Photographing in Melbourne for Circa AD Jewels

Louise Macdonald (Milliner) positions one of her hats on Carmen (model)

I always love it when I have a reason to head to Melbourne for work. Melbourne was my old stamping ground in my late teens and early 20’s, as I was studying for a science degree at Monash University. I enjoyed that time discovering all that the city had to offer, a far cry from the diary farm I grew up on. Now living in Sydney for a “life-time” it’s somewhat nostalgic to have a reason to head back down.

The shoot begins…

I was shooting the lovely Carmen who was modelling for Adrian Dickens of Circa AD Jewels This time Adrian was collaborating with the talented milliner Louise Macdonald

We all came together at Sun Studios in Melbourne and a sunny morning to start the shoot. I was assisted by Ned Roche, a trusty “right-hand man”. It was a perfect team to work with so everything flowed nicely and there was space to enjoy ourselves.

A Little Night Music – at the Hayes

Hayes Theatre Co has announced the cast for the acclaimed Stephen Sondheim musical A Little Night Music, which opens in October. Winner of five Tony Awards including Best Musical, A Little Night Music is a wonderfully witty and deeply moving romance, exploring desire, passion and regret.

As previously announced, Australia’s favourite leading lady and namesake of Hayes Theatre Co, Nancye Hayes plays the role of Madame Armfeldt. The recipient of many industry awards, including three Lifetime Achievement Awards, three Helpmanns, four Green Room, two Glugs and a Mo, Nancye Hayes AM takes on her favourite role for the third time in her illustrious career.

Members of the cast and crew came to my studio to capture a promotional image for their media efforts. We photographed each cast member separately firstly and then set up a group shot for the final capture.
