Balingup Medieval Carnivale’s 20th anniversary event was every part as awesome as we expected it would be!  The wet weather only made it seem more like we’d been transported back in time to very old England, with the rain falling over the rolling green hills creating a stunning backdrop. The committee behind the Carnivale have […]

Cockman House Wedding, Perth

This fantastic wedding was just the right sort of different – they knew they didn’t need to take the day seriously so made sure they, & their guests, enjoyed themselves above all else. There was humour, a heap of good DIY, history, a play on the idea of tradition, & a lot of laughter.  They […]

Lego is the abbreviation of two Danish words, “Leg godt,” meaning “play well.” Certainly can’t argue with that when it comes to most well-known product to come out of their factories since they launched the business in 1932. It’s synonymous with childhood. It’s a brand, and product, that is known, loved, and respected the world […]

The “Swell of the Decade” has been hitting Western Australia since Friday, thanks to a huge storm 2,000km off the coast. 5m (16ft) waves with 16 second swell periods….. Up to 9-12m (30-40ft) waves. The “Ride of a Lifetime.” So what would Bodhi do? He’d be right in there! Wouldn’t miss it for anything of […]

Our team for the WW1 Series spent 3 evenings shooting on location.  Not including preparation or travel time, we spent roughly 2 hours each of those nights on ‘set’.  Yet there are only 6 photos in the limited edition print release. So what happened to the photos that didn’t make the cut?     Press […]

My mother’s parents met during the Second World War. They’re not the only members of my family who have served their countries, but they’re the ones I knew closest. Gran was a nurse, and Pock was a pilot in the Navy. I always wanted to follow in his footsteps, and applied for the Royal Australian […]

I’ve known Paul for a decade. Four years ago, he asked the love of his life to marry him. And not long after that, they asked me to be their wedding photographer. These two lovebirds are so perfect for each other, it’s hard to remember a time that they weren’t together. I adore Nina as […]

As promised, now that the gallery exhibition is over, here are the brave words of one of my models. Miss Pixie flew out from Sydney for me in 2012, lugged costumes with her, & spent 4 hours at a hairdresser to alter her hair for a character.  We had a very full-on week of sewing, […]

Perth’s Fringe World Festival is over for another year.  We can hang up our artist passes & actually get a bit of rest & normality back into our lives.  Hah!!  Who are we kidding?! Good intentions aside, it’s probably more likely a rushed game of catch up for all the things we missed or put […]

So, this book that I’m doing on what shoes say about a person & what drives a person’s shoe choice…. There’s more than one way to take part. You can model, fill out a questionnaire or three, or you can submit anecdotes. Or all of the above. Anecdotes can be anything really.  It could be a […]

Lately it seems almost everyone I know has at least one pair of “Chucks” or a fake. I still have my first pair of One Stars that my dad bought me for my 14th birthday (a long time ago) because the shop stuffed up & ordered them instead of the All Stars I’d wanted. I still have […]
