“A portrait of my children, once a week, every week, in 2013.”
Che: in the bungalow, looking older and wiser (he turns 6 tomorrow)
Poet: early morning on the edge of the rice field
Each morning we rise at 6am to the sound of hindu prayers echoing over the rice fields. Come 6pm we hear the prayers again; the children finish their dinner, shower and then fall asleep under the cocoon of a mosquito net.

beautiful images. Che does look so much older. sounds like you are having a wonderful holiday.
Wonderful light in both of these and you have captured their beauty so fabulously! x
I always like the contrast of both pictures of your kids, it captures their personalities very well. I love reading about your adventures, it's like reading chapters of a book, letting us to imagine the beautiful scenario and wondering what's next 🙂
well jel! x
Goodness me, that image of Che is breathtaking.
Sounds like you're having an incredible time.
truly special photos this week. Che has the kindest eyes. what a beautiful boy. happy birthday wishes to him!
i really feel a sense that both Che and Poet are in a different country in the recent images. the light somehow is different but perhaps you are capturing a reflection too in their eyes of the change in environment. magical.
and it sounds like paradise. enjoy the rest of your adventure there Jodi! xx
An early Happy Birthday Che! Beautiful pictures, as always x
happy birthday che! i was actually thinking that he looks quite baby faced in this shot, he looks really relaxed, perhaps the result of being on holiday and away from the stresses of normal life (and the communal small boy desire to be older, older, older)? love the vibrant green of the rice field. x x x
Jodi, your photography just keeps getting better. Both incredible and honest portraits. Happy 6th Birthday for tomorrow Che! xx
Happy birthday for tomorrow sweet Che. Captivating pictures as always Jodi. Thank you for connecting us all. xx

Hope you guys are having fun over there! It's VERY quiet here although by the time you're back we will have new neighbours (moving in today, i think).
Hope you're relaxing!

This trip sounds like paradise.
Wonderful shots! I love rice fields…

Stunning photos Jodi. I really love the the green back drop in that photo of Poet, so pretty. x
those green rice fields make my heart flutter. simply divine. x
Truly magical portraits. Happy birthday Che, what a way to celebrate! I imagine it will be very difficult to come home after staying in paradise (although where we live is quite lovely too!)
Wishing Che a very happy birthday in advance. This birthday truly deserves such a beautiful and magnificent portrait. Have a lovely holiday!
I think these are my favourite images yet!
I think this is the most beautiful image of Poet yet…and they are all beautiful
Wow, it sounds perfect. Kellie xx
wow, your good at this photography lark aren't you! I love every bit of the portrait of che, but especially his open posture, he looks so confident, and relaxed.
Stunning photographs!
the light is amazing
Sounds like bali is treating you well! On this end of Indonesia we start and end our days with the call of the Adhan. It's a lovely way to punctuate the days, isn't it?
Oh wow, Che has the same birthday as me 🙂 Absolutely glorious photo, love the light and the rich velvety blackness in this image.
Absolutely amazing – you could make a book with these portraits Jodi! Stunning. x
What glorious photographs! My son turns 6 on Friday. This age seems soo much older than 5….sob!
It looks like a beautiful dream! Hope you're having a magnificent time 🙂 xx
Jodi, I feel like I'm reliving our recent Bali trip looking at your photos! I hope you're having an amazing time!
It sounds so peaceful… and these pictures capture that peace beautifully!
Just lovely… such an air of serenity in these portraits. I agree with Sian's comment above… my first thought was that I could see the younger Che in this shot 🙂 Happy birthday to your gorgeous boy for tomorrow xx
I use to wake up to the sounds of the Muslim call for prayers when I was studying at college.
Beautiful photos. Happy Birthday for Che tomorrow.
IT sounds like you are having a wonderful holiday! Happy, Happy 6th Birthday!
Just divine. I can't wait to hear all about your trip, it sounds amazing xx
these are just STUNNING.
Breathtaking photos this week Jodi! I just adore that sweet and small little smile Che is giving you. Happy 6th Birthday to your lovely Che!
Che's Balinese outfit just seems to add to his wise look. Both portraits are precious as always.
