Beaujolais Nouveau and The Blues

Last night, following a french tradition on the third Thursday of November, was the tasting of the Beaujolais Nouveau 2009 at the Alliance Francaise in Canberra.

The Beaujolais Nouveau is a special wine to be consumed young. Each year, it has a particular fruit flavour and this year, after the first sip, there is a perfume of strawberries and banana.

It was a double occasion as we had a live performance by Henri Pavadoni, the original guitarist of the band The Police. Band formed in 1976.

French tradition oblige, we had good wine, good (french) food and good music.

What else can one expect ?

Bridal Magazine Shoot. Your Local Wedding Guide ed. 2010

Once again NOMAD PHOTOGRAPHY did the bridal shoot for the designer gowns to feature in the next Your Local Wedding Guide Canberra Magazine, edition 2010.

We had a full day shoot with two gorgeous models, Emma Wannell and Jordan Cohayney, at the fabulous Realm Hotel in Barton.

The artistic team from Your Local Wedding Guide Brisbane, Michael and Lyn, flew down the day before, to over see the shoot.

The make up was performed by Melissa Delfino (makeupmel.com.au) and we also had the lovely Jenny to help the girls with the gowns.

The magazine will be launched at the Canberra Wedding Fair next February so come and see us there.

It was a really exciting shoot and we are starting to select the shots that will feature in the magazine.

I can of course not put up any photo here before the publication of the magazine so you’ll have to wait for the Guide to come out :).

At the mean time, here is the family portrait of the shoot.

Thank you again Lyn and Michael and Your Local Wedding Guide to trust in our photography artistry. We’ll see you next year.

Flagrant Delit

A hotel room. Two people. A hundred reasons not to be there.

This is a model shoot with two friends model, Iulia Lungu and Shane Foreman, last Saturday at the Hyatt in Canberra.

I had a quick chat with Iulia during the week about the shoot and we talked about various themes but haven’t decided what to shoot. I usually chose a location and a theme for the shoot but really like the intrigue of the unknown and also improvise on the set.

This shoot was all but predictable. First I wanted a dark scene where the couple would be really “uncomfortable” for shooting and I planned to push them to the limits… 🙂

Well, we started quite late, around 8pm, so they had dinner before hand :)… Not easy to put the models in uncomfortable situations and positions with their stomachs full. Isn’t it ?

Hummm, I must admit that they did pretty well actually. Ther was no precise theme and I decided to improvise as I didn’t know how the room looked like.

The scene is set and I started shooting from the hall way.

Here is the first set: Flagrant Delit. Debut d’une serie noire.

Meenaxshi & Avineet KUMAR

I had a immense joy to capture one of the most exciting weddings yet in Canberra. The Wedding of Meenaxshi & Avineet KUMAR.

It was a three intensive day wedding, at least for me, as traditional Indian Weddings happen during 5 or plus days.

We started with the beautiful bride in Nicholls two days before the actual Wedding during the Henna session, traditional paintings on the Bride hands, arms and feet.

The paintings have specials meanings and it is also common that in the paintings, the name of the Groom is written in a “secret spot”. After the Ceremony, the Groom is supposed to find his name in his wife’s hand.

Here are a few images captured during that first day with the, sari, Bride’s outfit and the Henna session with the beautiful Bride, Meenaxshi Dyall, just before she became Meenaxshi Kumar.

More to come.
