The lovely HannaShayPhotography is Awesome!!!

One of my recent projects has been to do a photo shoot with some beautiful friends and the lovely Hanna Shay of  www.hannashayphotography.smugmug.com . What we did was meet at one of the most gorgeous parks in the area with an amazing view of the sea behind it. We took some pictures of Taylor and Michelle wearing some dresses and then took off to the Pitt St. Bridge where we had the backdrop of palm trees and walkways too.

It was a fun shoot. We had to do all the changing in a tiny little playground bathroom in between legitimate playground folks. And we had no mirror...so all in all it turned out great. Hanna Shay was relaxed and fun and we loved getting to know her. She has a great eye and did super shots despite the glaring sunlight when we first started. So without more ado, here are some of the shots from that day. All the model pics from the last couple of posts are courtesy of  www.hannashayphotography.smugmug.com .

A Lively... and Beautiful... Photography

The beautiful Nicole Roberts is the mind and heart behind the amazing photography of A Lively Photography. Nicole captures the poignancy and beauty of those unforgettable moments of life with a perfect 'eye' for things that make you go  'awwww...!!'(..sigh..)

I love her images from her recent shoots!  The faces of the wedding couples, especially, seem to leap out. The more casual portraits of couples have such vibrancy and transparent love about them, as well.  

One thing that amazes me is the gift she has of finding the most wonderful, colorful and unforgettable settings to shoot....many of them with a super cool retro feel. Nicole is gifted with seeing the hearts behind the event and capturing those intangible moments in her work.

Take a look at A Lively Photography and enjoy the feeling !
