Photo shoot on Sunday - Fitzroy Gardens

All welcome!!!!!

Date: Sunday 26th October 2008
Time: 8am
Meet: Clarendon Street near toilets (so classy!)

Storyboards

I have never really had much of an inclination to do storyboards, for a variety of reasons... the main one being that I didn't have a clue how to use them LOL

But now I have figured it all out (really it wasn't that hard, I just needed to "apply" myself more!)

So have been mucking around with a few...... the photos aren't the best but you get the idea!



I went away on a girl's weekend in Perth a couple of weeks ago and the last one is just shots from around the garden that I took on the Saturday afternoon in the midst of a hangover after trawling the markets..... he he he

My Pippa

So now it has finally stopped raining, well for yesterday and today anyway LOL I managed to get Pippa out into the backyard to have a play and well, any opportunity to get the old Nikon out!

As usual, she was her very co-operative self and smiled for the camera and posed for me however I wanted her to.... NOT!! I was lucky to get these ones....

Chickenpox

I was asked to do a few shots for a dear friend of mine..... Unfortunately Miss S had chickenpox so I had to clean her up in ps...... I don't think I did a bad job!!!

Master A had a few marks as well which I managed to get rid of! Kids!



I really hope they like them! I had fun.

Play & Noise

Layla looked so delicious tonight with her little bow in her hair LOL

What a pity I was too lazy to go and get the flash so I compromised with bumping my ISO up to what seemed like infinity and just started clicking!

Moody perhaps? Filmy perhaps? Who knows....... I kinda like them!

Mud, Rain & Manure

A sneak peek from my portfolio shoot yesterday at Humevale (Jayne's house - just stunning!)

This is Kristy - it was her first shoot so I hope she is pleased with these!

I really enjoy taking photos of these aspiring young models - they are such fun to capture! So I have decided to take a real vested interest in this...... so I will be shooting my models under the name "Wild Cherry Portfolios" from now on... I will still have forget-me-nott for the other stuff, but I wanted something a bit funkier for the older chicks!

Jessica

This little girl was just beautiful... a bit shy at first but once she got going she was fabulous!

Studio

I can't wait to have a real one... LOL that will be a long way off though!

I was lucky enough to be invited to Amanda's house for a little get-together - she has a studio set-up in her garage which cleverly all hides away so the car can also fit in there - very clever! Now if I can just talk Damo into this...... hmmm back to reality!

So a group of us abused any child within reach with our cameras, flashes, strobes, change of clothes, change of props and bubbles galore!

A few that I like:





A great day!

Some recent work......

Vintage

Thought I would try this out.....

She is just gorgeous!

Confidence....

I think I have it... well I always did but just not in my photography!!!

Docklands & Darlings

I love this shot!

Well we had our ILP shoot on Sunday - it was FABULOUS!! I got to meet some other really great photographers and made some friends as well! The models were beautiful, the makeup artist was gorgeous, the weather was fantastic and the location superb! And my kids even behaved themselves!

Bonus!

I am really happy with the shots and have just tried out some different processing on them.

On Saturday I got to take photos of 3 gorgeous kiddies - unfortunately the 11 month old boy was a bit quick for me (or maybe my shutter speed was a little slow!) and I didn't get any good shots of him.... next time! But I did get these two girls - these are my faves from the shoot. And thanks for the champagne D!!!!!
