How beautiful it is to be able to eat ice cream with your best friend, on the back deck.
Summer afternoons are heavenly.
Ice cream dripping down little fingers and hands, even more so.
A childhood right of passage.
Happy Monday, friends.

The sun was out smiling today.
It was a beautiful day in the garden.
You proudly helped daddy plant some new trees in the garden.
(Or, should I say, daddy helped you plant new trees).
Everything had to be done by you.
Your sense of responsibility and purpose astounds me to no end.
And then, when it was time to give the trees a drink,
Naturally, this task was also yours.
And Cleo bounced in to join in on the fun too.

I love a man who knows how to accessorise…
I was wondering if these were yours or your daughter’s. xD
Hahaha he is so funny! I thought it must have been Mia.. then i saw the tiny feet. Adorable!
That is just too adorable!
Oh Charlie x
Hee hee, make sure you tuck this away for his 18th and/or 21st 
Too cute! I wouldn’t mind a pair of them for myself.
OMG, rofl.
Another boy who is obsessed with shoes!!! They are awfully fun to wear, Charlie Bucket!!!

Books are wonderful creatures.
They excite the mind, harness creativity and grow the spirit.
As a child, I had great love of books – many of which I have given to my own children to read.
I am so thankful that they feel the same way.
Tonight, That’s not my truck… was on the menu.
As well as giggles.
Many giggles.
Miss Mia knows how to make presentation count.

So it’s cold, windy and raining outside.
In January.
In Summer.
However, rock concerts in the play room are perfect to pass the time.
Wow… Someone cool must have given those two gorgeous kids those awesome gifts!!!!

I can’t stop chuckling at Charlie!!
Oh this is A.D.O.R.A.B.L.E … they have so much funk and personality shining through!

Oh so magical <3
Lovely wedding and beautiful setting. I love everything about the bride and everything about these photos. While you cannot make memories for the people you photograph — you offer them vivid reminders by capturing their moments of happiness. I am sure these people are forever grateful. It must be a sweet honor, as you call it. Congratulations! I am big fan of your work and i am grateful for your inspiration. You see (and capture) beauty in everything. Thank you for reminding us of the joys of life.
Kristen
Gorgeous Gorgeous Gorgeous. As always.

Its strange that I should enjoy them so much when your photos always make me feel so inadequate as both a photographer and person! LOL Stunning photography and stunning brides… how are there so many beautiful people in the world!!?? LOL
Just an absolute pleasure to spend a few minutes immersed in such loveliness. Your work is always so very beautiful.
Oh.. this is simply awesome…
Breathe taking!! From start to finish!! Timeless images!!

Dreams were few and far between last night for you, Charlie boy.
A nasty cold set in overnight and cuddles were all you wanted this morning.
As we rested together and I rubbed your back to comfort you,
Your breathing slowly started to change.
Dreams have come back to visit you.
I type this, quietly, hoping they stay for a bit longer yet…
Love to you, Charlie bucket! I hope you are feeling better soon… but how can he not with some Mummy snuggles. This is so beautiful and peaceful… love it so! xo
LOVE this, kristen… beautiful words, beautiful image.
what a beautiful peaceful moment. makes me long for my little ones. they are now 12 and 9 and diapers are a thing of the past.
Really beautiful.. goosebumps.
you make EVERYTHING look stunning.
wish I could follow you around for the day and watch in awe!!!
Such a sweet image with beautiful words. Every parent can relate to times such as this when their sweet babies were not feeling well and cuddle time with a backrub made the whole world better…
Poor little poppet … I hope he felt better after a sleep.
This image is just gorgeous – I love the light and how you have used it – you are so very good at harnessing it to really make an image sing!

Every day she asks to wear a dress.
And no outfit is complete without her pearls.
She is motherly, determined, and just the right amount of crazy.
She knows calling me ‘mama‘ (instead of ‘mummy‘) will get her just about anything she wants.
I lie.
It gets her everything she wants.
My children also know that calling me mumma, will get them anything! I can’t resist <3 she is so grown up now! Love that smile – my z just lost her top tooth today so that intact smile makes me nostalgic already
She so looks like you Kristen. She’s gorgeous.
Awww i my two know that the ticket to making me melt is calling me “Mama” too! So sweet. Beautiful photo Miss Mia1 x
more like you every day!! just beautiful! (And yes, Mama is my new name with Ash, makes me feel like I still have a baby on my hands
What a gorgeous little lady!
She’s a spitting image of you! Such a gorgeous little lady.
Beautiful little smile. and such a little lady…wearing pearls
This is such a sweet photo. She does look so much like you xx
such a pretty face. gorgeous smile, like her mama.
My comment is gone! I wrote one early this morning. Now to remember what I said! I can’t get over the fact that I feel like I am looking at you, Kristen, when I see this photo! That smile… oh, that smile… is all YOU! She is so incredibly beautiful. Love Miss Mia so much!!! xo
I just had to tell you, Koby kissed Mia last night before bed. She’s really beautiful apparently.
Oh my gosh. I just read Kerianne’s comment about feeling like i’m looking at you, and she took the words right out of my mouth about her SMILE. It’s exactly YOUR smile. She’s so lucky, because you have the BEST smile.
What a stunning black and white!
She looks like she is having so much fun
Pearl? She is fabulous!
Oh my word, does it feel a little like you’re looking in a mirror when you look at her Kristen? She is so sweet.
They are self-confessed opposites.
Yet their respect and love for one another couldn’t be more compatible.
This is the true story of how opposites attract.
In the most extraordinary, tender and radiant way.
A connected and present truth bonded by the beautiful differences that made them see the world in a new light.
Yes friends, this is their story.

Tonight’s bath involved scrubbing pen scribbles off your arms, legs, hands.
It also included scrubbing your drawings off your sister’s arms, legs and hands.
Note to self: do not leave pens within reach of a two year old.
