Thank you for stopping by here and good luck with your book writing! x It was a pleasure to meet you at the Blogger meetup last last Friday. Your photography is stunning – will definitely try to practice your great advice  Yesterday I took my group The Melbourne Walk and Shoot Group on an outing to Mount Dandenong. We were in search of autumn colour so we went to the RJ Hamer Arboretum. Thanks to Robert and Peter in the group we had an easy meeting point and a very unstrenuous walk into the forest. We…  Well I had a thoroughly enjoyable day out yesterday.

I just got back tonight from a whirlwind three week trip in Canberra. I worked on a recipe book that serves as a tribute to an Italian couple (no longer with us) who left an extraordinary legacy in the form of authentic recipes. I documented a gorgeous family story for a family I have worked…  I reckon about every three years you need to do a professional portrait update.
