Kimmy at May Lane




















A street style shoot with Kimmy and Ali through the alleys of St Peters. We jumped on bins, slammed into said bins, ran into poles, smoked so much, climbed all the fences and rolled all over the floor. I have so many photos i'm happy with and we looked through them together in the sun. Extremely thankful for such a lovely day. Photography is helping me meet some amazing people :)

lolita


This series was supposed to be about fashion. So i set out at 8pm, found a cool empty parking lot... and got carried away. I'm happy with some of the photos but i wouldn't say they fit with fashion, dammit! But gosh i love parking garages, and all things urban. My mum kept remarking on how much i look like a doll so i was thinking of some photo series where i get "left" around in random places as children always lose their toys. Or a story on Lolita... but more on that later. Perhaps i should start a lookbook with this dress haha

  


With these last three I'm just amazed at how awesome editing in raw is! The lighting was completely orange and i just slided the colour bar right to blue and it neutralized the photos! I loved how shiny everything was after it rained, lights reflecting off everything. It was so lovely i wanted to take some photos with it. Even though they're pretty random... Also many people driving past and walking past had to stare :/ but it really wasn't so bad. Got to do what you got to do.

i like the car driving up in this one
lol i really don't know. Vampire Barbie? I miss TVD

I totally forgot about the blue lights in this block of flats. That would be so rad.

Fairfield Protest and Street Photography

This is not the Jersey Shore!!


Due to a rapidly growing population, a lot of  ugly large scale apartments have been put up that look awkward and stand out 

Police checking out their mates bike

Where else do you find a Burmese grocery?

The police car just stopped in the middle of the intersection. I knew something was going to go down
"End Detention Now! Refugees Action Coalition"

"Stop the Malaysia Solution. Welcome refugee boats"

Another new apartment complex. There have been perhaps 4 in the last 3 years built. With another 2 under construction. However, the house prices are still way too high for people in this area. I also heard a famous NRL star lives in one of the newest apartments with a rooftop pool :D :D

Nice buskin' man. We've been getting a few pop up now. There used to only be one busker, a young man with a flute. I wonder where he and his dog are now...
The Bondeno Cafe is always packed outside. Always empty inside
Some Turkish game I think

Quite proud of myself for approaching these old men for a photo. I've always been worried because of our different backgrounds and English levels, and people find cameras very intrusive. But they were very nice and simply smiled and waved :)
