Pretty Things

I got a bit experimental, arranging pretty things together. Anyway, here are some of the photos, a few more will be up on my photgraphy blog in a jiffy.




Take note of my awesome camera necklace, I got it from GPco on Sunday. It makes me happy :)





Over exposed but I like the dream-like quality because of that.

Also, this is my awesome Lady GaGa teacup that I bought at Vinnie's, to complete the outfit below:



Yes, that was the best photo I could find to show off the costume... There was one ages ago of me serving behind the bar (big mistake...) but I can't find it.
This is what happens when I get time off...

I

made a Polyvore. Here's my first set:




First set



I'm obsessed with shorts and skirts in winter for some reason. I guess I'm subconsiously drawn to irony. Also, love these Tony Bianco shoes, they come in a few colours, my favourite being "stone chicago," pictured below. Perhaps if I do well with my new job I can justify buying them.




Aren't they beautiful?

Also, I've been seeing these adorable fluffy leopard print berets everywhere, and I've decided I want one. At GPco they have it in a gorgeous snowy colour, instead of the regular fawny leopard.

I can picture the two going very nicely in an outfit together, they'd do well at livening up otherwise boring clothing.

Obsessed

With hands. Rings, nailpolish, hand tattoos, bracelets. Anything to do with hands...

images from various sources found using le olde google. Checkerboard made by myself on Photoscape.
Not sure why. Just am.

You will never not scare me...

Finally...

...found a clear plastic ultra-domey umbrella with a black handle/edging! Thankyou David Jones, take my $30 immediately and gimme!
I had my last day at The SMART Group today, and I'm not starting the new job untill Monday so I plan to take photos of pretty things tomorrow, and you're sure to see them. Also, I found something awesome to do on Saturday- The Fashion Forward Festival. For deets, go here: http://www.fashionforwardfestival.com.au/

Also, you can volunteer to help out, and one of the "categories" is photography. I'll be there with my camera anyway so I applied. it's a bit last minute so I might not hear back but we'll see. Could get me noticed :)
That's all for now

Been a long lonely lonely lonely time


J.
Ok. So I'll admit, it's been a while. What with the limited amount of time I actually spend at home and the general state of tiredness/apathy I tend to be in when I AM home, I haven't been in touch. I'm sorry blogger, I've neglected you.

Well, works going well. Preparing myself for the best pay ever next friday! Because of work I haven't had all that much time for photography lately. But I do have some to share with you!
Backdated photos from the Hunter Valley trip as well as some I got on Sunday night at a last minute RS gig.




Just call me commercial.

The Golden One...









A first appearance on ff. for Kent









Going to the annual fashion photography exhibition at the MLC centre on Saturday, as I actually have the day off work! Pretty excited. Hoping to get some good inspiration, especially as I've got another Ramshackle portrait shoot coming up and hopefully a paid one for another band. Also, one of the bands playing at the Landsdowne where RS were on Sunday night want to book me for their next gig in the area. So hoping to hear from them soonish.
I need to make business cards but I've been procrastinating since the link to my facebook page isn't a very practical one. Anyway, I've decided to make a second blogger, just for my photography. It will have the links to here and my fb, as well as the obvious things like contact info.
Been having some really interesting ideas for artistically ironic photoshoots lately. I really want to achieve a photoshoot with a story to it, to set myself and the boys apart from most amateurs. I'm aiming to get that one perfect photo that makes you go "Yup. That's the rolling Stone cover!" Gunna "pitch" them to james and see what he thinks. Also trying to get a few more started, put the extras in the bank etc.

Anyway, Ill keep you posted and try not to be away for so long this time. Peace out!
