A collection of images gathered from both mine & Pete’s iphone’s. I love the idea of picture making and creativity being integrated into everyday life. Are you an iphoneographer?
Totally agree with your comment “I love the idea of picture making and creativity being integrated into everyday life”!!! I am a bit of an iphone photographer, only because it’s so easy and the phone is always handy. But I am not sure what to do with the photos as I am not great at editing them and they are not always great quality. Love love LOVE what you have done with these though! Would make a great mini-poster for home.

Hi Jo, thanks for your comment. No need to worry about editing, none of these images are edited, we used iphone app’s for all of them, then they are all straight from the camera, to the computer, to the blog. (only via photoshop for me to story board them). I approach iphone photography a bit like a polaroid photograph, where the picture is what it is. There are some people who do amazing editing to their iphone images too though. One idea if you are taking lots of iphone images is to get them all onto your computer & then create a photo book out of them. If you are taking them all the time then they would hold the story of your days in them. You can play with different apps, or get different looks in your images by just playing around with different types of light.

ps. my 4 year old took the image in the top right corner.. that’s me thinking, while at the computer with my thinking arms on my head & Ava snapped it!
They’re cute! Is that my munchkin holding hands with Ava (looks like her hair from behind)? I’m glad you explained the thinking photo cause I was somewhat bemused as to the pose! Now that you’ve explained it, I see what’s going on.
I love the block construction! And wow great photo by Ava. xx

Yes Katrina, that is your munchkin holding hands with my munchkin. If you look closely there is also a picture of your husband in there too 🙂
It’s interesting to let your child take pictures & then look through what they capture. You see yourself through their eyes. I was surprised at how serious I must look when she walks into the room & I am deep in thought, working.
I took these pictures of Ava this afternoon. She has grown up a lot recently, but I can still see glimpses of ‘littleness’ (and I love that). Most parents have moments of wishing their little ones would just stay small, but really we know that our children’s lives are not ultimately about our wishes, but their own wishes. I hope...
Things have been a little busy here lately. We have been working on some projects for our growing little business and really enjoying it. But the busier I get the more I appreciate slowing down. The more I appreciate the simple rituals of the day to day. As this year travels along & time just seems to be...
[…] an honour to be asked to photograph a family for a second time. The first time I photographed the Keller family, they were a family of four, now Anastasia & Xander have been […]
“mum?” “yes” “what are we going to do today?” “what would you like to do?” “make a special box for my treasures & do some painting & make a paper chain & go camping & build a camp fire & toast marshmallows & help you cook the dinner” “sounds like a plan”…
