walking the streets

Vespas zooming past thousand year old buildings, the distant sound of police sirens and foreign accents. My mind starts to slow down and my body starts to feel things that are going on around me. I’m smelling new smells, hearing new sounds and noticing things that people seem to be walking straight past. There is a river of people passing by, flowing to places like the Colosseum and the Vatican, and it seems all I want to do is stand still and experience everything that is happening around me. What is wrong with me? Why aren’t I feeling the overwhelming desire to visit these sites this very instant. Am I broken? Have I missed the point? Or am I starting to experience the world in a different way? I smile to myself and press the shutter.

Bring the fun – band promo

One of the first things I started photographing years ago was bands. Music is something I absolutely love and holds a very close place to my heart. So a few weeks ago I did some promo shots for a few local artists, one in particular called Fun machine. To say they were fun, is a little silly and probably an understatement! But we did have a bunch of fun and I thought you might like to see them :)

They’re in the process of organizing a tour and doing some new album stuff. Be sure to keep an eye (and ear) out for these guys. Check them out on myspace http://www.myspace.com/morefunmachine (a couple of favourites, “nintendo in the jungle” and “cougar”.

Thanks to Scot and Ollie and everyone else who helped out! :)

Brigid and Paul – Siena, Italy

Tuscany teaser

One of the perks of being a photographer is traveling to amazing places. Yesterday I was fortunate enough to photograph a destination wedding in Siena, Italy. We got some really amazing shots and I can’t wait to share them with you all!

I’ve also spent a large time photographing the people and the streets of Siena – which has been a life changing experience in itself!

Here is a quick teaser of what is to come :)
