Everyone is liking dark sets

This time for Myer Emporium magazine, shooting various still life product on different sets predominately dark including black perspex/acrylic, laminex marble and black velvet. Photos of the full set and then when I can, the finished retouched final layout.

Black Acrylic Sheet is called Perspex in Australia

Shooting an advertising feature with Emma Gleeson for Shop til You Drop Magazine using black perspex/acrylic as a background although a challenge, was great fun. Styling by Elodie Feat but I can't post the pictures yet...
One out-take with its distorted perspective and the reality of what was happening, gave me the idea for the self portrait, below that is the perspex/acrylic just with the lighting and no props...

Great Still life Project

Jessica Hanson, stylist who works for  Australian House and Garden Magazine asked if I would collaborate on a project she is working on. Here are some of the images.

Speaking of the Great Southern land

I had a friend try to hitch a ride.. on of the most dangerous spiders in Australia.

Give me a home...

Among the gum trees. 

Classic Australian yard- gum tree, obligitory swing, shed (although this one is quite up-market) and rain water tank.

Or, you could have the alternate dream- the pool, the palm and floatation device.

the choice is yours my friends.
