Brad Chiplin's photostream  

My beautiful partner was kind enough to let both me and Allan Nielsen do a maternity shoot on Saturday afternoon. As always, I learned a heck of a lot from Allan doing this session. I'm even starting to enjoy this portrait photography thing a little bit too!

Pretty happy with how these came out. My first experimentation with high key, and it definitely works with this kind of photography. I definitely prefer b&w for these kinds of images.

Not long until we're both parents :)

Another shot from Point Cartwright the other morning. I was tempted to stay in bed and not bother heading to the 'Sunshine' coast because of the good old weather radar. I'm glad that I took the gamble now. There was a slight break in the rain giving just enough opportunity to get a handful of shots.

Press L to view it large on black (it looks heaps better) :)

Been awhile since I last did one of these, and to be honest, it'll probably be a long time before I do it again :P

Got up early this morning to head up the coast to check out Pt Cartwright properly. Conditions were pretty ordinary, but the sky put on a bit of a colour show for a minute or two...before the rain moved in.

Cleveland Point jetty, playing with some long exposure.

Inspired by Thomas Leong. If you haven't seen his work it's definitely worthy of your time to check it out. Definitely one of my favourite photographers here on Flickr.
