Film Noir

These are some photos from my recent shoot with Raquel. I wanted to do something very dark, raw and edgy; cinematic and dramatic. I also wanted to produce some female portraits that showed emotions usually left well alone - a departure from the usual representation of woman. Raquel was amazing, as you can see, and brought my vision to life perfectly. I think of the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo's Lisbeth Salander when I look at these. Enjoy!

Mono

This is a preview from a shoot I did with Raquel today. Its summer time here in Brisbane and about 28 degrees and humid. Really put me in the mood to do something with a cold and dark winter vibe! More to come ...

Paris Je Taime

Feeling a little nostalgic for Paris ... as you do. Thought I'd post some of my favourite images, taken underneath the Eye, and from Lover's Bridge. Also some random street scenes, from my happysnap perspective.
