The Photo Blog Of Susan D’Arcy

Today I had a session booked for St kilda Pier…. now no no thats no a client above, the session was post poned. I was so looking forward to an evening in St Kilda though that I decided to head down with the family for a walk on the pier then a relaxed dinner down Acland St.

The above is a great example of what NOT to wear to your photo session. I still love it as its MY family and they don’t get photographed enough these days. My eldest is off at a girl friends for a few nights so it was just the younger 2 and my wonderful husband.

During january I am also doing a personal project. I often forget to photograph my family or need to hang the camera up once home for a break. So for every day in january I am documenting our lives and am making a book of it all in the end. The above is a page of the book.

Here are the other pages from today. most days I am doing just a double spread, but days like today were too much fun to do less than these 4.

My GREEN Link: Green Power

Have you changed to Green power yet? We only did just a week or two ago! Doesn’t cost any more with most suppliers so well worth it! Too easy!

Until further notice I am ONLY taking bookings for Maternity - Pregnancy sessions and Newborn/ up to 12 months old sessions.

The reason being is I have injured my hip/lower back. I am still mobile (though slow) and am awaiting answers to my care plan from here and will update as things change. At present there is no chance at all that I could chase a toddler or young children around. Maternity pregnancy photo sessions and newborns/ up to 12 months (or the non mobile child) will still be booked. I hope all my clients are understanding of this.I am able to recommend other Melbourne photographers in your area if I am unable to meet your needs so please feel free to email.

During this period I will also be moving to all ‘online’ ordering/ phone consultation ordering.

I thank all my clients past, present and future for their understanding and loyalty during this time.
