Me and two work colleges at training for school photography earlier this year in Sydney. 

I’ve been trying to revamp my website and as I lay here in my motel bed west of Tamworth I have my laptop updating my website and I’m here on my phone writing this blog…..its 8pm…..what has this crazy internet obsessed world turned me into?!?! Ah well, these are the things you have to do to run a business these days. It’s not good enough for someone to just give you a call and book in. No one calls! It’s all Facebook, messenger, email, text, Instagram message…whoa it’s had to keep track of who messaged from where sometimes. 

  
Recent maternity shoot with Karlie <3
This year I’ll try to blog more, keep my website up to date and of course Facebook…..but if you see me falling behind its only because I’m working on the job that this happens, and to me, that’s the most important part! 

  
Tahlia the aspiring model!

I called on some gorgeous local Evans Head girls to help me out
I had another local Evans Head MUHA Leanne Hinton of Fresh Image was willing to do hair and makeup for one of my shoots.
I also had Kim Forsyth of Hair and Beauty by the Beach help out with a spray tan.
And these ladies are why I love living in a small town, local business helping other local business.

And another local Symmone Chapman using all vegan Arbonne Makeup. And Tara Norris in front of the camera.

Evans Head is full of gorgeous girls, check them out!

I’ve been wanting to do a winter sun shoot for ages. Finally I found the perfect wooly jumper and the most amazing girl to model for me so it was on!

So all I had to do now was contact my beautician Mel to try lock in a time to get this show on the road.
Finally between the three of us we worked out a time that we could all see working.

And it was perfect, my model Mateeka had never modelled before but she was a total natural! From the first shot I new I was going to achieve what I imagined and more!

I decided to split the shoot into two styles, Winter Sun Goddess and a more grunge type theme.
I changed Mateekas outfit, messed her hair and re applied some more theme appropriate makeup to complete the look. She transformed from one look to another seamlessly!

The shoot was a total success, I love every frame!

No two photo shoots are ever the same, everyone reacts differently in front of the camera and it is up to me to make sure that everyone is comfortable and happy with me and the work I do. I would hate for someone to be uncomfortable in front of the camera on one of my photo shoots, not only does this make an pleasurable experience but the photos wont be all they could be.
