2012

Happy New Year to you and your family.

We wish you all the best for 2012.

I’ve been a bit away and was so busy being involved in several projects that I really haven’t had the time to update this space.. but new year resolution is: DO MORE.

More meaning higher end of the market rather than quantity kind of thing.

As you may know,I am investing more and more my time into editorial and fashion work and the demand is high.

I am also in the process of redesigning the Nomad Photography website (www.nomadphotography.com.au) where I will redesign the interface to separate weddings, portraits, events, fashion and editorial work.

In the mean time, to keep your patience and interest growing, here are a couple of images from a shoot I did last year, just before Xmas. I called it WTF for Wild Troubled Flowers.

WTF is a concept mixing the softness and delicatessen of weddings and the edgy and glamourous of fashion and a bit of boldness. Not that wedding is no glamour but …

I could have called it Wedding T. F but it’s not always about wedding … at least in the shoot..

Annette & Tim e-Session

It was a wonderfully warm morning today for an engagement shoot.

As a major sponsor for last year Your Local Wedding Guide wedding fair, I gave away an engagement shoot for the winner of the major prize.

It happened that Emma and Ben, the original winners of the prize, couldn’t make it to the shoot so they decided to donate their prize to Annette and Tim. I must admit that the session was real fun and Annette & Ben will exchange vows next March so the present was really good timing and greatly appreciated by the young couple.

I won’t have the joy to capture their wedding but as mentioned, I had good fun shooting their engagement.On the side, Annette will also be the maid of honour for Emma, the original prize winner, for her wedding.

Congratulations to you all guys. It was great spending the saturday morning with you.

NNTM

Who’d have thought that winter would have been that busy.

Quick update on the NNTM hunt (Nomad’s Next Top Model) with our winner officially announced: Brittany Murphy.

Brittany is a talent from Goulburn who is very fun and committed. She came to each of the photo shoot with plenty of enthusiasm and charms.

It was a very fun session last Sunday. It was a very special shoot because it was on Father’s Day and I’d like to thank all the talents involved:

Make Up: Aimee Benge, Cherie Salerno and Bindi Kelly

Hair Stylist: Our original hair stylist, Sarah Jayne Burke, had a problem with her car and could not be part of the shoot, lucky my guest photographer, Jenny Fisher, saved the day with her hair styling expertise. Bindi Kelly was the other hair stylist for the session.

We had Daniel from Sanguineti Media, and his crew (Sarah and Michael) for the behind the scene video of the photoshoot.

The shoot was at the White Room in Mitchell. Canberra. I used a Hasselblad H4D40 and Profot gears.

Here are some image from the shoot.

Street Photography – Update

It’s been a while since my last post here. I must say that Canberra’s winter kept everyone hibernating and everything is like coming to a slow down… Luckily I’ve been very busy with a trip over seas (US) for a mix of business and family break.

During the period, I spent a lot of time getting back to one of my favorite photography activities: Street Photography.

These are taken exclusively with a Leica M9 that I just added to my gear bag.

A few weeks taking photo with this baby, I must say that I knew (heard) about Leica for a while, My dad used Leica since the M2, now shoots with an M8 and an M9, but I only just tasted it with the M9.

Leica’s legendary reputation is TRUE. This camera is really awesome and the more I use it, the more I like it. Who wouldn’t?

PS: I am updating my website and the blog as well so check back often.

 

 

Winter in Canberra

I drive by this road almost everyday just to noticed that the scenery is quite different his year and for cause: It’s the coldest Canberra Winter that I know of, since I live here.

I couldn’t resist to the temptation to catch some of the early lights of the day.

What would be a good reason to jump out of the warm bed at 6 in the morning to drive all the way out in the cold, it was -0.5°C on a Saturday morning?

You let me know if the images below are worth the effort.

I packed a few lenses but use the 50mm f/1.7 Calr Zeiss exclusively for these shots.
