Once upon a time, 4 years ago our first niece was born…
Her party this year it was all about princesses, fairies, balloons, face painting & of course fairy bread
(with couple of superheros & race car drivers to balance it out)
I think she’s a bit cute, but of course I’m slightly bias ;)
 
 
 





Last November my gorgeous nieces were Christenned, a perfect day, with the sun shining and set in a little bluestone church..





A few months ago I was invited to a gorgeous girl’s birthday party, Miss A was turning ONE!
Her heritage and family are from New Zealand, so when it was time to celebrate no better way than with a Maori Hangi
For a 1st Birthday, throw a couple of clowns into the mix, music & not forgetting a Miss A eating (or should I say enjoying!) her first ever chocolate/birthday cake.
Great to experience my 1st Hangi, and just to be there & be a part of it thanks guys, its been awesome watching Miss A grow up over the year.
 





Whilst my other half of Storytellers Photography was travelling Europe, the gorgeous Mandy from Relic Imagery 
hired me to join her photographing a wedding in Yarrawonga this June.
So I thought I'd share it here with my Hyggelig friends aswell :)  Here are some of my favourite images from the day...





No giggles today, its with tears in our eyes we ask you to help us make a difference…

Its been a hard 2011 so far with floods, cyclones and now this devastating earthquake.
Christchurch holds a special place in Hyggelig’s heart, this is where Michael was born and raised.
Its been a long couple of days for some, and whilst all our family and friends are save at this time, we still feel helpless and want to assist in even a small way.

We ask that you head to the Salvation Army‘s website and donate

http://www.salvationarmy.org.au/christchurch-earthquake.html

For those donations made over $150.00 we would like to offer a complimentary Hyggelig session*
For those smaller but still worthy donations we would like to offer a discount to the same value towards a Hyggelig session. Both offers will include a 20% coupon off any purchases made * conditions will apply

Please email us if you have any question, we can forward you details & conditions. Please forward to anyone you feel comfortable with asking to contribute.

Our hearts and thoughts are with everyone affected, here and in New Zealand.

Janet & Michael Palmer
