"Whether you can or you can't ... it's whichever you think" ~ Henry Ford (3 days ago)

Did you know?

Did you know only 30% of couples getting married hire a professional photographer, this means 70% of couples are entrusting the memories of their weddings to a friend or family member.

Did you know that family photos are the most precious memory for your kids, especially little ones  They love to sit and look at their whole family in a photograph.  If you as the mum or dad are taking the photo you won’t be in it and you’re children will be asking “where are you in this picture”?   I’m speaking from experience here as “the one” usually behind the camera and missing from all the family photos.

Can I encourage you to invest an hour out of your year to have some professional pictures taken with you all in them. Invest in your family with images that will tell your story.  Ask anyone, “what would you take if your house was in an emergency?” and 9 out of 10 people will say their photographs … me included, it’s certainly the one thing besides my family that I’d grab!

Another tip!  Get your images printed.  Think about this … going to a photographer who gives you a disc – 7 out of 10 people who get a high resolution disc and no prints never get any images printed.  Truly?  Sadly yes!

Faced with a disk of images, you as the client need to worry about taking them to a great lab (you wouldn’t want to get them printed anywhere else but a pro lab).  Unfortunately, most images are kept in the computer and are never seen the way they are meant to be seen.  I’ve had many people tell me they never get around to printing and their images generally end up at the bottom of the to do list.  What about cropping?  If you don’t know about cropping you can ruin your photographs and waste a lot of money.

So why put a high priority on photographs?  There is nothing like holding a printed photograph in your hands or sitting back admiring and reflecting on that beautiful image on your wall.  When all is said and done, your memories that you treasure will be all wrapped up in the photographs throughout your life.  Not only will you look at them with fond memories over the years, but your family will also treasure them for generations.

Today I was delighted to learn this image was selected as the current face of Who Adelaide new "Tot Shop". Wahoo!

Photography truly is an art like no other and it delights me to be able to create this art for my clients.  Every time I open an image that takes my breath away, I know that I am doing what I was born to do.  Because in my world everything is beautiful and everyone has a story to tell.  I don’t strive to get pictures of what you look like -  I delight in getting pictures of WHO YOU ARE.

I’m committed to helping you decorate your world with highly personal artwork.

Artwork that matters … because I am the storyteller and your life is the story I tell.

    I’ve learnt the exact same thing in the past couple of months. Don’t delete any you take, always take too many, and never be afraid to bring your camera everywhere. I wish i had more photos of myself and my siblings as kiddies. And when i have children, i am quite certain i’ll have thousands of photos of them.

    Love your work, it’s brilliant. And congrats on being used in Who Adelaide :)
