June 2009 - Tasmanian Winter

Hello %%First Name%%,

We are now really in the thick of winter here in Tasmania, one of my favourite times of year. We have already woken up to many a crisp day only to find Mount Wellington covered in a blanket of snow! Winter is always a good time to pursue projects and I thought I would send out an email (yes I know they are a bit scarce these days!) highlighting a few things that are going on that you may be interested in.

For a limited time only, Tom and I are offering a 5 day, 4 night Cradle Mountain Workshop from Monday 21st to Friday 25th of September 2009 for just $2995 per person! This includes expert tuition, luxury accommodation at the world-renowned Cradle Mountain Lodge (twin share), all meals including your finale 3-course meal on the last night, transfers from Launceston, national park fees and more.

This session is not just for those who want to expand on their photographic skills. If you have a keen interest in photography and haven't been sure where to start, this is a great place to begin. With two professional photographers at your fingertips, we can offer tips and tricks on how to take that winning image and make the most of your camera equipment.

Normally $3195 EXCLUDING accommodation, this price of only $2995 is a saving of over $1,000! We only have a few places available at this price, so book today. This offer won’t last very long at this low price. You won’t see this advertised on Tom's website as this is for my newsletter subscribers.

Australian Community of Child Photographers - Heartfelt

Some of you may know that I volunteer for an organisation called the Australian Community of Child Photographers (ACOCP). But some of you may not know that there is about to be an exhibition!

An Exhibition titled 'Heartfelt' is about to open to raise awareness for this very worthy cause. One of my ACOCP sesson images is included in the exhibition.

Heartfelt
22nd June - 3rd July 2009
MLC Gallery - 449 Harris Street, Ultimo NSW
Open Monday to Friday 11am to 6pm & Saturday 12 to 4pm
The Exhibition website is HERE

The Australian Community of Child Photographers is a volunteer organisation of child photographers from all over Australia. These photographers have come together to form an organisation dedicated to giving the gift of photographic memories to families that have experienced stillbirths, premature and ill infants and children in the Neonatal Intensive Care Units of their local hospitals, as well as children with serious and terminal illnesses.

We are proud to exhibit a selection of our photographs in order to raise awareness of the service we provide and to tell the stories of courage, heartbreak and hope of the everyday people who we are privileged to work with.

If this is a type of photography you may be interested in volunteering for - please contact me (if you are in Tasmania) otherwise please check out the website HERE

Strata - Wilderness Gallery Exhibition

The Wilderness Gallery has an amazing variety of exhibitions on display at the moment - a very curious one is Strata!

Strata explores the nexus between tradition and innovation using handmade paper as a foundation for modern photographic printing techniques. This striking group of collaborative and individual photographs is printed on a surprising variety of non-traditional natural fibres, handmade papers featuring lichen, mosses and collected endemic flora of Cradle Mountain. Strata evokes the many layers of life and reflects the way process develops through the need to communicate an idea. The nature of the process - unique hand made paper - means that many of these images are single editions!

Strata is open until the 17th of July

The images I have in the exhibition can be found HERE

Getting Married?

One of my projects (well actually for the past year or so!) has been to incorporate wedding photography into my portfolio as a photographer. I thought I might share some images from my most recent wedding with you as I know this might come as a suprise for some of you!

In a way, having started out as a landscape photographer has given me a bit of an edge in understanding light and composition. Keith and Leanna are a beautiful couple, their wedding was a lot of fun and I know they treasure their photographs.

If you are getting married or know someone who is and would like to talk about wedding photography, send me an EMAIL or check out some more images I have uploaded to my (recently renovated) portraiture website HERE

Anyway, that’s it for now. I will endeavour to keep you posted.
I hope you enjoyed this newsletter, remember if you did, why not spread the word and send it to a friend?

Thanks for reading
