New website!

Happy New Year everyone! I trust that you are enjoying your holidays and are feeling refreshed and energetic for the new year.

My new website is finally up and running. Check it out at www.rebecca-olsen.com and tell me what you think!

You can choose between e-mail and RSS subscriptions (yes, I’ve finally decided to join the 21st century!).

See you all on the new site!!!

Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep

I have recently taken the reigns as National Coordinator of a wonderful charity organisation called “Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep” (NILMDTS). NILMDTS is an international organisation which originated in the USA and is dedicated to providing free professional photography to families of terminally ill or stillborn babies.

The need is great, but the number of volunteers is few.

For photographers reading this blog, I urge you to carefully consider if you are willing to become involved. If you are, please visit the website http://www.nowilaymedowntosleep.org/pageDisplay.php?page=65 and submit your application online.

If you are not a photographer, but have other skills that you wish to donate, please contact me.

Let’s make a difference.

Bright Colours

I’ve been inspired lately to get out of the studio into the great outdoors and make use of the world’s best and biggest softbox – the sky! The weather and light has been simply beautiful lately so today I grabbed Jessica, bribed her with a lollypop, and we had a great time running around our local playground.
