An Afternoon With Jasmin

The weekend finished with a couple of hours shooting Jasmin, she was such good fun and was willing to try some new things I have been wanting to try, we ended up with some great photos and some new experiences for me.

Rockhampton Show

Well it's Rockhampton Show time this makes for a busy couple of weeks mounting and packing photos, "what to enter that is the big question", so with that decision made photos packed and delivered, we wait for judging night to see the outcome, It was a pretty good outcome I might add.

The Spooners

What a wonderful family, a photographers dream twin boys, a family shoot, fun, small problem these little boys can run, and so they did with me hot on there heals for a few photos.

So The Time Has Come

I know this is probably very sad, most people drive around in the car listening to the radio. Not me! I listen to podcasts on photography on my ipod,"I know sick" but hey it's 20mins to work and back it's all learning.
Anyway to cut a long story short this guy was on the podcast saying how he had been a photographer all his life and he had never taken photos of his parents, OMG! I thought, neither have I, I should dad 83 years old, so spent a week wondering "who is my dad what is the essence of my dad" with some thought I decided we should take him to the biggest church in Rockhampton, he's a church man my dad spends more time in the church than he does at home, through you would never know it if you have meet me, so far removed, I mentioned my intention and I can say he was a little excited must have asked me 10 times what should he wear, got himself all done up and came into work just to check if what he had on was OK, made me smile. So of we went one Wednesday afternoon to take his picture in this very large cathederal.







Spent a couple of hours in the church before he hit me up for lunch, old people gota love them, we now have some great shots for all the family.
