April showers bring May flowers? 
The rainy days have arrived in Florence and I'm hearing these little sayings that make me feel so foreign. April means rain for sure in Australia, but flowers in May? no, April showers bring May evacuations, humidity and maybe new gumboots...
The air was more crisp and fresh today after the rain - this was the weather I remember from last year and packed adequately for this year

Starting this journey into photography feels like catching up with an old friend – my trusty Canon camera, a gift from my filmmaker dad over a decade ago. While life kept me busy raising my wonderful daughters, Sahana and Dylana, I put photography on hold for bedtime stories.

And our teachers, full of wisdom and encouragement, make every click of the camera feel like a chance for something great.

Its symbolism has changed over time, from status in society, to sign of innocence and propriety. While some view the veil as a way to divide god and men, biblically the veil is seen as access, unity and intimacy with the Divine. Besides its enduring religious significance, veiling continues to play a role in almost all cultures on the planet to this day. I've worn veils  throughout my life, all 3 of my weddings, religious ceremonies an aplenty of times for fun. Like this shoot with my girls (and self portraits on timer). And the significance of the rose.... that's for another time

High Key Portraits
