When Annie contacted me about having an extended family session done as a surprise for her Mum who was turning 70 years old, I was really excited. Not just because I love the idea of a sentimental gift like photography but because Annie is one of 5 siblings and 2 of them were coming from afar to be there for the session and for their Mum. Louise and her husband, Mark, and their 2 children came all the way from England and Liz travelled from Cairns.

I was a little nervous about the crazy weather we had been having but was so pleased when the day turned out to be sunny and gorgeous.
Take a look at this beautiful extended family of 9 adults and 10 children. What a great way to grow up being surrounded by so many aunties and uncles and cousins.
The best part was that everyone was heading off for a 3 day holiday to the Hyatt Coolum as part of the birthday festivities!
What a beautiful way to celebrate your 70th birthday – being surrounded by your children and grandchildren who love you so much.
