Local Business Spotlight - Aromabals! | commercial photography Perth

This is the sign that greets you as you enter the home of Aromabals, natural skin care products:

Aromabals009

And so begins a visit that ignites the imagination and fires the senses.  A lot of earthy goodness, a blend of luxurious indulgence, some divine visual feasts and a sprinkling of fairy dust, and you have, Aromabals.  The blend of the two words, aromatherapy and herbals is what Aromabals is all about, herbs for your skin and aromas for your soul.

The brand is the brainchild of Leeanne Harvey, who has spent the last 20 years studying the therapeutic qualities of herbal medicine, culminating in the development of her unique range of Aromabals products. This includes Wash Rocks, Natural Healing Butter and various hair and skin care products. I personally adore the Wash Rocks (pictured below), and am lucky enough to have a selection of them in my bathroom, giving off their gorgeous aroma each time I go in there.

Many of the herbs used in Leeanne’s secret formulas are grown in her own backyard…a backyard you could get lost in exploring for quite some time!

Aromabals products can be found in stores throughout Perth, Western Australia, New South Wales, Northern Territory, South Australia and overseas.  Check the Aromabals Website for stockists, or call Leeanne direct on 0411 750 747.

Windy day at the Beach | child photographer Perth

Well, winter is certainly here.  I headed down the beach with Eli and Jaime to get them out of the house and let them run off some energy before we all got cabin fever.  So NOT a fan of winter, but they had fun, along with Woody the wonderdog.

 

Some recent babes | baby photographer Perth

I’ve been a bad blogger again :(  Honestly, to keep up with blogging, facebook and twitter is a full time job in itself!

Here’s a couple of recent studio sessions….both just the most adorable boys.  The first is Jake, one of several squishy newborns I’ve done recently (blog posts to follow), and the second is the very chilled out Rocoo, who was a complete sticky beak and just watched everything I did!

Appointment filled…. :)

Killian and curls | baby photographer Perth

Ok, so I know I am supposed to be blogging about the baby, and of course, he is beautiful, there’s no denying it.  But I just can’t help but mention his mother’s amazing curls.  How beautiful is that hair?  Sigh, I bet F hates it and has been lamenting it her entire life, but it’s to die for :)

Killian was not quite three weeks old when these were taken last week.  I love his fascination with his hands, pulling them up to his face like he’s deep in prayer!

Margaret River long weekend | Margaret River/Bunbury photography sessions

I’m supposed to be unpacking from my long weekend down south, but have suffered withdrawals being away from my computer for three days, and needed to play with some images.  We stayed in a gorgeous house on a farm about 20 mins south of Margaret River, right on the river.  A fierce electrical storm had all the kids awake on Saturday night, which made for very little sleep, but it was so cozy holed up in in our cabin with the fire raging. 

Sunday we visited Mammoth Cave, which is just spectacular…the images really don’t do it justice.  Then we headed over to a winery to meet up with some friends for lunch.   Yesterday we headed back to Perth slowly, stopping for coffee in Margaret River, and lunch in Bunbury.  I used to live in Bunbury so it was great to visit there and see all of the new developments. 

I’m currently organising a series of sessions in the south west, so if you are interested in making a booking please email me and I’ll forward you the details. 

Here’s some happy snaps from the weekend.  Love Eli’s face…..that kid is soooo hard to impress!

Pt Walter on a Sunday Morning | Child Photographer Perth

I first met Melinda, John and little William when he was just a toddler, and Melinda was heavily pregnant with Grace.  I then photographed Grace when she was a newborn, and last week I met them again for an outdoor session at Point Walter.   They truly are just the most lovely family, so welcoming…it’s like meeting up with old friends.  William and Grace are just adorable, and clearly Pt Walter is familiar territory for them!

How sweet is she? | Baby photographer Perth

Natasha was a dream to photograph. Happily awake and engaged with mum and dad, and then fell off to sleep for some nice peaceful shots. I just love that mop of dark hair!
