Right, let’s do this thing, day 2 of my 5 posts in 5 days and I’m bang on track. On my 2nd day in KL I spent half a day pottering round the world’s largest undercover bird sanctuary which was pretty different to anything I’d done before. Where I live in Adelaide backs onto Linear […]

When I left the salubrious Kapalai resort in Borneo last year my thoughts were along the lines of that place was incredible, a truly once in a lifetime experience, little did I know that just four months later I’d be back to shoot a wedding! Kapalai is kind of like a cross between Kevin Costner’s […]

We’d all been watching the weather all week. You’d think that arranging your outdoor wedding one week before summer in the driest state of the driest continent on earth would guarantee a rain free day, but weddings never go to plan and everyone was on tenterhooks….. although it certainly didn’t feel like it when I […]

I caught up with a good friend last night who I’d not seen in a while. He asked me how my trip was and I really didn’t know what to say, at first I didn’t know what he was talking about! I soon figured out he was talking about Borneo, you know, that place I […]

It’s frightening where things end up once you put them out there on the World Wide Web. Keen followers of my blog will surely remember this particularly amazing entry in April last year.

Those of you in Adelaide will be well aware of what’s happening at the moment, and let’s face it, you’ve probably had just about enough Lance-mania for the decade, but those overseas might be impressed to learn that Adelaide is currently hosting the Tour Down Under which features none other than global sporting icon Lance […]

Yesterday I was under the pump. Most people I shoot have a passing interest in photography at best, they know what they like but don’t know their f stops from their ISO – which is brilliant! You see, when people aren’t heavily into something they’re easier to impress, a nice bokeh (blurry creamy dreamy background) […]

Wow, I’m up to 50 posts now in this blog, who knew it had legs? (actually, I think we all probably knew it did, I mean, it’s a socially acceptable way of being completely self indulgent which is right up my alley – especially when combined with photography!).

There was commotion by the door, I stopped mid-sentence and ran full speed towards her, along with more paps than I’d seen in my life. Our cameras were prepared hours ago, manual focus, exposure and flash were set and locked in with duck tape, all for this very moment, there would be no mistakes. She […]
