Weekly Winners.
Weekly Winners is inspired by Lotus at Sarcastic Mom.
Here are my favourites from the Year Six Farewell shoot, actually, I had to cull some. There are so many but to put everything into perspective, I ended up with almost 400 shots on that day alone. Don’t you love digital photography?
Maddy & Keely.
Maddy.
Walking the line.
My beautiful, windswept assistant.
Madeline Rose.
More tightrope walking.
bridging the gap.
Imogen Martine.
Demure.
Immy & Mollie
Framed.
Together.
Friendship
“Each friend represents a world in us, a world possibly not born until they arrive and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born.” – Anais Nin.
This was taken on the evening of the farewell. AJ hates having his photo taken, so I thank my lucky stars for the ones I did get.
I love this one.
Immy and AJ.
Lily dressed up too (bless her cotton socks) she is not in 6th grade for another two years.
Year sixers three.
For those of you following the hair saga, the girls went to the hairdresser and had curls put in. I did the rest.
It cost them less than half their earnings.
On the Sunday we went into Sydney. This is the clock tower at the Queen Victoria Building.
See the tree? It starts at the ground level and goes all the way up. I’m taking the photo from the third level. So – ground, level 1,2 & 3…
We went to have a look at the window display at David Jones.
Mal was in awe.
It was too overwhelming for Noah, who put himself back in the stroller and strapped himself in. The crowds were huge. Too much for a little country boy (and for his mother and father too, just quietly). We tried to see Santa but there was an almost two hour wait. So we retreated to Hyde Park.
Mal chased the pigeons and the Ibis.
Everyone relaxed in the wide open spaces. It is a gorgeous park, right in the centre of Sydney.
The reason for our trek into the city. The girls’ were given tickets to the High School Musical stage show for Christmas. (Thanks Gran).
It was fantastic!
This might not seem like a winner but for me it represents time with my big girls and it is also a landmark photo because I had a “lightbulb moment” with working out iso on my camera.
Outside the Capitol Theatre.
“We love you Troy!”
The curly girl, in the park.
Hiding…
AJ thought he would be smart and interrupt a photo of Imogen.
Gotcha!
At home: Christmas beauty.
My first batch of Rolo cookies.
Three trees.
Gorgeous, gorgeous! I think I always say that when I come this way and look at your photos, but they truly are. And the love you have for your family shines through each of them.
They are stunning. The photos and the kids.
I love these photos.
There’s a lot, but I wish there were MORE!! I even love the simple one with the three trees.
I think Hyde park seems much more relaxing than standing in line for Santa. We had picnics there. It’s one of our favorite places.
OMG- what a week! You must be exhausted!! These are beautiful shots, Tiff. I agree with Dina- I could look at them all day and still come back for more. You really have an amazing gift. Here’s a thought- with all your spare time, set up a separate blog just for photos…
Such exquisite beauty!
Congrats to all the “graduates” and best wishes for a blessed holiday filled with love and much happiness, always.

You are so generous and wonderful to share those lovely photos of your beautiful children! Thank you! Sheer enjoyment just looking at the post.
Merry Christmas!
I love the graduation photos. The girls look so beautiful and grown up. And the park ones are gorgeous.
And yay! for lightbulb photography moments! I love it when they come along.
Lovely, Tiff just lovely..
You’ve got a lot of winners here. My fave is the one with the close-up of your daughter; the essence of a middleschooler. Sweet.
How absolutely beautiful! All of them!
Loved the second photo of AJ, it’s just perfect. As for the girls, they all looked lovely in their party dresses, and well done with the compromise on the hair
♥ ALL of these Tiff
I think though my faves are the friendship ones~those are moments they’ll always cherish & remember 
Yum yum yum.
I really like the one of Lily.
Crafty little smile.
I love the gotcha photo of AJ!
BUMMER that you were all in the city and I didn’t know about it!! We must meet up again SOON!!
Your photos are TRULY amazing!!
All are winners, every last one of them. Any more where they came from?
They are all so good. My favorite is the second shot. So sweet.
I love each and every one of them tiff! As always, but the cutie girl in the park steals my heart again, as always!
They are all amazing, but the “together” one of the girls laughing just took my breath away. So freaking cool!
Tiff, they are so amazingly beautiful, I don’t know where to start commenting!!! Too many favourites, too little time.
One thing’s for sure, your children are just gorgeous…I love this spot, family is what it’s all about and you capture that in spades. Thanks for that.
Every Sunday I come here and smile. I love your pictures and your beautiful family and how beautifully you capture them. I can’t begin to pick favorites. I love them. All.
I really have beautiful family as it was said inprevious comment. I love to see your pictures very much. I noticed that your older twins always were different clothes. Have you bought them simular clothes when they were small?
I love coming here each week to see the fantastic shots of your children!
These are BEAUTIFUL! Love the first one and the friendship shots!
Perfect as always!
Aww, Tiff, amazing photos as always. I have to say, I love the first one the best. It’s so much fun to watch your kids grow from all the way in Burbank, California, through your beautiful photography.
Your children are just beautiful and you capture every ounce of that!
If you aren’t already a professional photographer… you SHOULD be. The girls… so beautiful. So much fun!
gorgeous gorgeous pics!!!!!! ahhhhh they all look just precious!!
you should do it professionally….
BTW.what happened about the school jackets??
I love seeing pictures of your beautiful family!!
Wow… you have some awesome pictures in there!!! I don’t know which one to choose as my favourite!!! Great job!
Merry Christmas, and thanks for dropping by!
My post…
W-o-W! There is just no way for me to choose a favorite. They are ALL just so stunning and truly winners. You really do have a gift. If you lived closer, I’d ask if I could pay you to snap our family.
Beautiful shots, as always. Love the dress-up shots of all of them (Lil too – good on her for getting dressed up too
)
Your photos speak a thousand words. You capture so much emotion and each image is breath taking.
I have had trouble finding photos ‘good enough’ to print for my wall frames,.. I imagine you would have trouble deciding which ones to display, they’re all so amazing!
Your girls looked gorgeous for their big night,.. I ended up doing my sisters hair for her, she was happy and it saved Mum $80.
As always, I love all your photos, but “Together” with the 4 girls laughing under the tree – that is SO precious. It will be a photo all 4 of them treasure years from now – at least it certainly SHOULD be!
Gorgeous, gorgeous photos! I love the ones of the girls walking the line. So beautiful! Those two photos encapsulate everything sweet about being a girl in the warm season.
