Every year we have slide show nights and last year we started giving away little prizes for the most entertaining slide shows. One’s that keep your attention, move at a welcoming pace and use imagination in producing something to showcase their images. Malcolm Grant won the photographer side of things. He won a copy of Aperture 3.
Here’s one of the images he shot this year at Mission Beach during ZoeFest 2010.
Carlotta wanted me to shoot her face down in the pool, like a dead girl. She thought it would be \ii/, so I agreed. We got some pretty things too. 🙂 I loved this shoot and love working with Carly!
Every year I normally put together a slide show to showcase my photography. But I decided to show my modeling work this year. Enjoy.
I love working with Rei. I wish I could do it more often. I wish they all could be California models.
This was my first Zoefest and it has been such a wonderful experience. Unfortunately I had to say goodbye to Mission Beach half way through (to return home for a wedding) but my short stay was one to remember. The highlights for me were making new friends with amazingly creative people from around the world and creating the artwork that you see here. Submersing myself in the rich tropical environment which is totally inspiring and so different to where I live, and new experiences like shooting underwater. I had never done an underwater shoot before! It was hard work but so much fun.

In the land down under, it takes a lot to disturb others. They generally pass by with a curious look and go on their way without much fanfare. I asked parents with children if they cared before we did this and the response was, “Well, I reckon that’d be alright.” And the look was astoundingly that of “Why ask? Just do it.” So I was able to do something that would have gotten us all arrested in the United States and had a blast doing it. One lady even stopped to applaud us. Oh, just to be back there.
