Editorial type shoot with the very beautiful and lovely Nikita Brown - such a beautiful girl, great heart and fantastic model. So lucky to have shot with her, despite the horrible cold windy weather we (more she) has to suffer through!. Also collaborated with Tdesign and got to shoot ger jewellery! I'll show the rest of that shoot and extras soon :) uni is keeping me busy at the moment and i'm not sleeping enough.

Wicked with Chanra










Started working on this blogpost around midnight and I'm pretty happy with it. Bringing in some of my graphic design skills here a bit :) Chandra is such a beautiful model and this was one of her first few shoots. The shoot was so much fun, it's so nice when you click and become friends with who you work with. I'd also like to add shooting in the bushes is not enjoyable for model or photographer, at all. I had so many tiny spiders on me, and I have to admit I freaked out a little. Oh well! All adds to the photos haha


Have a couple things lining up, like a jewellery shoot this Sunday woo!! So excited. So keep stalking this space, love you guys :3

more with courtney







These were my favourites with Courtney. It's interesting seeing what regular people respond to and what photographers prefer. I've also been trying to pin point my style and I guess it's quite "pretty" and very light. I definitely want to push my photographs further and create more story or push a certain idea across. There will also be future shoot with Courtney :3 excited!

water godess







Some very pretty photos I took with Courtney, a first time model. I bought some cheap string of flowers at one of those random stores I really wanted to use and thrifted the material for $3 from vinnies score!! We went to explore Paramatta park and I was drawn to the beautiful light reflecting off the stream (dam? river? i have no idea) We were close to falling in but it all worked out in the end :D Also can't forget the bird attacks we survived haha! So many cockatoos...

It was a lovely day, filled with lovely photos and people. Would also like to thank Charlene for doing the make up and chilling on the picnic blanket for 2hrs observing us from afar. Must have been sooo boring.

More photos from this shoot soon.

on top of the world

A small photo story about a girl, of feeling boundless and carefree for atleast a moment in time. 
I'm too tired to write a long romanticised notion but i just love rooftops. It was so peaceful and relaxing. A great shoot.

Road Trip > Uni Work


Yesterday was absolutely beautiful weather - sunny with a cool breeze. So around lunch time, while I was recycling catalogs that piled up in my brothers room, he said to me "I feel like driving into the city to take photos" and my reply was "hells yeah, photos over uni work all day erryday" lol so we set off out of the dingy west while blasting the Drive soundtrack hahaha. We're cool like that.

 We saw another Ferrari, the newest model. My brother waved at him but that guys face was just WTF??? lol. You can kind of see it. I was a bit slow to take the picture and the fact that the car is low and the seats are low - I present to you only the top half haha. Maybe he saw my camera and he was not pleased. I hope he didn't write down my bros number plate and him and his drug dealing buddies will come track us down D:

look at that traffic
I love passing this bridge. Feels so trippy
typical city shots
We're following you BMW
Adam admiring the reflection. No idea where we were. Martin Place?


My brother and the Rosary beads he has had since he was little and in every car he has owned, keeping him safe.


posin'
While waiting for my brother to come around


This was a bit funny, I told Adam to go back and forth here a few times while I take photos of the back and front of the car with the Opera House in the background. I even stood in the middle of the road when he was coming back and in one of the photos when you zoom in, you can see him laughing lol. There were also cars behind him but they just smiled at me, they knew what I was doing. Only did it two times because it seemed like he was doing laps and that's not cool bro.

Being the Driver


Hahah! I love Gifs. BLUE STEEL
 
 Driving home in the afternoon sun. Lens flare all over the place.

"Your Pursuits are all outstanding, though emotionally complex.... Real Human Being, And A Real Human..." Love that scene and the song.

Going through Ashfield on our way home
 It was a nice day and I learned a little, or atleast got a better idea, on how to photograph with shy people. I spent my whole evening last night editing these photos because my bro was actually pumped with them. The last time I didn't take the best angles of his car I guess and our location wasn't great so I'm really really glad it worked out this time and he's happy with them. Maybe this means he'll take me on more trips :D I love car trips!!! It'll be days like this that I'll look back on and remember fondly when I'm older.

Other irrelevant tid-bits: I saw the cray cray old lady that's always yelling in front of the TAB and she used to have a small white dog. Small world.


Also we went to Circular Quay Macca's for lunch, there was a heap of people. An old man ordered a soft serve and the cashier said "it's going to be a few minutes wait on that" he took out his hand to take back the 30c but the guy didn't give it back and he kept shaking his head and being all mad. Then when he got it he stormed out. lols


I don't like blogger anymore. This post took 2hrs because it sucks at reordering images.
