work and play
Melissa August 24th, 2008
I’m still on holidays but managed to squeeze in a little work at the same time. Only, it wasn’t really work. I spent the day with the infamous (well at least in Bayport) McQuade clan who have been very special friends to my mother and I for many years. Due to a pretty lucky coincedence all bar one family member are visiting at the same time I am- the opportunity to get a family photo was too good to pass up so out came the camera.
Here they are Grandma Lou and Grandpa Jack:
and their gorgeous grandchildren:
and the whole clan (except one- we missed you Pat!)
I’m on holiday
Melissa August 20th, 2008
Just a quick note to let you know that I have fled the rain and am currently on holiday visiting my family in New York.
I have sporadic access to email/internet so will try to get back to as many emails as possible but I was only able to log on today for the first time so I have a good few to get through.
I will return on the 28th refreshed and ready for action!
Here is a quick little shot of Lily at the beach (taken with the camera Santa gave her last Christmas).
Double trouble

I was recently chatting with a photographer friend about cropping in really close for children’s portraits. Sometimes even ‘chopping off’ half of a face. The very next day I had these beautiful twins in the studio. Now, I have many full face and full body images from the shoot but, personally, I like this one the best…mom might or might not agree!
What do you think, why not leave a comment to let me know if it is (in the words of Hesch on The Sopranos) good, or…not good.
and baby makes 4

I spent some time with another favourite (growing) family recently. I have photographed these lovely people since bump number one so was delighted to return for bump number two. It also gave me a chance to catch up with baby supermodel Michael. Michael features prominantly on my web gallery- I must post the photo here since it is one of my faves. Here are a few images from our latest shoot- I was feeling a bit panoramic when I processed these.
Good luck and I look foward to the text!
