i heart facebook

i do, i really do.  simply because i get to stay in touch, reconnect and meet new people through the realm of the www!!! 
recently i got to meet up with an old friend from school and photograph her and her gorgeous family.  we had lost touch over the years, but thanks to the www, we had caught up again.  earlier this year she had asked me to let her know if i was ever in auckland so that she could book me in for a family session.
guaranteed, the two year old played up, oh how i love the "terrible two's" (but hate that they are called that).
miss two was super gorgeous and super cheeky and made for some great pics.  mr three months was super cruisy!
i really love witnessing the growth of my friend's from schoolgirls/ boys to mothers/ fathers.

precious moments

i was recently up in auckland catching up with my friends, and basically hanging out. i realised at the end of the trip that almost every day i was there i was surrounded by children. it's official, i am pretty much the only childless one amongst friends my age.
when i go out to visit my best friend, and mother of my god-daughter i always have the camera on hand. there are three in the family now and i always like to get some snaps so i can look back on how quickly they grow, especially as i see them so rarely. here a few of my fav's from the afternoon i spent with them.

 

s had a friend over, so i got a few snaps of them hanging out too.
