Trash The Dress

I have posted this shoot on both my blogs as it was such a fun shoot.
I hope you enjoy them.

I met up with Tammy & Mark at the Marriott Hotel at Surfers Paradise, they were in the bar getting into the "Spirit of things", Tammy and Mark were wonderful to work with, she was keen to try anything I suggested, and from our email chat she knew what i was looking for.

We had both seen a lot of "Trash The Dress" images and to be honest we both said that were a little bored with them, beautiful images but, there didnt seem to be much fun being had. Tammy and I had exactly the same ideas, When you do something like this it should be fun, We set out to do just that.

First we went to the Gold coast spit and got some great images of them on the jetty with some waves breaking over the sea wall, and on the wonderful rocks on the jetty, then it was back down the pub for a bit more getting into the" spirit of things" before we hit the beach, oppersite Sea World.

The sun had pretty much gone down and it was just what i wanted, we had to work quickly, Firstly I had them do a few runs up the beach and in the surf to get things rolling, then we got them into the sea, Tammy and Mark were both having a good time and it really showed on there faces and in the images. My thanks to Heath & Greg who came along to assist and get a few images, i cant wait to see what they came up with.

Thanks guys you were great.

Tuesday 22.1.08

This is the 3rd time I have shot Sarah, she is a lot of fun to shoot, always brings a lot of costumes. Sarah loves having her photo taken and this time brought her boyfriend Justin along, he was a little shy but with some encouragement soon got into it.


This was the first time i really had a chance to play with my new lighting set up, the Huge light box that I used in this shoot gives an amazingly soft light that is very complementary

Outdoor Family Portraits

Matt and Chris worked for the same company and spent time together out of work. When theay asked me to do a shoot for them we went to a park in Cleaveland that they take the family too, and I did the photoshoots together. It was a really great afternoon, the little girl was not keen to have her picture taken but that is all part of it.
