Sharon and Dave were married on an early spring afternoon at the beautiful location of Jonah's Whale Beach in Sydney's famously picturesque Northern Beaches. Their photographer Luke Butterly from LB Photography says that "as a couple they're very easy going and the wedding was happy and laid back. The bride has a beautiful way about her which comes through in the photographs, her dress was very elegant and understated which suited her perfectly and set the tone for the whole event. We chose the pool area at Palm beach for the wedding photography and then went to Pittwater for sunset, where on To View More >>

I have two daughters at school. The youngest did well at the end of year prize giving and the older one threw a wobbly over it. She got nothing. I told her she couldn't blame anyone but herself as she is happy with just getting by. I suggested this to her: You have ten girls lined up in a row, nine are wearing black dresses and one is wearing red. Which one will be noticed? The girl in red, she says. Why? Because she's wearing a different coloured dress. Yes, she stands out from the crowd. She's made a conscious effort to do this (or her black dress is in the wash!) Anyway my point is, if you To View More >>

We use a lot of the playground figures of speech to describe what goes on in life and business. Swings and roundabouts. Climbing the corporate ladder. On a slide. On a roller coaster! I see them in action when I go to the playground with my kids. The little ones push the boundaries, not afraid to try new things. I freak at some of the stuff my kids do. You try telling a two year old that she can't go down that 20 foot high slide at the beach. Should I stop her?

When I realized that this album was for singer Katie Melua, I got a wee bit excited because she is actually one of my favourite artists - cool, jazzy and ever so sweet! Jo de Banzie has worked with Katie for over 8 years, touring with her, shooting for album covers, PR and video stills. Jo says that she has a huge soft spot for Katie so was delighted to be asked to photograph her wedding to ex world Superbike champion James Toseland. "They picked a glorious venue, the Royal Botanical Gardens at Kew, London, and in Katie's words, it was "'all about flowers"! The couple looked stunning, with Katie To View More >>

Jasmine Star had some advice for newbie photographers a few days ago. It was a good reality check, but it left an important question unasked. Basically she says: • It doesn't matter how good you think your photography is (or the guy's down the road), it's what the customer thinks. • It doesn't matter whether you think you're "worth" what you want to charge, it's what the customer thinks. • It doesn't matter whether you're entitled to charge what you're "worth", it's what the customer thinks. The takeaway? You're better off taking what you can, and getting some runs on the board. (Jasmine To View More >>
