Photo shoot with my new photography stand :)

The other night on trade me I bought a new photography stand that came with a white & a black backdrop, so when it arrived this morning I was super excited to try it out! I asked Spence if he could be my model when we got home from the gym & he agreed, but when he actually found out what model meant he changed his mind, so I got to take photos of these guys instead haha....


Until he changed his mind & decided to jump in on the act :)

On the trade me listing they said you'd have to iron the backdrops before you use them cause of the creases from being folded for delivery, but since I was only trying them out this arvo & then gonna fold them back up again, I couldn't be bothered.....but now looking at these photos I totally wish I had so I'll have to be less lazy next time! Anyways I think the stand is gonna be cool to have for different times & seasons throughout the year. I'll definitely be on the hunt for a cool Halloween backdrop over the next couple of weeks :)








The white backdrop was definitely my fave out of the two....the black one shows up the creases even worse sorry - & even needed something behind it to block out the light that's still coming through






 Then we moved onto one of the boys bed sheets lol.....was a fun afternoon, but I don't think the boys are gonna wanna do it all the time, so Nat & Mell you needa send your kids round so I can try it again with some ironed backdrops sometime soon ok :)

My boys xoxo

A few weeks ago the boys went to church with matching ties so Stan asked if I could get a few pics of them when we got home....

It was then that I realised that our big boy really does have a talent for cracking out the most beautiful photo smile - an art which our little boy hasn't quite mastered yet haha

Because Spence still doesn't cooperate when he's asked to smile for the camera, the only way to get a nice photo of him is to take the pic while he's just smiling or laughing naturally - hence the reason he's almost never looking at the camera in any of his best photos. In alot of ways I love those shots even more though, cause they really capture the enjoyment of the moment xx


Anyways, I'm so eternally grateful for my 3 handsome boys & that we can be together forever. Some days they can drive me up the wall & around the bend, but my life just wouldn't be the same without them in it & I love them more than any treasure money could ever buy - wouldn't trade them for anything xxx












The out-takes on the iphone lol....it's tough work trying to get good pics!!
