Once upon a time...


In a land far far away, there lived a king and a queen and their four beautiful children... Unfortunately they were way too boring to write about, so you're all stuck with the Dimmock's instead!

We're a bit of a fractured fairytale.I can't promise to update every day...I'm a bit slack like that (shhh), but I'll do my best to keep it up.

And they all lived happily ever after...well that's the plan at least :oP

June / July...

Lots of these have already been posted on my other blogs so apologies if you've seen them twice!

Silhouette's with Katie...




Sometime around here Steff went for a ride with friends and found me the most stunning location. Complete with rickety old bridge, dirt roads and plenty of green.


We took Grayson and Wyatt for a test run before our first big family session out there.







And a couple from Lis...



See why I can't ever sack her? If she goes into biz on her own she'll steal all my clients :oP You can also blame Lisa for the ever changing watermarks too...I'm transitioning. Again. See, Lisa started out as my assistant. Bag carrier, prop holder, kid entertainer...you name it, she did it. Except shoot. That was my job. Then about 49 weeks ago she thought that it might be an idea if she learned what I was talking about. She started with my back-up camera and quickly upgraded to her current baby (the D300S). Eventually (like now-ish!) she's going to be too good to just "carry the bag". And with any luck one day my biz will be busy enough for 2 photographers. I think it will. Because we're awesome :o)

Anywho...back to the fun stuff (in no particular order, I might add...)




Chin chop. Don't care :oP


Ah ah ah ah stayin aliiiiivvveee... Lilli rockin out Travolta style!


Ouch!


Awwww...




Wyatt's house...







Isn't he pretty? *sigh*


I also did this...


My first family session, which resulted in my first $2000+ sale. They were awesome, and I'm so incredibly pleased that these lovely people chose me to capture their family.

LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT!!! All of them! Very awesome and nice to see the catch up posts! I will always carry the bags and entertain the kids! But i will be able to shoot too if need be! LOVE MY JOB!

A little about us...ok, mostly me...

Hey there! I'm guessing that most people who drop by to visit us here already know who we are, but just in case...

My name's Nikki. I'm mum to 4 (yeah, 4...can you believe it? No, me either *shudder*) kids, aged from 16 down to 4. My husband, Steff, is originally from the UK - I stole him away from the cold and the damp to live in Central Queensland, where he must endure almost endless sunshine and blue skies. Somehow he manages ;o)

I started this blog as a way to keep family in England up to date with our comings and goings. And it lets me show off how cute the kids are getting!

A little about me...I'm a professional photographer, I'm obsessive about Buffy the Vampire Slayer, love Harry Potter, Sookie Stackhouse (only book Sookie, not True Blood Sookie. It's an important distinction!), (the 10th) Doctor Who, cupcakes, and Spuffy fanfic (although not necessarily in that order). I'm also an extreme perfectionist with a love of the creative and original, who has a very low tolerance for stupidity. If you ask my husband, he'll tell you I'm a huge snob - I'm really not. I just think I'm better than everyone else :oP (That's a joke, ok? Pretty much).

Oh, and please leave a comment to tell me how fabulous you think I am...it makes me write faster and more often ;o) No really...that part wasn't a joke...
