Self portrait time and well over due! My challenge today was to create an up to date portrait that I could be happy with despite the fact that I have been very sedentary for the past 4 months recovering from foot surgery. After hopping on the scales yesterday I was horrified to find a 1 kg gain per month for the past four months!!! Gulp. Anyway, I am back on my feet and moving faster each day so I'm hopeful to reverse that trend. Black on black and a nice tight crop seems to do the trick! Up Up and Away The new season’s crop of Up River Garlic is now sown and in a very short space of time it is up up and away! I joined the crew to help with the sowing then returned a couple of weeks later to document the progress in photographs - wow, it looks great and is powering on. Up River Garlic is a family owned business run from the Summerhayes’ picturesque property on the Deua River, up the Araluen Valley, southern NSW. Lovely thick braids of fresh garlic will be available in time for Christmas from the Moruya markets! A few weeks ago I photographed Belinda Hunt, the designer behind the label Lushington. I documented the goings on in her studio, the fabrics, the trims, the quirky embroidery designs etc. Today came the really fun part when we teamed up with model, wigs, props, the whole circus nearly. 7 outfits, 6 hours, 4 locations, 3 wigs - with the end result being some rather . . . fabulous photographs. Bravo Belinda and Samantha - Beautiful! Recently I had the fun of being the photographer to document a fabulous 1930's Hollywood themed Murder Mystery Party. In keeping with the theme, I jumped at the chance to play dress ups. I spent the early part of the evening rubbing shoulders with famous actors, writers, directors and wannabe actresses and then bowed out of the party before I could be implicated. They were all a highly suspicious bunch - each with a strong motive for being the one who done it! So just who WAS the murderer? Did the writer do it? Bravo to Stu for being the brains behind organising such a fabulous fun evening of murder, mayhem, fun and intrigue! Hi, I just realised that I have been neglecting my blog - oooops, so many fun projects on the go! Carly joined me in the studio yesterday for a fun session of portraits. We shot several different "looks" . . . contemporary portraits, business profile pics for her graphic design business, "Carly Design" plus some edgier ones for her to use for her music promotion as well. We also shot some "moving pictures" in the form of some business promo videos for Carly to incorporate into her new website which will be up and running soon. We had a busy time, lots of laughs and created together a broad range of great images! You're a good sport Carly, thanks for your good company, Helen I had the pleasure of fellow photographer Jessica King in the studio this week. We chatted and laughed a lot and eventually got around to the reason we were there together - to shoot some promo portraits for her. Fresh and fun was the brief, so here she is - looking just that! Thanks for your company Jess! |
