Inner city living | Melbourne Photographer

Monday, November 17th, 2008

If you’ve been following my blog you’ll remember some posts I made of images from a personal project I am working on called “inner city living”. Here is another image which is part of that series.

If you like my personal work and consider it art, fit enough to hang on your walls or to grace a gift/greeting card, then you can purchase it framed, printed, mounted or on a card by clicking on this link rb buy Inner city living |  Melbourne Photographer or any of the images on the right hand side of this blog.  Red bubble is actually really awesome, it allows you to buy my artwork at reasonable prices, exactly how you’d like it. You pick the frame, the mount board and even see a preview of how it will look!

I think the thing I like best about my job is the people I get to meet and the different kinds of work I get to do… I just love the variety of jobs I get to photograph!

It’s all about the light… | Melbourne Wedding Photographer

Wednesday, November 12th, 2008

While looking up some information on sunset times for a photo shoot of a series of buildings I am doing, I thought…this is valuable information I should share with my wedding clients. 

Lighting is an extemely important factor to photography. Some which we can control (flash etc), some which we can’t (the sun).  It is very important that when you plan your wedding, that you utilise the best light for your photographs.  You do not want to be doing your photo session in the dark, because using only flash, is very unflattering.

The best time to take photographs is generally the couple of hours leading up to sunset and about half hour affter.  If you book Lizzy C Photography I am of course here to advise you on how to best utilise the available light.  We can also arrange the locations so as to use the best light available at the time at each location.  This is something we can experiment with during your included e-session, prior to the wedding.

This is a good starting guide which indicates sunset/sunrise times at different times of the year.

My wedding (1.11.08)

Friday, November 7th, 2008

So if you are wondering why I haven’t made a post lately… it’s because last weekend I got married!!

My beautiful clients have been asking to see photos, and have sent lovely messages of congratulations so I thought I better deliver!

The wedding was all about the jazz age and many of the guests, could have steped right out of the 1920s!  We had a fantastic day, we got married here in Melbourne but guests came from all over including Hong Kong, Malaysia and Japan and of course many from Queensland.

Ben from Sunlit video productions is putting together a video for us, my fantastic friend Rebecca took the photos, and Melissa from the Ceremony store married us, just the way we wanted!

My mother dried thousands of rose petals and put together my bouquet, Rebecca and Jodie helped me make all the bits and pieces which made our wedding really personal and illustrate our creative flair and Robyn made us the best chocolate cake I’ve ever eaten! Thanks everyone for making our wedding what it was!
