//BLUE RIPPLES




Some more fashion shots taken in our local park. Really blessed in Australia to have such beautiful park areas and trees' to take pictures in, to walk our dog and to simply relax. 

This little outfit here I bought in Thailand, the dress, I think was around 200 Baht (which once converted I think roughly is around $6 AU) and the belt was from the second hand shop. While the hat, which I personally think looks very rustic in the "Aussie Outback" was around $10 from TEMT.

Personally loving Melbourne weather at the moment, my favourite part of the day is probably the cool change at night when it's not too chilly to walk around.

Well, Vess and I have been so blessed to have spent the day yesterday catching up with dear friends. 
Friends from highschool and new friends. It's one of the best feelings to be able to meet up with people who you haven't seen for a while yet still be able to catch up where you left off. 






On another note, anyone have any good blog suggestions?

Need to re enter into the blogger sphere of things to increased motivation, inspiration and maybe collaborations!

// M&L {quirky adventures}


Final few shots of my photoshoot with Lina and Mike. These ones were taken in the same park where we discovered a lovely log and little path from which we could take some great depth of field photos. 

Lina and Mike were great! Not only were they willing to pose and try out different locations, but they would suggest photo ideas; eg. I think sitting on the log was Lina's idea. So many times I would look down to fiddle with my settings only to look up and find Lina and Mike doing a new pose or would have discovered something fun to do.

The best photo shoots are those which, despite feeling a little bit tired, you leave feeling excited and pumped up for the next one. I honestly couldn't wait to start editing and choosing photos, (but then Christmas, and New Years came, so I did sort of left it aside.)






Vess and I have been working on our crafting skills and I've got some more fashion photography on the way!

Thanks for having a look guys and thanks so much for my dear friends who are honest and lovely enough to let us know they like our stuff! 

Just the other day a friend from high school, who I bumped into after work mentions she liked our fashion photography. Even that little side comment, made my heart soar!

M & L {floral fun}


Just before I left for my holiday, I did a mini photo shoot of my dear friends Mike and Lina. 

They are such a gorgeous couple and I had such a fun morning with them, laughing and prancing around the garden together. This little photoshoot came about, simply because I wanted to practice some of my photography and Lina had seen some of the pics I had done for Nina. I have this tendency to approach some of my good looking friends with boyfriends/girlfriends and ask them "hey, so I think you guys are  really good looking. Um, can I take photos of you? Pretty please?"  

And most of the time they tend to say "Yes?"

So to my new and old friends, don't be surprised if I pose the same question to you on a regular basis, especially if there is beautiful lighting or nice scenery!

Mike and Lina are such a fun couple to be around, always asking me if I felt comfortable or laughing at me when I would clumsily fall over the many plants in the garden. And they were so keen to give 110%, even coming to my house at around 9 to shoot (Any activity before 10am is pretty impressive in my books!) or crouching in some flowers for a photo. 




There will be another set of photos coming soon. Took me a while to get through all of them for editing, but I think I'm finally done with them all! Hopefully you guys enjoy viewing my good looking friends!


Ah, it's been a bit difficult for Vess and I to redo our blog layout, because she always seems to be working when I'm free and I work while she's at home. But I know, enough excuses, we will do it!

Stay happy and healthy and hope you are enjoying the weather, where ever you are!
