Last week I shot Tommy and James the two guys behind Ice Blocks - ice lollies made of only good natural stuff.  To my delight I discovered they could both juggle.  I left the shoot with a huge box of ice blocks which my son and I are rapidly devouring.

Recent shoots included pregnancy shot titled ‘Cocooned’ for Metro Magazine’s Sex issue.

Due to sleep deprivation my ability to string sentences together was slightly dubious so I kept my speech to about 3 minutes.  The show runs in conjunction with the Auckland photography festival until 1st August 2010.

We were made to feel very welcome and Maree, the gallery curator, even lend us her soft top to ponce around in while the sun shone. The exhibition will remain in Hawkes Bay until the end of November.  Work has been busy recently, including a shoot with the very lovely Jaquie Brown.
