Coolum
Hi. Remember me? It’s been a while, and a lot has happened since I last posted. For one, I’ve gone back to a job in my other profession – environmental consulting – which means I’m back to being an “amateur” photographer. Whatever that means. But what it has meant, from a practical perspective, is that […]
Sleeklens Lightroom Workflow
I’ve been meaning to get out and shoot some landscapes for the last couple of weeks, after the folks at Sleeklens sent me a copy of their “Through The Woods” Lightroom Workflow for Landscapes. I finally managed to get out the door early this morning and head out to Oxley Creek Common, an area of grazing […]
Shaun & Susan
A few months ago, Shaun and Susan got in touch looking for someone to shoot their wedding. Except it wasn’t really going to be a wedding. More a party at the Regatta Hotel, during which they would get married. They didn’t want the whole wedding package – formal bridal photos and all the trimmings. Their […]
Point Cartwright Dreaming
I had a trip up to the Sunshine Coast last weekend, to shoot the Sunshine Coast Marathon. Since I had to arrive the day before, I figured it would be a great opportunity to get out and shoot some landscapes, which I haven’t done nearly enough of recently. The weather didn’t really play along, but […]
Craft Beer Industry Conference & Awards
A little over a week ago, my phone rang. There was a lot of noise in the background, and the caller explained that she was in a beer warehouse. “There are worse places to be”, I thought. “What are you up to next week?”, she asked. Luckily, I was free all week, so was brought […]
Environmental Portraits – Harmony Vision Care
Environmental portraits. They’re always much more interesting than a headshot in front of a white background. Taking portraits in a person’s home or workplace helps to tell their story, or the story of their business. Generally, environmental, or location portraits provide more context than a traditional studio portrait, and help subjects be more relaxed in […]
CEDA Lunchtime Events
As well as travelling around the place and getting up early in the morning to cover events for Supersport Images, I’ve also recently photographed a couple of events in Brisbane for CEDA – the Committee For Economic Development of Australia. First was an event on investment and competitiveness in the agribusiness sector, and the second […]
Springbrook National Park
Recently, I’ve mostly been photographing people. Corporate portrait, events, promotional, sport. They help pay the bills, but gosh I love getting out and photographing some nature. As long as I’ve lived in Brisbane, I’ve only been to Springbrook National Park a couple of times, usually opting for the slightly shorter drive to Tamborine. But yesterday, […]
