - Great Gran, Grammy, Mum and Daughter....
As for personal achievements I was honoured to be asked to become a photographer for "Heartfelt" an Australian Organisation which is dedicated to giving the gift of photographic memories to those who are experiencing stillborn, premature or NICU births. A very hard but extremely rewarding job.
I'm hoping 2011 is going to be even bigger and better than 2010, there are alot of things in plan, starting with my workshops that will take off early this year, and some online mentoring also.
But below you will find some of my memorable images from 2010. These are not neccesarily favoured over any others, as I had favourite images from every session I did. But just a small glimpse into just how beautiful my job truely is.... enjoy - Jacqui xxoo
