Brooke and Geoff brave the weather at Merewether Baths

As if winter needed to go out with a bang, the weekend we had this engagement photo session saw some pretty lousy weather. Although we were at Merewether Baths, you almost couldn’t see them for the waves crashing over and the rain pouring down.

Brooke and Geoff were great sports and braved the wind and rain so we could get these photos. Then it was time to rush home for a hot cuppa. Let’s hope the weather is better on your wedding day guys!

Spring update

Well, it seems like winter is over. It’s time to clear the cobwebs out and get ready for spring. This also means that it’s time for wedding season!

It’s a wedding every weekend from now until November, when we’ll be taking time off to welcome a new Marshall into the world.

I’ve been busy with engagement sessions ahead of the next few weddings, and they’ll be posted shortly. There’s also been a few small changes to the blog here. In particular, new posts will have much larger images for you to enjoy.

Sensitive Freight at the Bar on the Hill

This last Wednesday night, I went along to see Sensitive Freight, a band with some friends and my brother. They played at the Bar on the Hill, a great little venue at the University of Newcastle.

As I always have my camera in tow, I’ve been nominated their “official” photographer:), and so you get to enjoy some photos of the show.

You can check out some of their songs and find out about any upcoming gigs at the Sensitive Freight myspace page or the Sensitive Freight Facebook page.

Website service restored

Apologies if you came by in the last few days, when the website was down.

An explosion in the power room at a data center took down around 9,000 servers hosting websites, including this one. There’s a news article about it if you are so inclined.

In any case, we’re back up now, and hopefully everything should be running smoothly.

General update

Well, there hasn’t been much activity on the website for a little while. As we come into winter it seems like everything slows down a little. I don’t know about you, but it’s hard both leaving and arriving home in the dark, and it certainly feels like there are fewer hours in the day.

So this post is just an update with several small bits of news, to let you know I’m still alive.

I am now a member of the Australian Institute of Professional Photography (or AIPP). It’s an important part of showing that I take my obligations to you as customers seriously. I am bound by their code of ethics to maintain high standards in my business and photography.

There’ll be a few posts here in the next few days, as I have some family portraits and concert photos to share with you. I’ll also be digging through my archives that date from before the website, to share some of my favourite photos with you.

Living Light Photography on Facebook Finally, I’ve also added a page for Living Light Photography on Facebook. While there isn’t much there that you can’t find also on this website, if you like what we do, you can become a fan and keep in touch.
