So Bec and Rob got married last week - always such an honour to be involved in my friends' special days like this, it was a cracker!

Sneak Peek time! We really had fun on Sunday shooting the wedding of Megan and Paul - they're absolutely made for each other, and they know how to tear up the dance floor! The Brisbane weather held out and it was a great day from beginning to end.

Sneak Peek time - last Saturday we photographed the sensational wedding of Caley and David out at Kooroomba Vineyard and Lavender Farm. It was a true celebration, loads of fun, and a glorious setting (although the wind gave us some challenges a little later in the afternoon). Great hair and makeup work by Amanda Higl Hair and Make-up and Annette Richards Celebrant did a terrific job.

A couple of my higher scores at the recent NZIPP awards; these both did well at APPA last year too.
- Inside a video game arcade in Shinjuku, Tokyo, in late 2018.
- On the rooftops of Old Delhi, competitive homing pigeons is a hotly-contested sport, Feb 2019.

A couple more from the NZIPP Iris Awards - the ladies of Rajasthan, both taken in 2018:
- In a very ancient and quite remote village a couple of hours drive from Dausa we were given amazing access to a family's compound; after lunch the women chill together in a shed and smoke. I used this image for the cover of a little photobook I made that year.
- In the "Blue City" of Jodhpur, I believe these 2 sisters were running a small rooftop restaurant.
