I wish I could sit and shoot by those big windows every day. Polaroid SLR680 with 600 film.

So it doesn’t feel like Spring to my Australian bones yet, but it sure is starting to look like it, baby. My love of cherry blossoms is for 2 reasons: 1. They only share themselves with the world for a teeny amount of time and that makes them so special. 2. They look beautiful from [...]

Apart from the obvious which is allowing me to shoot some photographs and making them look pretty, I love my cameras for their funny little quirks. When you spend as much time with a camera like I do, you start to think of them as friends, confidantes, secret keepers and often times, like your own [...]

This is what is so truly magical about polaroids and this girl knows how to shoot. The composition, the colours, the light…perfect. This [...]

At the close of each year, on one blog or another I have done a “Best Of” of my own photography. This year I am sharing my favourite Polaroids of 2009. I probably used my Polaroid SX70 more so this year than any other, so I do believe it’s fitting. This shot was taken on [...]

Here I sit, warm shortbread has just come out of the oven, the fire log channel is singing to me and keeping me warm while I dream about going to my first Christmas tree lot. At home, we have real Christmas trees but they are usually just stacked in someone’s yard and are pretty much [...]
