Peter's Property





















I did this shoot last week on a Thursday on a property that's just past Tharwa. I had seen some photos of it before i went, which was the main reason that attracted me to the place. It wasn't a typical property with just farm animals and a veg garden. This man collects wood from all over the world and makes some amazing pieces from it. His passion for sculpting really shines through in his garden. I wanted to keep the photos on the 'travel photography' side, and i found so many details to photograph. This is another story that will be put together through a collage like display. My fave pic is the first one with the hands and the roses. I like the contrast between his hands and the roses, i find the image quite effective.
Feedback and comments would be great.

Murrumbateman Wineries






I went to Murrumbateman last weekend and took some photos at a few different wineries around the area. I didn't really want to just focus on the vines and the wine itself, as i want to cover a broader range of the properties. It was the Moving Wine Feast that happens there every October long weekend. I had gone to check it all out a few months ago when it was all completely bare, just to see what the area is like. I came across the Murrumbateman winery, and as it turned out they were also interested in getting some photos taken for their website. 
This selection here is from a few different wineries. I was disappointed because the weather was pretty bad, with clouds and rain. So, I have arranged to go back in a couple of weeks when the vines are greener and its a nice sunny day. 
Feedback would be great!!

Travel/Lifestyle

       
       

       


          

I did this shoot at a family friends place, they have a great garden that's full of detail. What i had in mind with these photos is to use them for a series on a page of a particular place. so instead of them being single images, i would use them together to represent the destination. I hope that make sense?? Feedback would be great!

Food shoot

                   

I did this food shoot at home and Im really happy with them, particularly the cabbage. I was focusing on raw ingredients and making them look rustic. Let me know what you think...
