Sunday Shoot with Kat

Makeup: Glen Evans
Hair: Chloe Maxwell
Hair/Makeup Assistant: Holly He

Weekend report

February 2nd, 2010

What a weekend, had the workshop on Saturday and we initially ran in to a few hiccups but in the end it all worked out. More tiring than what you’d imagine, talking all the time and walking around.

Over the workshop weekend, we had a Bowens Explorer 1500 head & pack system alongside our usual gear for people to play with. Wow this unit pumps out a serious amount of light. 1500 Joules/wattseconds of power and the pop it gave is music to your ears, just ashame once we took it on location for a workout it only managed a measely 180 pops at 700J before giving up.

Saturday night went for a few drinks but ended up I consumed more than what I initially thought I had…. happens all the time it seems LOL.

Sunday up nice and early to shoot the lovely Katrina, who’s a FHM Top 10 “Girl Next Door.”
If you have a few moments spare, perhaps you can vote for her ;)

Short Stop Motion Video from Sunday

January 27th, 2010

This was from Sunday, just before the Australian Flag Bikini shoot. Couldn’t seem to get in to the groove at this part of the shoot. Quite daunting having Jason behind you watching LOL.

Happy Australia Day!

So yesterday I was shooting the wonderful Sarah Knott and was  lucky enough to have Jason Cole there watching over the shoot :) Was a very fun day and I walked away with a mind full of new stuff LOL… anyway here’s the photos.

f.stops here.

So I’ve come to realise my memory of f.stops has vastly deteriorated since my film days. Time to memorise them again until I know them inside out, back to front, front to back :)

Marta & Chloe Timelapse Video

Finally got around to putting together the timelapse video from Marta & Chloe’s shoot @ Trio Sydney. Sorry for the lateness :P

AA Battery iPhone Charger

January 18th, 2010

Many times I’ve found my iPhone getting low on battery out on a location shoot. With no real power available I went looking for an iPhone charger that takes AA batteries. I have plenty of AA batteries so that was the reason for an AA power source. I ran the iPhone down past 20% and with the eneloop battery about 2 weeks old it’s brought charge to past 78%. Build quality is ok, nothing to tell the world about but it’s not too thin and nasty. Pretty dam good for under AUD$5 delivered!

You can find the charger here.

Sarah indoors, edited.

Here’s more photos from the shoot with Sarah. Hopefully we’ll get to do that sunset shoot soon. :)

Amy’s experiment

January 16th, 2010

So my usual MUA (make up artist) Amy wants to play with her makeup kit and this is what she ended up with. I think I prefer glamour stuff :D
