In November 2014 my lovely husband gave me an India Paper Edition of Webster’s New International Dictionary of the English Language published in 1919. It spurned the Dictionary Project, a series of images inspired by the words and definitions contained in the impossibly thin pages of this beautiful old book. The latest entry is inspired… Continue reading Inspired by an old dictionary

Barek Art Timelapse
One of the really exciting things about the move away from full-time professional photography has been the way it's prompted me to plan and create things without thinking about how I might be able to use them to encourage bookings. Now I'm doing work purely because I want to, which is liberating. It's also encouraging… Continue reading Barek Art Timelapse
Merry Christmas Everyone
Today's picture post has a festive theme! Throughout the latter half of December Brisbane's City Hall is hosting a spectacular projected light show based on The Nutracker. It's really worth seeing with your own eyes, but for now I'll leave you with this highlight! We'll be taking a break over Christmas, so I'll return on… Continue reading Merry Christmas Everyone
Brisbane’s most stoic residents
Although Brisbane supports many bright, colourful characters, if you look closely there's always room for quiet ones watching the world pass by without drawing attention to themselves. It's easy to miss these two, who live near the Maritime Museum come rain or shine, I like to think that the weather doesn't get them down, despite… Continue reading Brisbane’s most stoic residents
A Blue Pole
It's no secret that we love taking pictures of people, but we also like to play around and experiment in other areas of photography. So I thought this week I'd give you a peek at one of Geoff's recent landscape photos. I love seeing the results of his photography expeditions, and I love this one… Continue reading A Blue Pole
Little Details
It's amazing how much attention is given to the little details that make up a wedding. I adore the incorporation of feathers into this bridal bouquet by Lilyvale Flowers to make it just a little bit different. This picture is another in the series from our recent styled shoot - a classic garden wedding. ~… Continue reading Little Details
A pair of sparkly bunny ears
I love shoots that involve fun props, be they giant red balloons or sparkly bunny ears. Props add a touch of theatre and can change the whole feeling of a picture. As far as I'm concerned, the more fun the prop the better. If nothing else, it lightens the mood and makes the whole process… Continue reading A pair of sparkly bunny ears
Some more Footpath Art
Last week I explained why I take photos of drain covers, and why that makes Japan so interesting for me. Today is our last day in Japan, so I thought I'd share another photo that I've added to my collection. This was taken on one of the islands in the Seto Inland Sea, which we… Continue reading Some more Footpath Art
Footpath Art
We're on holiday in Japan this week, so this week's photo post is from one of my personal projects. While it may seem strange that I have a personal project which includes drain covers, I can explain. My interest is in what I describe as footpath art, the art we walk over every day, often… Continue reading Footpath Art

Adding a bit of sparkle to my life
I've started 2013 with a touch of sparkle. I've been having fun with some crafty creations that I'm planning to use in an upcoming shoot. I'm quite particular about my crafting style, so it's meant stitching lots and lots of sequins on one by one. Still, the finished product is something to behold. Are you… Continue reading Adding a bit of sparkle to my life
