Hey there! I'm James & welcome to my brand new Journal. I update this Journal every few days so that you'll become hooked on my work and hire me! May as well be honest, right?
Make sure you check back often, leave me some comments and go back through the history to see what I've been up to.
While I live in Armidale, NSW, Australia, I am available to photograph anywhere and everywhere.If you've got something you'd like me to photograph, please get on that phone and tell me about it!

Flip I’m nice. Maybe just today?
Today I will share almost everything! Everything but the parasailing images, because Lauren has taken them hostage!
Let’s start with Lisa and Luke’s Engagement!
We met in Dorrigo, amongst some of the most breathtaking scenery on this planet. Wicked shots, wicked couple.
When Julia and Mick came to me, I just knew I had to shoot their wedding. They’re a super real, no bull type of couple, which I totally love. It’s actually one of the things I love about living in Australia.. and particularly the country. People are in general very genuine.
Julia asked if she could bring the dogs.. and I was totally for that. Check out the pics we got with the dogs. AWESOME!
I’ll be shooting their wedding the day after coming back from Kristi and Richard’s wedding in Hawaii later this month, in The Hunter Valley.

I know this may sound silly.. but I keep forgetting to blog my shoots other than weddings. I have so many to share, but I keep forgetting! I have a tonne to share with you over the next few weeks.
For today’s installment, I have the pleasure of sharing Trish and Scott’s engagement. We did this shoot a few weeks ago shortly after Scott got out of hospital, and not that long before the wedding!
On a completely seperate note (and this is by no means directed at anyone - just a general statement)
You might notice the new format for the images. I am just experimenting a little.. You might notice the faint “proof only - do not copy” on the images. That’s just a gentle reminder to you all that these images are to be used for the following purposes only:
1. Facebook style websites. (if you are using the images, they must not be cropped, or altered in any way.
2. Emailling to friends and family. (same goes…)
3. Screen savers etc..(and same goes again…)
4. Wedding Websites. (a link to my journal below the image must also be provided)
For any other purposes, please contact me.
Back to Trish and Scott. I hope this is a good representation of the fun we had that afternoon. Let’s do it again? 
Hey Folks,
Welcome to blogging every day for a month, day 2!
As you can imagine, there’s only so much time that I can put aside to blog, and sometimes AWESOME photoshoots end up not being blogged. That’s the case for Brock and Sandy’s engagement, which we shot around 5 months ago!
Some of you may recognise Brock, he’s a rather well known country music star! His wedding is coming up soon, and I can’t wait to be a part of it and get to create the images that they love forever.
Tomorrow? Kerrie and Dave’s Lighthouse wedding!

Finally!
I have time to blog… sort of..
I have 10 minutes before picking up Lauren from work.
Ok let’s see how much we can do in 10 minutes!
I met Richard and Kristi at a wedding I second shot in Canada.. Kristi was the sister of the bride and was awesome to shoot then… so I couldn’t wait for the opportunity to photograph her again. I CANNOT wait to shoot their wedding next month in Hawaii!!!! Lauren and I are both going for a few days mid week between my other weddings. It’s going to be a blast!
Richard & Kristi are both animators and richard was actually involved in making Yakkity Yak. I might be spelling that wrong..
