Studio Shoot with the Twins and Rachel

My good buddy and fellow photographer Elias has occasional access to a large indoor space, which we have turned into a small photo studio a couple of times.

On this occasion we invited our good friends and regular photo subjects sisters Jess and Kaalli, and their friend Rachel. These studio shoots are deliberately small scale compared to photo meets, and we spend a lot more time getting lighting and poses right. This gives us both a chance to practice our lighting and studio photography skills. It also lets the girls think more about creative poses and ideas they’d like to try.

Vocaloid Photo Meet

Been a while eh? :) Life has been busy, tumultuous and interesting lately to say the least (more on that in future posts). My inspiration has been elsewhere for a while, but I though it was time to return to the blog. I’ve got lots to catch up on, but I thought I’d start with a fun and colourful photo shoot I recently went to.

Spontaneous Cosplay

P365 Day 4

I got word just two days prior, that a friend of Kaalli and Jess was coming to Melbourne from the country for a cosplay photo shoot. Siami was invited as a cosplayer, and I as a photographer. I love hanging with and photographing these guys, so I made some time in my day for a couple of hours for a spontaneous photo shoot in Fitzroy Gardens. Timing was fortunate, as golden hour was glorious. Link to full gallery at bottom.

Cosplay in Fitzroy Gardens

Another week, another photo meet :) Not long after the meet I last wrote about, in early August, another group of friends gathered in the city and walked to Fitzroy gardens for photos. Mark/Nakey was there as well, along with Terri and her video camera. We had a great time, and I got some photos I was very happy with. Images below and a link to the full gallery at the bottom.
