"Australia Day LIVE -2009"

Natalie Bassingthwaighte

Lovers Electric

Yesterday I shot for FasterLouder with Paddy at the "Australia Day Live" Concert in between the Old & New Parliament House's. The concert wasn't as good in my opinion as previous years but the lineup was definately varied;

Trial Kennedy, Lovers Electric, Jessica Mauboy, Natalie Bassingthwaighte, Dan Kelly & The Ukeladies, Wendy Matthews, Gurrumul, Brian Cadd and John Schumann & The Vagabond Crew.

The highlight for me was actually getting to take photos of Wendy Matthews, as daggy as that sounds. She was great and definately somebody I never thought I would get to shoot.

"Clare" - Headshots

Today I took some simple headshot photographs for my friend Clare. This was the first time I have taken photos with the express purpose to get headshots. Clare was very happy with how they all turned out and will be using them in her portfolio for theatre work.

"Grace" - Photoshoot

I did a bit of post processing on this photo to make it look a bit different. I think it works really well.

Today I had another photoshoot with one of my favourite people, Grace. This time we went to a few different places and it was also my first attempt at taking photos with remote flash. As always, she looked fantastic. Here are three of the photos.

"Lila" - Photoshoot

Today I had a fun afternoon shooting with my friend Lila. We took photos at the Carillion and Glebe Park. (A location that is becoming a favourite of mine).

Lila looked great wearing a stunning silk dress that she will be wearing to a wedding soon.

I will post more of the photos soon.

"Grace and Maddy" - Photoshoot

Today I had another photoshoot with Grace. This time, Maddy, her friend from overseas joined us. We took photos in Glebe Park, various spots around Civic and at the Museum of Australia.

The girls did a great job posing on such a hot day, we managed to get some great photos.
