BABIES IN BEANIES - VOTE FOR YOUR FAVOURITE IN WEEK 2

We've had a wonderful response from our first week of Babies in Beanies. When we have tallied the votes from each site we'll announce the four finalists from week one.

NOW - to vote for your favourite Baby in a Beanie register your vote on our poll. Voting will close for week 2 at 6:00pm Friday 21st August, 2009. You can also vote at www.misschiefmaker.com.au. The four babies with the highest total votes (two highest from each site) will go into the final. You can only vote once on each site. Make sure you send the links to your friends to vote! We will also be including a judges choice from each week - these will be notified on the 4th September, before our final judging and presentation.


If you are interested in entering your child in the competition we still have some spots available on 23rd August between 11:30am and 2pm at MissChief Maker in Rodney’s Nursery, Pialligo or on Wednesday 19th and 26th August at my country studio near Royalla.

A $5 entry fee will go towards fundraising for the new Emergency Retrieval Intensive Care Cot for the Canberra Hospital. This fundraising is for the Newborn Intensive Care Foundation - 100% of funds go directly towards helping critically ill babies.
The Babies in Beanies photo competition is open to all children aged 0-5 years and mums can choose from two great locations for their children’s pictures, each celebrating a unique aspect of Canberra winters.


The prize for the winner is a framed print from Snowgum Studio worth $600, plus a $100 wardrobe from MissChief Maker.

Booking is essential. Please contact me, leonie@snowgumstudio.com.au or kate@misschiefmaker.com.au to book a time to photograph your ‘baby’ in their winter beanie.

APPA's (Australian Professional Photography Awards)




I recently received 3 awards at the APPA's in Sydney. I was sooo excited when I heard (I was away on a family vacation so I couldn't go to them. My girlfrieds Jennifer and Hilary (both great photographers) kept me posted on my progress. They even rang me when one of my images was being judged and held the phone to the speaker so I could hear one of my images being judged. Anyway I took away 2 gold awards and 1 silver which blew me away. Out of 2,400 images less than 3% received a gold so it was a great honour for me to have some of the top Aussie photographers rewarding my work.

I'd just like to say a huge thank you to Hilary for encouraging me to enter the images and also to my wonderful brides and grooms - without them none of this would be possible.

PS the little girls on the bench and the little girl under the address both got gold awards and the dancing couple got a silver award.

CHRIS IS 18 TODAY









My eldest son Chris is 18th. How fast the years have gone. Anyway I thought I'd share with you a few family pics. I'm so proud of him - he's a young man who really has his head screwed on the right way - and he's very handsome (like his dad).

I'll be posting some Babies in Beanies photos on Friday so stay Tuned!

Also if you still have the Canberra Times Panorama from this Saturday 1st August check it out - I'm featured in it for some of my wedding photography.
