My Blog bio picture
  • Welcome to my blog!

    Well Hi! If we've not met - I'm Lia. I'm a photographer in Adelaide, a Mummy and as of last year, a Student. I am also founder of Clicks For Kids, which is an organisation made up of Australian Photographers who donate their time and talent to raise funds for volunteers to work in Overseas areas that desperately need help. This year, we are volunteering in Thailand for five weeks, in a rural village school. Can't wait to bring you the photos.

    What else...well, I suck at 'About Me' pages. I have so many endearing qualities, it's really hard to put in just a couple. Let's see, I am really not nice until I've had at least three coffees in the morning; My house looks literally like a bomb has hit it for at least half of every week (and that's ALWAYS the day people come over, how does THAT work??); I dance like Gumby; I suffer from Foot in Mouth OFTEN, oh and 'sending texts to the wrong people' disease also; I watch alot of really bad TV while I'm editing photos...

    Redeeming features... well, I take cool photos. And let's face it, the chances of you wanting me to go dancing are slim. So for all intents and purposes, I think we are good as far as me being your photographer. (Just don't contact me prior to my three coffees, and don't freak out if I text you something that is CLEARLY for my hairdresser).

    Enjoy the Blog!

Ha! I just knew it…

My theory is correct.  At some stage or another, everybody has some connection to Naracoorte.  It’s like some magical place where people live, have lived, worked, visited, but everyone has a connection.

So I was not so suprised when I met the lovely mummy of Sam today and found that she, like myself, was a former Naracoortian.  (While most people fly the coop at some stage - they make ‘em good down there. :)  )

And just to prove HOW good they make ‘em down there, have a look below at the heavenly Samuel.  I bet  he slept all afternoon!

Looooooola, L-l-l-loooooola….

Well.  I should have known that the sister of kids artist extraordinaire, Art by Tali, would be as lovely as she is, and I was correct in thinking so.

I wasn’t quite as prepared for how cute her new bubby would be though.  As you can see below, the answer is indeed cuuuuute.  And  snuggly!  Thanks for having me over.  I had fun AND great coffee (for future clients, I will do most things for good coffee).

Enjoy your sneak peek, can’t wait to see more of little Lola.

More baby deliciousness

Oh I do have a lovely job.  A few short weeks ago I photographed this family, with the little man still cosily in his mum’s belly.  This time I got to meet him properly, and he was very well behaved – despite giving mum and dad a hard time for his first few days!

Enjoy your sneak peek, more to come.

A little man in a big hurry!

 

 On Friday I was very blessed to meet a family who managed to cope with the most try circumstances surrounding the birth of their little man, and come out smiling…which was of course what I was doing when I met this little guy.

Mr. E decided not only to come while mum and dad were moving house, but also come seven weeks early, AND in a rural SA town, meaning mum was flown by the wonderful flying doctors, while dad broke the land speed record trying to drive down in time.   Mr. E still wasn’t going to wait and gave mum a hard time by greeting her all by herself. 

He must have used up all of his drama early on however, as many weeks later, he is as relaxed as you could ask for – just don’t be taking his dummy away!

Enjoy your sneak peek.  More to come.

A friend for Sooty

On Friday I had the pleasure of meeting a lovely family expecting their first bubby, with a very curious ‘fur-baby’ named Sooty.  Whilst one would think the new baby would be taking centre stage – Sooty was having none of it.  She wanted to be included in all of the shots – but on her own terms of course!

If this lovely couple can muster anywhere near as much affection for their new bub as theirown mums clearly have for them - he will be one lucky little man.

I look forward to meeting the newest family member in due time, but for now, here is a special sneak peek of the bub-to-be.  Thanks for having me guys!
