Such a memorable photoshoot with Phil PhilmHaus

Two years ago 'Woman's Day' Magazine sent me off to a house 5 minutes up the road from us in Khandallah, Wellington, NZ- to do a story about an amazing couple with twins around my newly sons age, Tatjana Kane & Peter Kane. After making a connection on that job- we have been back to their spectacular home to interact with our kids together several times each month. . As we are now the most trusted of friends- I figured Tatjana Kane deserved a 'Non' Woman's day shoot to reflect the incredible woman Tatjana, is!
She's a survivor, a friend- and Partner of Peter, & mother of first and best friends to our son Christopher-& their incredible kids Mila and Jackson.
