A beautiful Day




After my photoshoot today at Sanctuary Cove, I was keen to take a trip to the south east coast. I found my way to Fingal Head Lighthouse by accident.

Isn't this the cutest little light house you have ever seen!

I made my way to 'Dreamtime Beach' and my gosh what an amazing beach and view.

The ocean was crystal clear and so blue. The dolphins were swimming here.
I meet Steve a professional photographer today, I call him the Dolphin 'Wispher'. I adored he's love and passion for nature.



I Captured a lone 'long boarder' in the sun.



Me, Steve and a lady called Sue a 'New Yorker' stayed most of the afternoon watching for the dolphins and whales to return. Time seemed to just stand still while we chatted and embraced our luck today.

My first attempt to make a 'dobos torte' a hungarian favourite




"dobos torte"

Ok, so I have a sweet tooth. Especially when it comes to chocolate.

Today was the day to begin my first attempt to make a hungarian favourite of mine. Boy oh boy! was it a lot of work, but the end result speaks for itself.

Oh yeah, my cat was the Head Chef for the day,(see photo) so he  was keeping a good eye that I was following the instructions to a tea.

So now only those who are brave enough to attempt to create their own 'dobos torte' please follow this link:

A little bit about Christie-Lee Britten

On a crisp winters afternoon, I meet with Christie-Lee and we set off to a place called  'Pizzey Park' on the Gold Coast.

I was so delighted to meet with Christie-Lee who is Australia's next upcoming actress. She currently is the lead actress in 'The Rarity' Directed by Brian Vaughan.

We had a effortless time just taking pictures and loved how natural and how beautiful Chrisite is. She has the most beautiful emerald green eyes.

Thank you so very much Christe-Lee for this privilege!

{the polish place} Mt Tamborine





I took a drive up to beautiful Mt Tamborine, Gold Coast on a late Thursday afternoon and somehow I took a wrong turn and drove past a place called 'The Polish Place" and immediately pulled on the brakes and stopped.

As I made way down the driveway, I made a right turn and was greeted by the most well feed rainbow lorikeets I have ever meet. It was such a amazing sight. Then on my left I looked over and saw the most spectacular view ever seen and ordered a crown lager to toast the day away.

It was getting chilly on a later winter afternoon up the mountain and made my way to warm up in front of an open fire. The restaurant is very warm & so cozy, I felt very welcomed by the host as I entered their humble place.

{photoshoot} Elly "sweet cherry lips"






On a late wintery & overcast afternoon, Elly meet with me to create these stunning images.

Elly is a young & vibrant girl hailing from beautiful Beaudersert, Queensland Australia. Elly and I meet a few years ago working together and one fine day I asked Elly if I could photograph her & she was so gracious to say 'yes'. So here we are and we are so lucky the rain held off this time.

For this shoot, I also did Elly's makeup and my aim was to have a soft creamy skin - dash of cherry lips with hair loose and unperfect. To view more photo's please visit my facebook page.

{mini photoshoot} Little Chloe








A little bit about Chloe

I had so much fun for this shoot with Chloe, she was a litle shy at first. But once we made our way to the beach, she was very much in her element. Sun + Sand = Playtime.

For someone so young Chloe knew what to do. All I had to do was capture our day at the beach. 

Days like these are the best. I love this is my calling to capture moments and person in time.

Chloe is the youngest in her family. She has two olders sisters who have a true bond of friendship.

Thank you so very much Chloe, Tammy, Graig for this privilege!
