'Deep Grey' Photographers Workshop - The Heather & Doug Records

‘Can’t’ … It’s entering my vocabulary for the next sentence and the next sentence only! (Didn’t you always get told whilst growing up that ‘can’t’ isn’t a word?.. I certainly did!)

You can’t work all the time. You can’t play all the time either. … Ahhhhhhhh but you caaaaaaaan take the hand with the ‘work’ in it… and take the other hand with the ‘play’ in it… and put those two hands together! ….

On Wednesday, 9 Photographers from Christchurch and that one token photographer from Dunedin took the day off from editing and computer work to attend the most relaxed, fun and inspiring workshop by Adam Murphy of Deep Grey (Brisbane).
Kelly Shakespeare Photography offered up her house and we lay on her lawn and learn from Adam who has 10 working years experience in the field in both Weddings and Portraits. Later that night, the gorgeous couple you see below (Doug’s image) jumped into some golden sunlight of the late evening and we had ourselves some ‘out in the field’ fun!

So here are some behind the scenes of some truly talented and rockin photographers in our industry!

Meet Adam …

I had more fun just shooting the shooters! I am going to list the names of the photographers who attended at the bottom of my blog. Be sure to check out their work!

I got a couple of sneaky photos in though. How gorgeous is Lauren!

Miss Kimberley Cheyne Photography showing us how’s it done!!

And Kelly Shakespeare herself! Isn’t she a delight!

Darn it.. I thought I was invisible!…I was caught getting the wide angle of what everyone was shooting!

The golden light brought on smiles, laughter and so much silliness! … Yes.. I did just do something really silly! haha I’m not going to tell you what though! ;-)

Aren’t they beautiful!

The sun was at that beautiful point for silhouettes. …So like Lions, we took to the grass and some of us jumped into the spotlight instead!

And then the tables turned… and our models took control… He looks a little too cheeky .. should we trust him??! hehe

Thanks for a fantastic workshop Adam. I know everyone had A LOT of fun! And we all came away feeling revived and so inspired. Come back anytime! We welcome you with open arms!
