My favourite type of photography generally involves humans - particularly children. Before any of you highbrow types get your morals in a twist, I'm talking about family children during a family event. On Mother's Day (8.May.2010) I was lucky enough to shoot my nieces and their little friends whilst they jumped around on an enclosed... Continue Reading →
Photographs at the Royal Adelaide Show
We had a grand last-day at the Royal Adelaide Show on September 11th 2010. I've not been in a few years, so I am glad we chose a sunnier day to visit.

Photographs of DeadRed Wine Wakes

Yet there are only a few that I regularly read, particularly pages and portions that pertain most to my want to fix my life. I'm one of those kids that walked around at high-school saying "This is a stepping... Continue Reading →

My Wine for DeadReds
I've found a fantastic bottle of red for the next 'Dead Reds Wake #7' night! What are you bringing? See you there.

I know, because I've been to few wakes now, each time meeting new friends and finding great... Continue Reading →
