I’m continually amazed at how photography can reveal so much about ourselves. In my last post I mentioned that my father had passed away and the importance of photography (link). Since that sad day a couple of months later, I went for a walk with my mother. As we’re heading out the door I decided [...]

A lifetime of memories
Posted in General Ramblings on August 8, 2011 | 14 Comments »
There are few things in life that measure up to the power of the “photograph”. I find it amazing how memories can be captured in a split second. A moment in time frozen forever. Photographs often tell a story or convey an emotion like virtually no other media format can. I love how a series [...]

Earlier in November I had the great fortune of going on a Chris Hanley workshop. I’d been with him on a previous Cherish the Dress workshop and the opportunity to do something different screamed out at me! An added bonus was that the model for the day was Valentina Feula (link). Below are the pictures I [...]

I thought I’d share a follow up from my first post of ‘How I got into Photography’ (link). My journey is so exciting… I love it! I love it so much that I want to tell you about it. This update is more about the training I’ve been doing through Damien Lovegrove workshops. The Lovegrove [...]

Last weekend was the annual Newtown Carnival. This was an unexpected surprise for me given I haven’t attended the event for years. However, this year equipped with my camera made the day a wonderful experience… My buddy Graham Law took some really nice close ups and hopefully will be writing a blog post soon on [...]

So typical! I go out for a day’s shooting and it starts to rain! I had quite a few landscape locations lined up today… Oh well… I did manage to kick off a few frames which I’ve posted below:

Today I passed through Warkworth in Northumberland… it was such a nice day that I thought it would be nice to go for a drive.
Landscapes by Graham Law

It’s amazing how photography can inspire people! Every now and again, my friend Graham and I would go out for a few beers and I’d eventually end up updating him on what I was doing as far as photography was concerned. I’m just so buzzed with the whole industry! Last year Graham decided to jump [...]
Dai Robs in the Exchange pub

I had the opportunity to meet Dai Robs, a good guitarist & singer and his acoustic solo work is an absolute pleasure to listen to. I decided to go for a low-key look for the images for something a little different. When I saw Dai performing, it just seemed the right thing to do, have [...]
