Hi Melbourne friends,

Once in a while I hire a studio in Moorabbin to make portraits for people who feel colourful. If you need a new headshot, profile photo for socials or branding portrait for your website, I've got you covered.

For $220, youโ€™ll get a 45 minute session and nine high res digital files on three different colour backdrops. No need to worry about how to stand (you'll be sitting) or what to do with your hands (I'll tell you exactly how to pose), just a colourific playdate with unlimited lollies and good conversation (not guaranteed). Feel free to bring items or objects of meaning to include in your portrait.

Email [email protected] or DM me www.instagram.com/rowenameadowsphoto to book. This might be my last studio day for a while so be hasty.

Finishing up with some generous words of endorsement from the gorgeous Boronia (pictured here):

โ€œThis was honestly the most fun I've had in front of the camera in ages! Updating headshots and owning how you have changed can be a conflicting experience. Even though I was chaotic, late, nervous and giddy, Rowena made me feel like the whole process was just a game of dress-ups combined with the best type of first date.โ€

Love to meet you next Friday.

Last year I was commissioned by Australian Geographic to document the daily life of Terry Martin, a resident of French Island (pop 139 people) for a story on social isolation and remote living. Although itโ€™s only 60km from Melbourne city, French Island is isolated and undeveloped with no water/electricity mains or medical services on the island which is only accessible by boat.

Before I share my favourite images from the story I really wanted to make a separate post for this portrait of Terry and the accompanying excerpt from my field notes:

Nine grandchildren in a yardtrait made just for their beloved grandpa's birthday gift. We decided to include props that say something about the kids themselves and some that give a sweet nod to their grandpa's life and loves. Happy Birthday, Ricky.
