PhotoAccess in for life exhibition







I created these images one Sunday morning for the PhotoAccess members "In for life" exhibition. PhotoAccess is celebrating it's 25th anniversary. I used to work there as the workshop manager overseeing the darkrooms , community access, course program and teaching. I have many wonderful memories of this time. The image of the bird in the sand is called "Together" and is a metaphor for life: you can hurry along only seeing your destination and miss so much or slow down, be in your body, experience and enjoy the now. I had the luxery of meandering along the beach, feeling the sand between my toes,the breeze on my face and smelling the ocean. I saw and photographed a piece of seaweed in the shape of a bird and then a feather floating in the ocean. These form 'Together'... bird/feather....sand/sea...here/now.

OMG I have been so busy all throughout winter photographing lots of portraits and commercial work. Here are some of the portraits that I've done. The first couple above are Anthony and Karen. The middle shots are of Maddie and Bec and we had such fun doing these, especially the pics of them in thier PJ's lying in a field of daisies. The couple at the top are Claire and Chris. Claire is the most bubbly person I have ever met, they are getting married in March.
