2021.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Here we are. I cannot wait to see what you have in store!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
we let go of what was, accept what is, and have hope in everything that will be.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
through all that has unfolded, and through all of this unknown, you have evolved. more than you even know.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
so, stop shrinking yourself into places that you have already outgrown.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
remember that when everything is uncertain, everything that is certain becomes clear.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
you can be afraid and brave at the same time. so, do your best and know that doing your best will mean different things on different days.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
you didn't come this far, to only come this far.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
you owe it to yourself to do all the things you've dreamed of.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
trust that if it's meant for you, it won't miss you.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
sometimes, we just need to breathe, trust, let go, and see what happens.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
every little thing is going to be alright.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
the pages ahead are unwritten, and it's time to live your story.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
so get out your rainbow colours, and go make it beautiful.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

December - Sandy Beach.

For many people 2020 wasn’t their year. While it certainly wasn’t mine to begin with either, I do feel somewhat guilty because 2020 was one of the best years I could have asked for!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The twists and turns, the changed plans x 100. While I could spend hours chatting to you about the changes, and all the amazing adventures, the laughs, the food and the memories, I feel this quote captures it just right.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
“…to stop and reflect on the year that has gone by. To remember both our triumphs and missteps, our promises made and broken. The times we opened ourselves up to great adventures or closed ourselves down for fear of getting hurt. Because that’s what a new year is all about, getting another chance. A chance to forgive, to do better, to do more, to give more, to love more. And stop worrying about what if and start embracing what would be. So…let’s remember to be nice to each other, kind to each other…”

November
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
“…real happiness isn’t something large and looming on the horizon ahead, but something small, numerous and already here. The smile of someone you love. A decent breakfast. The warm sunset. Your little everyday joys all lined up in a row.”
― Beau Taplin
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This was a little moment of happiness when I received a call asking if I wanted to photograph a family in their first crop of wheat before it was harvested in a couple of days. The morning was filled with laughter, jokes and oh so beautiful light.

October - Bald Rock
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In the cool air of the tablelands, the stars shining bright, we started climbing the rock face.

With fresh coffee in the flask, headlights on and giggles that echoed out in the National Park.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We made it to the peak quicker than expected. Allowing us to breath ‘smoke’ for a couple of minutes before watching the sun break over horizon on land that had a welcoming feel.

I live for these moments.

September - Maclean

There was a magic about this marriage. Magic in the way they looked at each other, the way they celebrated and the way the navigated the challenges of an ever-changing 2020. As many know I don’t often photograph weddings, but when a beautiful email came through kindly asking due to their photographer being confined to Queensland, something felt right. It felt right on the day, as they smiled, speaking calmly and absolutely awe of each other. It was a love I hadn’t seen in a while, the little moments, the magic.

August – Federal
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
A small cabin tucked away in Federal, a warm fireplace and fresh gin from a local distiller.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
A magical evening followed by a slow morning filled with coffee and in-depth conversations about children, cancer and life’s obstacles.

July - Uralla

Nothing beats a Sunday morning in a small country town. A slow wander down the streets of Uralla. The crisp air as the frost settled on the ground while settling my mind.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The day before we had been up before sunrise, with a cool temperature of -3 we had headed excitedly to the fall lookout to watch the sunrise before walking the waterfall track.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
As the frost and fog sprawled over the valley, sweeping in like a magic carpet we were in awe of the glistening frost on the grass beneath our boots.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
To this day this weekend away has been one of the most memorable.
