shooting architects
A couple of recent tearsheets.
A few shots of a cool warehouse conversion by terrior appeared in new eco-design magazine Green.
And I was also commissioned by Architectural Review to shoot a portrait of the fellas from Room 11. I’m a big fan of their work.
An alternative from the shoot - we we’re hoping they’d print this one.
I’m very busy at the moment with a couple of interesting contracts and projects. Looking forward to posting the results when I can.
shooting beer
I wouldn’t normally post product shots here but this one was a bit of fun. The combination of two of my great loves - beer and photography.
Will from Van Dieman Brewing asked me to shoot his new range and I was more than happy to oblige - the stuff tastes amazing and the ace labels were designed by the always-awesome Southsouthwest.
The Australian
When I was studying photography at school I would religiously scan the pages of The Australian to check out the photos. At the time, the extraordinary Trent Parke was working as a sports photographer on the paper and I used to tear out his photos for my art journal.
10 years later and one of my shots has made the cover. Self-congratulations all round!
The pic was taken in the minutes before a leaders debate during the Tasmanian election campaign and shows a nervous encounter between my old mate David Bartlett and Liberal leader Will Hodgman.
Not the most amazing shot ever taken but a nice surprise nonetheless.
The Monthly + music stuff
I’ve posted before about Go Betweens co-founder turned music critic Robert Forster so it’s was a pleasant surprise to get a call from The Monthly asking for some of my pics to go with an article Forster penned on the Tassie music scene (specifically the “Community” compilation recently released by Rough Skies Records)
Sadly the article is not available online yet, but see the tearsheets here: page 1, page 2
They published two photos:
In related news, it was also cool to see my pic of Paint Your Golden Face used to promote their new album.
This pic is also the cover of the album. Woot
Odd + Even
Jess and Cat have organised another Odd + Even market.
It’s on this Saturday. If you’re in Hobart, come along and check it out at the Long Gallery, Salamanca.
I’m gonna have some Olympus Trip 35 cameras and prints for sale
Come and have a poke around!
