Greetings LaLa friends. I know it has been a little bit quiet on here but don't assume that it is because nothing is happening. 

Aside from the not-so glamourous side of managing the books, I have been seizing the opportunity to take the time to investigate new products and services which I hope to showcase when I design my new packages. I'm also excited about the upcoming wedding season, which will commence in a few weeks.

Personally, my family's 'Celebration' season has kicked off. Celebration season commences at the end of September, right through to February. In my family birthdays and anniversaries, in addition to Christmas and New Year, are concentrated within these months and it proves to be quite a busy time, as you can imagine, trying to juggle both family and photography commitments. 

So while it may be quiet now, be prepared to hear a lot more from me these upcoming weeks. Here I am sitting at my new workstation, a beautiful 27" iMac that I have to share with my husband, and sending a big *hi* to you all.

LaLa Life 37

A photo a week in the life of LaLa Photography, using various photographic mediums.

Week 37



You may recall earlier the photo shoot I did with Aleisha and Clary who were expecting their first child. Now their special delivery has arrived, baby James, and we had the pleasure of meeting him for the first time at the hospital.

My youngest Jake was not really interested in James; he doesn’t walk or talk and he can’t play with him and his brother. When asked to say hello to baby James, he gave a gentle tug at his beanie as if to acknowledge his presence.

Andrew on the other hand *loves* babies and was very affectionate to his new cousin. He showered baby James with lots of kisses and loved feeling the delicateness of James’ skin. Andrew was so excited to meet James and, appropriately, gifted him a toy train (James from the Thomas the Tank series of course). By the time we left the hospital, Andrew wanted to take James home with us!

Congratulations to Aleisha and Clary on the birth of baby James.  May you both enjoy creating beautiful memories together as a family.

I gave Andrew the big mission (everything is a mission to Andrew ever since he became obsessed with Disney Pixar's Cars2 movie) of drawing Father's Day cards for all the dad's in my family - Grandpa, Lolo, step-Lolo and Dada (his great-grandfather). 

We hope you enjoyed spending Father's Day with that special dad or father-figure in your life. I am really blessed to have such a large family filled with step family and in-laws. It can be a bit of a trek visiting them all in one day, but it is also very rewarding.
