AN ADELAIDE WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER

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 […]

Seven year old in the Apple store “But mummy, I’ve been asking for one since I was six” Mum “Just because you’ve been asking for it doesn’t mean you’re entitled to it. I asked for a horse since I was six and didn’t get one till I was 40” Mother/son conversations like this are what […]

Super Awesome™ (adjective) The act of being better than super and better than awesome; the highest compliment one can pay to an event or person; popularised by Dave Gerhard. Eg – that canal boating weekend was super awesome. And so it was, 12 of us had found our way to Rugby (the birthplace of rugby […]

When the opportunity arose to take Brendan’s monster lens home over night I didn’t have to be asked twice. The lens in question is the gargantuan Sigma 120-300 f/2.8L which I believe is the fastest zoom lens that extended to 300mm (for the fellow photography nerds out there!).

Alanis Morissette would have considered it ironic. It’s not consistent with my understanding of irony, but I guess they do things a little differently in Canada, eh? For me the rain was just something that needed to be worked around, and fortunately right after the ceremony when it needed to be dry, it was. The […]

With wine from France (red) and Argentina (white), an English band, Indian food and Australian photographers Nisha and Carl certainly know the meaning of multiculturalism. I was fortunate to spend Friday and Saturday taking a peek into their lives with my camera as my trusty companion as I covered their civil ceremony on the Friday […]

Anyone who’s ever been to my folks’ house will know that my mum collects owls. There’s hundreds of them filing up several shelves in the living room, ceramic owls, wooden owls, an owl my brother made in pottery class in primary school (which doesn’t really look exactly like an owl, but it’s beautiful nonetheless) and […]

What a week! I was woken this morning by a flash of light outside my window, several seconds later the unfamiliar sound of thunder followed, first time I’ve encountered lightning in London. I miss thunder and lightning, it puts things into perspective. But this was only 1 of many exciting things to happen this week.

Has the world turned upside down? If Nadal being bundled out of the French in the 4th round to a Swede, a Swede(!), wasn’t weird enough London has just reeled off her second successive sunny weekend. Insanity. I decided to head out to Hampstead Heath for a picnic with Bec and Danny, but our plans […]
