AN ADELAIDE WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER

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, […]

I’m onto my third glass of French fine wine in the British Airways lounge at Heathrow, an hour from now I’ll be climbing into my Business Class seat, enjoying my welcome Champagne, then locking down for the 24 hour flight home to Adelaide.
