One of things I loved most about living in London was the number of totally random events that happened there. If you’ve got a whacky idea that works best with a crowd of 100 people then chances are you’ll find them in the 10 million man quagmire that is greater London. To clarify what I […]

On Saturday I had the pleasure of shooting the stunning wedding of Leah and Andrew at the incredible Chateau Tanunda in the Barossa Valley. I went to school with Leah but she’s been living in Scotland for many years now, which is where she met Andrew and gave birth to their beautiful daughter Marlee; in […]

You know that scene in Edward Scissorhands where you first see what he can do with those things? I think he’s sculpting ice, or cutting a hedge or something cool like that. I think we can all agree it’s a pretty emotional scene. Well imagine if it were possible to attach a camera to a […]

I see you’ve found your way to my new blog address. Kudos. This will be the blog I update from here in on, the old Billo’s Photos Blog was great but all good things must come to an end. And because blogs are so much better with a photo attached here’s one (well, two actually) […]

I’ve been back home in Adelaide for 2 months now. Wow. That went fast. So far I’d have to say my return has gone extremely well, better than expected, after a few weeks of feeling unsettled I quickly found my feet and am loving the lifestyle Australia has to offer. However.

Alf Stewart would have loved it. Yesterday as I gazed out my kitchen window I noticed a galah perched upon the fence in my carport. A real life flamin’ galah just sitting there practically begging for his photo to be taken!! Needless to say I was happy to oblige, I rushed to the spare room, […]

In the unlikely event there’s any Simon Bills Blog tragics out there you may have noticed it’s been a little while since my last post. My first instinct is to explain that this is due to my impending move into my new house keeping me busy, which is true to an extent, but that I […]
