Father + son at Karnimata

I took this photo while I was in India in 2006. We went to Deshnok to visit Karnimata, which is a Hindu temple where they worship rats!! It was a crazy place to visit, there are a few other photos already in my blog that I took at this place. I was taking photographs of some kids and this man tapped me on my shoulder and pleaded I took photos of his son aswell. He was such a proud dad!!

Today, I got myself a Flickr account - go to http://www.flickr.com/photos/sammblake/ to check it out!! All my photographs will be appearing on here sooner or later! ;)

Ollie Brockman

Here is another photo of little Ollie. I took this at Jess's wedding, it was his first time out and about since leaving the hospital. He is just the cutest baby. Im sure there are going to be many photos to come of this little guy!

school girls

Kate, Jenni, Rianna, Tess, Becci, Jess, Nell, Samm, Sarah and Roxy.

This photo was taken at Jess's wedding on the 5th May. I went to high school with all these girls, it was amazing to see them all again! It was great to be able to catch up with Kate and Jenni, who I have not seen much of in the last seven years. Ive know Roxy, Jess, Jenni and Kate since I was about five years old. Its so great to be able to catch up with them because we now all live in different places and when we do it feels like nothing has ever changed.

Jess and Wade

Last weekend I was my dear friends Jess and Wade's wedding. I meet Jess when we were in kindergarten about 20 years ago! She has been a great friend to me ever since and it was such an honor to be invited to her wedding. I was so excited to get to go to a wedding as a 'guest' without being the 'pro photographer'! (I never get to go as a guest!!) However I couldn't resist taking a few photos throughout the ceremony =) They had their ceremony in Albany out at Quaranup, it was cloudy all morning and we all thought it was going to rain for the ceremony, but just as Jess began walking down the aisle, the sun broke through the clouds, it was amazing day =)
