VIVID Sydney Festival of Light, again brightens our harbour nights with great luminous sculptures.

Vivid Sydney again gave me the opportunity to shoot Monique bathed in the installations light. Shooting in that massive crowd proved again to be a challenge, but unlike last years Vivid shoot, the rain stayed away. (see older blog for our last Vivid shoot). Monique did a great professional job braving both the freezing weather and the multitude of onlookers, all of coarse with cameras.

Hair and Make Up by Katherine Minty, assistant : Sky, and all the designers and artists of the installations.

"Squeaky wheel gets the oil"

My favourite model declared herself available during these past few warm days, so as I'm not able to just sit indoors slaving over my computer while the sun shines outside, out we went. Enthusiasm can take on many different shapes, as you can see here, it can be well worth the effort to oil up. There are more of course, but you will need to wait and see. But you can be sure of at least one thing, "All that glistens can be Gold"

Some images show faces that once looked our way, I shoot for ones that can keep looking out at us.

As you can see here, her captivatingly intense look can keep our attention long after the distraction of her fit and ample physique. I like shooting with her because the resulting images withstand not only the test of time, but survive swimming in today's huge volume of images out there.

Glamour photographer nets a beach babe

I shoot with my favourite subject often because she appreciates the value of that sacred evening sunset light. We often come together on short notice. Without any trivial discussion, we just "do it" and what makes this shot so hot, is the strength with which she is projecting. I place the communication with my subjects above all else, and am driven to get that essence that is her into focus.Few Glamour shots stand out because the subject's emotion is not part of the image. As you can see here this is not an image made without emotion, it's one of her looking at us - now even as we speak.
