ABBA
I know some words to some ABBA songs…um.
Baby sitting
I didn’t have plans last night and I still had lots of work to do anyway so a friend asked if I could babysit for him whilst he takes his good wife out for dinner.
“No worries” I said in my best Australian accent.
As it turns out my very good friend Kelly also had last minute...
World War 2 Photos
Many years ago I wanted to research more about the Berlin wall for an Art project. My brilliant art teacher (Mrs Potter), suggested the best source of information and reference would be from a German museum. I was not expecting to get a reply but dutifully I wrote a letter and some time later I...
Looking back. 1987 ish
While clearing out my loft, I found an old photo album going back 20 years. It brings back great memories, but also reinforces how important photos are. They are our only way to our past, they remind us where we came from and who we are.
Engagement Party
I went to a friend’s engagement party. I only knew the bride and groom so everyone else was new to me. It was a challenge to get people comfortable infront of the camera; it is always good practise getting natural shots. What is always surprising is how some shots just work better than others with...
My SLR… never leave home without it!!

However, there was a moment where the low sun was lighting up the room he was plastering. He was covered in dirt, paint, glue and all sorts and there was...
Pop band, Lightbox, photoshoot
Caught up with my friends who are in a up and coming local band. It was great to photograph people who obviously like the camera with the possible exception of Joe who is the drummer. Because he’s natural a vocal person, it’s interesting to capture him through the lens. His personality and demeanor goes completely...
Africa, my dream photoshoot.
I don’t know about other photographers but one of my ambitions, for I done many but still have much to do, is to spend a considerable time in Africa and capture the grandure, the majesty yet the struggle, poverty and the humanity (or lack off) in one of the oldest continents.
There are so many vivid...
Photography weekend in London
“It was a dark and stormy night…” Well, not quite, but it was one of the chilliest days around our capital I’ve experienced this year so far. I had 3 layers on and I still felt icy.
A dozen photographers from the website travelphotographers.net gathered in London to take shots that we may not normally take....
