Aimee & Chris' Engagement Party

good food + great company + fun games = lovely party ♥

Amanda, James, Sam & Locky

I had the opportunity to have a photo shoot with a lovely family on Saturday.

Amanda replied to my ad last week asking if I would be interested in taking photos of her family.

Of course I emailed her right away and said YES! 

Here are some photos taken on Saturday at Petone.

their kids were beyond gorgeous and to say that I had a wonderful time is an understatement! ♥

Weekend was fun.
Izzy got to meet Santa for the first time.
There was a lot of Christmas-y activities in the mall and Izzy got her face painted for free.
and so the countdown begins.. I can't believe it's already December tomorrow. ♥

quiet beauty.

Summer has begun.

we couldn't be any happier with the weather last weekend.

we made the most of the sun and went to the beach on Saturday and Sunday.

I wish every weekend would be as sunny and warm as the last. ♥

officially homesick.

as if I needed to be reminded of home.
