What a spectacular view from Cremorne Point. Sydney really comes alive at New Year. Being in a warm city for the celebrations really allows a party spirit. What a memorable fireworks display.

The Powerhouse is based In the inner city suburb of Pyrmont, the Powerhouse museum houses space relics, the oldest working steam engine and other historic and inspiring objects. A must see in Sydney #sydney #emeraldcity #ilovesydney 

The Royal national park in Sydney had beautiful beaches. Start with a coffee by the river, feed the ducks then cruise down to the naturally beautiful beaches for a dip. 

Recently Sydney had the Navy Fleet Review sail into Sydney harbour. From Cremorne Point you could see the spectacular display. I had to capture it. Enjoy

Best place to be on Sunday is rocks markets sydney. There are great characters and it's right next to sydney harbour. Here are my pics. How cute is that puppy!

I am very excited to be on the cover of OBQ weekly. Here is a photograph of me holding the cover. Many amazing Australians have been on the cover and I am absolutely thrilled to be as well. Thank you OBQ weekly and Southern China Airlines. 

Last week I was photographed for my local paper the Mosman Daily. It was promoting shopping locally in the area of Neutral Bay. Personally it is not a hard sell to shop and eat locally. I have always promoted the local community because it is very imporant. You can sit on blogger and twitter all day long- but you cannot have a coffe with your social media. As much as online is imporantant- we must not forget to get amoungst our local communities. Thats why Google+ is a great new tool. It supports local communities and buisnesses. I have my photography buisness advertised on Google+ and it allows me to see other small buisness around my area. Social media should enhance your engagment. Ideally your first port for a social life should be your community. And whats not to like. Shopping, eating out. Yes please.

I love teaching my workshop How to pose. If you are wondering what it is all about keep reading.  Having your picture taken can be daunting. All your little insecurities come out to play. We may be insecure about our stomach so we stand behind people with our arms crossed in every picture. We may be insecure about or teeth so we never open our mouth and always look a little grim. The most popular posing mistakes I have experienced when photographing clients are: Covering their mouth with their hand as they are ashamed of bad teeth Crossing their hands in front of their body as they are unhappy with their stomach Throwing their hands in front of their face and saying “no photos, please” Making a funny face like sticking their tongue out as they are anxious and react this way The only problem is that if we cover up our insecurities incorrectly, we will never have a nice picture of ourselves. It’s okay to have insecurities. We all have them. But if we tackle them
