Update from Melbourne

Jordan — Mon, 20 Feb 2012 04:47:14 +0000

So the shoot went REALLY well. It’s great to work with such a great team. Big thanks to Eyndia Gopal from Stickman Collective. That man knows how to produce a shoot.

I’ve been taking so many street photos in the city during my time off, Melbourne really is a photographer’s playground. I can’t wait to upload some of my shots.

I’ve got another shoot this week, and a meeting on Wednesday, which I am quite excited about.

It might mean a bit of jetting between cities this year for different jobs, but the possibility of setting up base in Melbourne is looking good.

Stay tuned for some street photography, and not long until I can tell you all about the shoot that I flew over for.

Loving Melbourne!

It’s day three in Melbourne and I’m loving it!

Breakfast in Degraves Lane was really nice, and we bumped into a good friend from Perth by chance, I love moments like that.

We then headed to Federation Square and saw some Kinetic Sculptures by Theo Jansen, very cool. I had seen them on YouTube, so it was cool to see them moving in person.

In the afternoon we went to meet with the client and finalise the location, then we headed off to collect the different outfits for the shoot. (which are amazing, great work by the creative director, Eyndia Gopal, can’t wait to see it all styled

I can’t wait to start shooting tomorrow
