Fuji Instax
This is the Fuji Instax Mini 9. My girlfriend loves Polaroid cameras so I got this for her birthday. We previous owner a Polaroid branded one but if was a bit old now so a new one was needed. This Fuji model seems to be a bit better when it comes to metering and exposing… Read more
Joop Jump
This is the newest addition to my cologne collection. Joop Jump. I took this shot as a test for how well this lens would perform for product photography. I haven’t used my M5 for this style of photography since I sold off my 100L. The 32mm focal length isn’t exactly ideal for product shots but… Read more
Time
Although I don’t particularly like wrist watches (aside from Smart Watches), I really love pocket watches. This one I bought from a local store as I’ve always owned cheap ones off eBay, but never anything of decent quality. This image is actually taken on my bed with some fairly lights hung up in the background.… Read more
Nike Air Max 97
These are some sneakers I got on sale a few weeks ago. I always take a photo of my sneakers before I wear them for the first time and this was no different. To light this image I used my Godox AD200 and it is composed of 5 separate photos. Each photo was taken to… Read more
Fika By Cuppa Flower
This is a local restaurant called Fika by Cuppa Flower. Many people who live here in Sydney would be familiar with these restaurants as they are very popular and serve great food. If you are in Sydney, definitely check them out as the food is great! Read more
Godox AD200
This the Godox AD200 and the reason why I will never buy a Speedlite again. I had always been a fan of the Yongnuo flashes and I still think they’re the best value if you do want a speedlite. Originally I bought the Canon 430ex II which was a nice and small flash, but overpriced… Read more
Spaghetti Bokeh
Spaghetti Bolegnese is a nice and easy dish to make which makes it one of my favorites. We make it at least once a fortnight but I’ve never tried to take a photo of it. As I mentioned in my yearly review post, using my 85mm more is one of my goals. I shot this… Read more
Goodbye Dear Friend
The Canon EF 35mm f/2 IS has been my favorite and most used lens for nearly 5 years now. In saying this, I had to say goodbye to it and sold it this past weekend. When it comes to why I sold it, the reason is similar to the 100L. If I was to pickup… Read more
Ralph Lauren Sunglasses
Here are my new Ralph Lauren sunglasses that I bought recently. I have always bought cheap sunglasses off eBay that cost only a few dollars so these left a much larger hole in my wallet. Being that this item is new, I couldn’t resist but do some product shots of it. I originally tried to… Read more
Sony 90mm f/2.8 G Macro First Impressions
I’m very happy to say my Sony 90mm f/2.8 Macro lens has arrived 🙂 When I first unboxed it, I was pretty impressed with the build quality. The only thing I would say I don’t like about the lens design is the aperture ring as I prefer to do everything in camera. Something embarrassing and… Read more
