2009 - My year in Polaroids

01-10-2010

 

 Anybody that knows me, knows how much I LOVE my polaroids.  I got my very first polaroid camera when I was 15 and I was instantly in LOVE, no pun intended.  Over the years my collection of Polaroids has grown to 16 cameras and I love them all equally.  As most of the world is aware polaroid stopped making film in late 2008/09 and it became a hot ticket item over night and the prices sky rocketed to almost $4.50 per frame.  So like the rest of the world I stocked up like crazy and each frame became very selective and very precious.  

 

As my stock dwindles down to my last 50 frames I resist the urge to shoot anything and everything.  But luck would have it that the smart people over at Fujifilm came up with an alternative and again I am in LOVE.

 

My Polaroid family has two new members, I would like to introduce you too - INSTAX MINI & INSTAX 200 WIDE, my new BFF.  Besides being the coolest new thing I own, the quality is breathtaking as these cameras are FREAKIN AWESOME.  

 

So here are my favs from my old school polaroids and from my new bad boys. Enjoy.

As of today the office will be closed until Monday 30th November.  I am so privileged to be attending the world famous workshop of Jesh De Rox.  This is my second time attending Jesh’s Australian workshop and I cant even begin to explain how inspiring and crazy cool this workshop is. I cant wait, so stay tuned and I will be back next week to answer any calls/emails and share some images and details from this amazing experience.

West Australian Professional Photography Awards 2009

09-08-2009

 

 

 This week was WAPPA (Western Australian Professional Photography Awards) held at the Duxton.

The WAPPAs are the premier photography awards in Western Australia. Entrants provide a folio of there three best photographs to be judged by a panel of local experts together with the visiting judges. The panel uses a similar system to the Canon AIPP Australian Professional 

Photographer of the Year Awards (APPA) with each print given a score between 50 and 100.  Prints scoring 85 and over receive a distinction sash.  

 

This year was my first year attending and submitting work and I was pleasantly surprised as I was awarded a Silver distinction.  This is my second award this year and I must say I am a little chuffed.  Massive thanks goes out to amazing husband and fabulous friends who have helped me and supported me throughout my life. I really wouldn’t be here without each and every one of you, so thank you.

 

You can view the complete exhibition at the Central Park building 152-158 St Georges Terrace, Perth 

from Monday 14th September to Friday 18th September.
