"Looking-Up"
It was a gorgeous day outside yesterday and I decided I'd capture a few shots, drawing inspiration from one of the Miksang photos I came across a few days ago. This was the inspiration..... (photo by Michael Wood)

My Gorgeous HOT MAMMA Friend
This is my friend Steph. She is a mother of two... a 6 year old boy and a 9 month-old girl. During the shoot, the 6 year old was fine and dandy to play on his own, but the baby would not even consider the idea of whether she was comfortable or not, unless she was in mom's arms. You'd think this would have posed a problem, seeing that I was there for a head shot series. Nope! The funny thing about photography... it only tells ONE story, when there really could be SO many more. Steph was actually holding the baby in many of the shots..... and you'd never know it!
Miksang Contemplative Photography

A friend referred me to this website and said that my work reminds him of this style. Yes, I suppose it does! I concentrate on colour and capturing bits of stories, rather than the entire picture.
I have been looking for the common link between my love for yoga & meditation and photography. This is it!
Watch this video and, just like I did, you will get chills from some of these captivating images.

Photo Hunt
Went out one afternoon, looking to see what I could see...
I stopped in a tea shop and some really great colours were jumping out at me. I asked the woman working behind the counter if it would be alright if I took a few photographs, just for personal enjoyment. She said 'yes' at first, and then, after about 10 mins, she came storming after me... and with a scowl on her face, she said 'I have to ask that you don't take photos of any of the customers'.... I should have shown her my work... I didn't have the slightest interest in the people.
