Family Session | Punch Park, Balmain

As I reached the Anzac Bridge there was a huge rainbow arching across Blackwattle Bay and I knew that this family session in Balmain was going to be something special.

Given the dismal rain forecast, we were lucky to have booked an early 8am session and were rewarded with an ample break in the weather to head out to Punch Park for some muddy fun.  Cute as a button 11-month-old Lucinda revelled in the muddy puddles and the abundance of twigs and leaves on the ground and we got ourselves a beautiful Autumnal shoot.

Phillipa and Nick had previously travelled to Boston, where I'm told the Fall colours are just gorgeous.  Well, I would like to think that we managed to make the most of Sydney's version of that.

Just as the rain started to fall, we moved indoors to the family's beautiful, newly-renovated home to round off with some images of the family in their own environment.  Check out Lucinda's gorgeous costume change and "take-all-the-clothes-out-of-the-basket" routine!  Beautiful.

My thanks to Pip, Nick and Lucinda for allowing me to share these images.
