So we stayed up to watch the NYE fireworks. We watched from Surfer’s Paradise beach. There was a party going on, “lots” of people (not many at all, if compared to Rio), and a lot of good energy. This was my second time trying to take photos of fireworks. The first time was in Vanuatu […]

I discovered that Gold Coast is cooler than Melbourne (at least for today). The forecast for the next days here is really dull: 28oC partly sunny EVERY DAY. Coming from a city like Melbourne, that the weather prediction can change from one minute to the next, having a 5 day forecast that looks exactly the […]

Now I know I said I would start the Finding your Reflection project in the beginning of the new year. Well, last minute my partner and I decided to go to the Gold Coast. We will stay there between 27/12/2018 and 01/01/2019, which means I will unlikely be able to start the Finding your Reflection […]

My Christmas present arrived early, as expected. Since I gave my partner his present mid November (due to seasonal reasons), he got mine early too (due to reciprocity 🙂 ). I was eagerly waiting for it. I had told him that I thought it was a VERY expensive gift and that I would be ok to […]

I will do a whole project on Portraits. I thought that I could start with my own. I care a lot about my self-image and I loved the photo I posted of me on the day of my engagement party. Now that I have the all (most) of the material required for a studio, I […]

To say I was the photographer in my own engagement party would be a false statement. As one of the members of the party getting engaged, I was more in front of the camera than behind it. Having said that, at the very end of the night, I did pick up my camera to take […]

*There really hasn’t been anything exciting in terms of photography happening with me at the moment. I haven’t really been out and about taking photos, mostly because Dean and I have been very busy with ‘life’. This Saturday is our engagement party, and between family events (not very interesting) and getting ready for the party, […]
View ArticleI have decided that the first Finding Your Reflection will be executed after Christmas. This Christmas period is quite hectic at the moment and getting time with my models will be difficult. I now have 4 people who have agreed to do it, and one of them is my partner. I will probably start with […]
View ArticleSo we went to Williamstown. Had lunch and went out to somewhere nice to take photos. There are good photos of Nanna, but in all honesty, the photo I likes the most may not have been what my partner had in mind, but it definitely is what I believe the best photo (getting an agreement […]

So, as I’ve mentioned in a previous post, we went to a safari type zoo here in Melbourne; the Werribee Zoo. It was pleasant, but really nothing much else to do, either: Safari Tour of the herbivores; OR Seeing the predators (carnivores/omnivores) in their cages. Most of the cages were quite spacious, not sure about […]
View ArticleI have to learn how to do portraits. I generally take a lot of event photos, but I have only done one portrait session in my amateurishness. The photos didn’t turn out bad, but not fantastic photos either. The important thing is that the client (a work friend) was very happy and impressed with the […]
View ArticleLet’s start by saying that the Moon Watching exercise will take a while longer than expected to be executed. I will postpone the the exercise until I have at least one other person (and I know who to ask) to do this with. And that person will need to be, AT LEAST in a different […]
