It’s exciting when someone whose wedding you’ve photographed gets in touch to ask if you can do a maternity photo shoot!
And it’s exciting when you rock up to the location and find that it’s a salt lake on a farm near Kulin that looks like this.

The last couple of posts have been individual portraits, but girls have much more fun when they’re in a group with other girls! #girlsjustwannahafun When shooting for stock photos I try to think of what the photos might be used for. I think of different scenarios, and create stories with the photos I’m shooting.

When your model brings her sister and her sister is beautiful and bubbly and smart; now that’s a bonus!

I never know what’s behind me when I’m looking through the lens. Well apparently there was someone with an iPhone while I was taking photos in a shearing shed this week!

When shooting for stock photos it’s great to find a model who can share different emotions for the camera. This was a great shoot with Kellie and her friends in Narrogin.

Ask a fourteen-year-old boy to pose for photos? Not likely.
Ask him to show you a wheelie on his bike? No problem!

I had a bit of fun trying to animate a series of photos taken at the Djuki Mala show last week.

If you ever get the opportunity to see the Djuki Mala dancers, I highly recommend you go and see their show. They were in #narrogin last week, and I had the pleasure of meeting the guys and photographing them for Arts Narrogin. The show started out with some history and culture, and progressed through all genres of music including traditional indigenous dance, Disco, Bollywood, old time musical, and hip hop.
The show was funny, clever, and very energetic.

These are the very ordinary photos taken on my iPad to accompany the model release forms for these kids that I photographed in Narrogin during the week. The first shoot was a very gorgeous family of four lovely little kids on a farm. The second was some awesome teen girls in town, and then a couple of their brothers/cousins on a bike.
Photo shoots for stock photos that will be available on #austockphoto. Release forms signed on #easyrelease. #narroginyouth #stockphotography

I spent a couple of days in Onslow. Visiting Sophie and meeting the boyfriend. I loved the drive out to the old Onslow town site, and our lunch in the shade by the Ashburton River. Two days isn’t long enough to get to know a place and organise any photo shoots, but it was great to see Sophie and to see where she lives and works.

Some warm weather for the next few days in Karratha. I’m here hoping to get some authentic Australian stock photos for the #Austockphoto library in #Karratha, #Onslow and #Dampier. #pilbaralife

On Sunday my parents put on a special luncheon for all of their grandchildren. But the tyranny of distance meant that my two eldest girls couldn’t be there (working in the Pilbara) and neither could my sister’s two youngest daughters (living and studying in Queensland).
But we didn’t want them to miss out!
Here are the virtual granddaughters with their grandparent! @sophietelfer @bonnie_telfer @teffstagram @claud.heffer @wendy.solly

I needed a reminder of how fast time flies. Not quite this fast; but all of a sudden there doesn’t seem to be much time left before the end of the year!

So apparently when your teenage son gets serious about racing Gravity Enduro he requires a bike that costs more than the car I drive. Thank goodness for Facebook, which helped me to locate a second hand bike with the exact specs he needed.

I’ve woken up to a quiet house, after all the kids have left. Two went back to boarding school yesterday afternoon, and two have gone up to the airport in Perth this morning (Roger is dropping them off, hence why the house is quite, with not even the radio on).

I don’t have any photos of the happy couple yet, but here are the other four at Matthew and Ashleigh’s wedding yesterday.
It was a beautiful ceremony and a great evening of entertainment on the farm at Glendale.

Hugh and his mates had a great weekend riding. Saturday was practice day for the WA Gravity Enduro event at Evedon Park in the Ferguson Valley. I wasn’t able to be there on Sunday for the race, but I had a relaxing morning on Saturday having coffee and chats on the deck overlooking the lake at #evedonlakesideretreat #wagravityenduro

I don’t help out on the farm as much as I used to, because we have a pretty good work crew when the kids are home. So it’s a change to have some time in the sheepyards, mainly recording data this time. I’m failing miserably at pushing up rams for crutching though - not game to get in the pen with them anymore!
