Hi All,
Well I'll get this forum rolling and introduce you to what I do.

My photography business is aimed at the real estate market but as you'd all know we all end up shooting a wide wide variety of subjects.

So here are just a few samples. - There's heaps more here at my Travelling Photographers (http://www.travellingphotographers.com) website

Some shoes I did ages ago - but every season I shoot more shoes for this client

Some Real Estate Shots

I use these two photos as training for my new staff as an example of always trying different perspectives - and "blocking". It happens a lot in houses with couches, bench tops and poles etc cutting the photo and making the area look smaller. This is the same yard, but without the pole in it and it looks huge.

And same yard:

I think they ended up using the right hand side for the cover of the cd, and the left hand side of the photo for the inside of the cd case.


So that's a rather lengthy intro on some of the things I shoot. As more interesting jobs come in I'll make sure I post up some examples - at least just to show you all the weird and wonderful ways you can earn a living from photography. :-)

You've come a long way, Vicky. I'm so happy the business has taken off for you like this. You're doing great work!

Congrats! :love: I enjoyed looking at these. Feel free to post more.

What a wonderful and varied cross section of photos!

I checked out your site and I really love the architecture/real estate shots. You have a real knack for it, IMO. Love that band portrait above too.

Thanks everyone.
Yes Terri I've been working hard. I've been so busy. It's hard to believe the business is almost 2 years old. I'm still always looking at ways to expand though and to tap in to new markets/genres of photography.

If you liked those real estate photos you'll LOVE these: http://www.lovelylisting.com/ HAHAH! :lol:
This is my favourite website - it's full of terrible real estate photos. I spend hours on there laughing. I even forward it to my real estate agents and they love it too.


Unbelievable really.

(as to your photos) Oh my they are lovely! It's great to see what you do!
(as to the other) Good grief! Some people obviously don't spend a lot of time thinking...
