Since I got back into tumblr, I have been itching for days to shoot someone/something/anything at all. A few days ago, a clumsy (and failed) attempt at assembling a photoshoot with Sunnybunny and I as photographers hurtled out of control, and so since neither Wangays nor I were doing anything today, we made a day of it ;)!

Happy Australia Day, guys! :P

Meet my new Instax Wide!! :D



A month ago, my relationship was my father was on very very shaky ground. We had family friends over for a few days which hashed things out a little, but it managed to culminate in me storming out of a big (and public) family dinner, walking home and heading to the freezer for icecream and ranting to my lovely lovely 22-year-old family friend Flora, who totally understood how I felt for her father and mine are practically the same person wtf. When father came home, I burst into tears again - I was honestly sobbing so hard it was a little difficult to breathe for a while - but things ended well. A day or two later, my dad expressed his wish for an instax wide and I offered help him buy it online. But then - "you know what dad? You bought me a car. I'll buy you this." I think this is the first significant thing I've bought for my dad with my own money. It made me happy, making him happy, and knowing my relationship with him would only benefit from it.















I so love my 35mm lenses!! ♥

P.S. I think I shall name him Sampson, after Angus Sampson, the hilarious Australian comedian. LOOK UP "ANGUS SAMPSON THANK GOD YOU'RE HERE" ON YOUTUBE IF YOU DON'T ALREADY KNOW WHO HE IS! YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED I PROMISE YOU!!

So my good friend Neel needed a small photo for this Comedy Festival he's part of so he asked me to take a couple of shots for him. ..And, of course, I took it much too seriously, even making him button up his shirt, giving him my glasses, and shoving a highlighter and a multi-colour pen in his pocket. I'm really glad how the shots turned out, the lighting was great and Neel is a very photogenic model! :P


















Not gonna lie, it was really fun! We had a lot of muckup shots too, involving a towel, seedy looks and a stair banister (it was the pose. He looked like a girl) :')

I'll be taking some more photos of him soon because he needs some headshots for his acting portfolio I think, can't wait to do that! Sunny said he'd lend his camera which is very kind of him, so the quality of the photos are going to be infinitely better, even though they'll have to be very simple and rather plain anyway. Still! Something to look forward to. ^.^ See you all soon! ♥
