WPPI wedding album award woohoo!
The Eastern have a new CD,…. buy it now!
The weather was predicted to go bad …. REALLY BAD.
I’m not criticising the judgment of weather forecasters but it created an unnecessary sense of foreboding for the day as ugly weather was on its way (supposedly). The ugly weather never showed …. Ballantynes made a few extra umbrella sales that day.
I love the crazy unpredictable [...]
Time suddenly disappeared as I spent last week photographing four weddings, the buskers festival, and having a birthday.
I have seen enough acrobats and jugglers to see me through the year. Weddings I can never get enough of, And birthdays … even though I was spoiled, one a year is good enough for me.
I will post [...]
Christmas came early for us this year …. 6 months on …. Ida Valentina makes our lives richer and happier.
It has been a challenging year for all of us. At Moda we were very lucky to have Susie working behind the scenes to keep the wheels turning whenever we were distracted by our new project [...]
We went away to Byron Bay (Australia) for a break (our first family holiday) before the wedding Season got out of control.
We stayed at a wonderful house on the beach in a place called Suffolk Park.
Our accommodation had private access to the beach.
On the 5th day there I went to the beach via the public [...]
Dumbo Feather is the thing that you believe in that you allows to achieve the seemingly impossible
Baby Ida is the star today.
To take the perfect photograph you need the perfect camera.
The perfect camera is the one that gets the result.
Its not about the number of pixels. It is about the effect of the camera on the image creation.
Sometimes the pixels matters but for me ‘more emotion’ beats ‘more pixels’ every time.
The more fearsome your camera, the [...]
We have some friends who live in the future. Its true!
All of their time pieces are set to 15-20 minutes fast. Their microwave and their car clocks!!!
The quantum part of this gets complicated because they also exist in our world (15 minutes behind theirs.)
They are seldom late (in our world) .
As a photographer I have certain responsibilities to my clients that take precedence over my own photographic urges.
I was working on something for a friend … their wedding images with some music.
I put in a bit of Tom Waits and a beautiful rendition of Pokarekare ana.
There is the power to move people in the right combination of music and images.
Quentin Tarantino talks of this power. He talks about the true Cinematic experience. [...]
I have several unconfirmed speaking opportunites coming up …
I wondered what insights I might offer. I also wondered what people wanted to hear.
I realised there are way too many experts offering the answer … well actually they would offer a reason for the answer and then sell you the answer in a box at the [...]
Postcard series
Jeremy and Jo were married on Saturday.
We were lucky enough to be a part of their great day, We were proud to be there.
Postcards from a series of 6
the first of a series of six postcards
Before I was married I used to write in a diary when I needed to get stuff out of my head.
I knew that if I had burdened my friends with the random thoughts I was having I would probably have run out of friends.
Its a thing that many of us do … it helps with [...]
Philip’s brother said that when he gets older he wanted to be cool and funny like their uncle.
Philip said ‘but you aren’t even cool now.’
How true. We often hope that the future somehow has the answers when really we are the answer, … or not.
I met Luis once in my travels. He was a photographer and adventurer.
When I travel I get to look at myself from a distance. I get to stand away from myself. I get to look at others and wonder at the differences.
Luis is the antichaos.
Simple, dark, well pressed clothes.
Colour coded order, and all that might [...]
