National Smile Competition | Sydney Portrait Photographer

I have been selected as a finalist in the Australia wide Smile Photography Competition …. I entered these two mud covered teens as this certainly made me smile;)This is what happens when young Aussie girls play AFL in the rain!

Look what I got | Sydney Portrait Photographer

Omg I am in LOVE! The iPhone is the most gorgeous, sexiest little thing I have laid hands on in a long time.. although once I pick up a 5D mkII that will win for sexiness no doubt;)

If you haven’t seen an iPhone, go look at one asap! Best phone I have ever had… it even has a compass so I always know which was is north for the gorgeous light heh

The Sweetness of 16 | Sydney Portrait Photographer

I recently photographed a Sweet 16 birthday party for a friend and had a ball! There was fab music, cake, dancing on chairs, high heels, laughter and even a chocolate and strawberry fondue. Everyone was in heaven! It was pouring rain that night and very windy so outside photos were impossible. I don’t usually do a lot of flash photography (well hardly any if the truth be know) but this was a heap of fun and opened up a little flash world that I hadn’t previously known existed.

Happy Sweet 16 S! May all your dreams come true!

And that isn’t me on the right hand side, having handed my camera to a bystander so I could participate in the all important hair-shake-dance with the party girl… the rumour isn’t true. Ok. right. umm yeah.

Sweet Spring Light | Sydney Portrait Photographer

We had a fabulous playdate shoot with Chantelle from Forever Bliss Photography. The kids had a ball running around in the warm spring sun. But I must say it was this little boy below that completely stole the show…. what a little star! Looks like he loves being in front of the camera;)

There were two older boys there, but this was about all I saw of them all day! They were running around having a ball and weren’t the least bit interested to sit for photos … too many places to hide, too many pretend monsters to catch, too many sticks to turn into swords:)
