Sandalwood

I love the light in this shot.

We had a great time frolicking through the forest for this shoot with the lovely Loren, a  fresh new face at Pride models. The forecast was originally 37 degrees, but the weather decided to adjust itself to give us the perfect shooting conditions; when the sun did finally poke it's head out from behind the clouds it trickled through the  pine trees just perfectly.

We had lots of fun playing dress ups with the gorgeous pieces from Somethin Somethin boutique, the knits looked so cozy and warm! I just wanted to snuggle up in all of them.

For the first time i had the pleasure of working with a professional stylist on this shoot, the lovely Lauren Dilena. She hand picked out all of the pieces for the shoot, and as you can see the end result was amazing. It really makes a huge difference when you work with a great team.

Yesterday i had the pleasure of shooting a personal project with an amazing team - everything seemed to just work out perfectly for this shoot, even the weather!

It is always great fun shooting with a fresh new face and being able to play dress up's all morning.

Here is a sneak peek of some outtakes from the day.

Final images will be up very soon, so keep your eyes peeled!

Gourmet Gala Fashion Parades

Some of my favourite shots from the King William Road Gourmet Gala fashion parades, for the opening of the Tour Down Under 2013.

It was my first fashion parade, and lighting conditions were not ideal - the lights reflected an annoying yellow glow onto the models when the got the end of the runway, hence all the shots of bright legs! 

But i had a great time and managed to get some lovely shots.
