Kim and I just had our 5th wedding anniversary.
She still looks as beautiful today as she did when I first met her.
We celebrated by going out having dinner at Darling Harbour and watched the weekly fireworks.

We recently had the international fleet review in Sydney with lots of navy ships from international countries visiting Sydney to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Australian fleet.
This also meant that not only were there lots of sailors in town, but also lots of navy cadets.
Aiden and I chose to visit the American USS Chosin and British HMS Daring.
The US ship is an older class ship, and from the outside fairly unimpressive.
but on closer inspection it had an impressive arsenal of missiles.
As well as guns.
The crew were very friendly and were happy to have their photo taken.
The British vessel on the other hand is a very modern ship, again with a very impressive firepower.
The crew again were happy to have their photos taken.
After this Aiden was over the ships and when he spotted a firetruck he got very excited. Lucky the firemen were pretty bored so they were pretty happy to entertain him for a while and it also gave me a bit of a break from carrying Aiden in my backpack.
After that he was hungry and wanted something to eat.

Last night was Halloween and we walked around with the kids (KC's and our kids) to do trick or treat.
Aiden was a little sick with gastro but we did managed to get him along dressed in his spider man shirt.
I was dressed up as a steam punk vampire.
When we came back I did the photo above in my home studio.

I finally managed to take the 1 year portrait of Lucas that I had planned and it turned out really well I think.
He is a big boy now and he is able to walk by himself (took his first unassisted steps just before his birthday).

The other day we went to Centennial park to take some 1yo photos of Lucas using a balloon.
What we had in mind was to take the photo down a row of trees.
...but it was impossible to get both the balloon and Lucas to behave in the same photo and the light wasn't great anyway with patches of sun and shade in the middle of the day.
We instead tried to be creative with other photos.

A couple of weeks ago we went to centennial park to take some photos of Lucas for his birthday (see separate post).
I also took this photo of Aiden running across the bridge at Centennial park.

The other day I was setting up for a portrait using my new beauty dish strobe.
I was using myself as a subject and this one turned out rather well.

Recently I have been doing a lot of work with a client in the Governor Macquarie Tower in Sydney CBD.
It has been great working in the city as the commute is a lot easier and more interesting in general.
This is the building I have been working in.
