A Portrait of Singapore

Earlier this year I headed over to Singapore for a week and shot 8 rolls of film. It was the first time for me to travel overseas and shoot ONLY film. Having just got the shots back today from the lab, I’m very happy with the results! Here is a taste of this intriguing place. For those interested it was all shot on my Zeiss Ikon with the 35 f/2. They are some of my favourite shots ever… what do you think? Can you dig it? Can’t wait to share the rest of the series with y’all!

A lovely gesture {and a shoe lace}

Last weekend I was up in Brisbane for a few days working on a couple of projects. While walking back from Fortitude Valley I noticed this guy standing just off the sidewalk and holding something behind his back. I wasn’t entirely sure what it was, but it looked like a bunch of flowers so I walked over and started having a chat. At first I was just hoping to photograph him for my Australia wide portrait project (more on this very soon), but then we got chatting and it became even more interesting. It turns out Matt was waiting for his girlfriend (who would be walking up the street any minute) and had just hand picked some flowers for her. Not having anything to tie the bunch together he broke off his own shoe lace and tied the beautifully arranged flowers together… I thought to myself, how beautiful. It’s times like these when you realise there really are some wonderful people in the world.

“May I photograph you?”
“OK”.

Radda in Chianti {Street Photography in Italy}

Earlier this year I was fortunate enough to be photographing a beautiful wedding in Tuscany, Italy. One of my best mates and fellow photographer Dale also came over and we managed to spend most of our time photographing in the streets (and enjoying the incredible food & wine of the region!) We met some really interesting characters and captured some of my favourite images. Here are a few shots from a small town called Radda in Chianti. We ended up in the town by complete accident as we were trying to make our way to a smaller village for a festival (more on that story in another post!) without any method of transport to leave the village, we made the most of our time here… Enjoy!
