I wrote a couple of days ago about pointing the “wrong way” and still getting the shot… Because when you face away from a sunset, that’s when you get to capture those really nice soft pastel colours in the sky. For this particular shot, there was no question about...

This is Hyams beach. Commonly thought of as one of Australias best beaches, which I agree with… I first heard of Hyams beach about 6 or 7 years ago when I was asking a work friend recommendations for cool places to take some mates who were visiting for the first time...

Hope your weekend was a good one! We had an interesting afternoon yesterday. I was Sonia’s assistant (translation = gear carrier) while she was photographing some adoption profile shots for two huskies. If you ever want to set yourself a challenge, try photographing...
