Zoe and Nick were married in Christchurch

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 [...]

Fishing stories

How is it that when you talk to other photographers theirs is always bigger? I was talking with four different colleagues about spending 18 hours photographing for one wedding and each of them said ‘yeah, I had one bigger than that.’ They could have said ‘thats a long time’ or ‘you must be buggered’ … [...]
