Kate Branch  YOUR online dating photo was shot at a cousin’s wedding when you were lookin’ good but is it the real you? According to North Sydney photographer Kate Branch, it may not be the right image for social media. “There is no point in just posting an attractive photo with no insight into who your are,’’ she says Kate Branch has created a Youtube channel "How to Look Good In Photos" in response to the huge demand for self images for social media. “I don’t necessarily agree with it, but social media has reduced everything to visuals and it’s unfair if you don’t have a good photograph of yourself,’’ she said. “You don’t have to be good looking to look good in a photograph, and the image should reflect the essence of who you are.’’ In her you tube channel, Branch gives examples of capturing good dating profile photos “A photograph of yourself looking glamorous at a cousin’s wedding or night out doesn’t necessarily say anything about who

I have had the pleasure of working with the interior designer Tess Regan. Her work is beautiful and elegant and she is the head designer for the new five star hotel "The Albert, Mosman."

And may people always be, forever more. Enjoy, Kate Xx

What a way to start the day...

No matter what your life experience, photographs are all that are left. Accolades, youth, travel, the beauty of your baby – it all slips through what we call time. And I’ve learned that as you get older your memory starts to become a little unreliable.

I donate some of my travel photos to  wiki commons . If you would like to reuse these images you are welcome. Please abide by the  standard license  of which I have released the images.
