MAYbe its time for a Newsletter?

It's been a while, in fact this is the first update for the year!

There's a good excuse though, it's been busy, busiest it's ever been. Not sure how, considering the 'GFC' and all, but hey we won't argue.

So this issue might be a bit longer than usual but that just means lots of cool photos to take a squiz at. Once you have scrolled your way to the bottom check out Pearse's latest creation, the kids photography website: Hundreds n Thousands

Water Polo- National 14, 18 & 20 Water Polo Championships

Pearse Photography photographed the 20 & Under National Championships in Sydney during January. Then, as part one of a two part Easter holiday extravaganza, we travelled to Perth to photograph the 14 & Under National Championships followed by a trip to Melbourne for the 18 & Under National Chanpionships completing 10 days straight of Water Polo! It's all part of our national contract to Australian Water Polo Inc. The Championships were a huge success and we managed to get some great action shots of the boys and girls competing for their respective clubs/states.

Jade Oakley - Paintings and Sculptures

Jade contracted Pearse Photography to photograph her paintings at Woolworths head offices in Sydney for record keeping and promotion purposes as well as photograph her sculptures for the upcoming exhibit at Australian Galleries in Glenmore Rd. from the 18th of June. The paintings were a challenge considering they were already framed and hung. The objective was to eliminate reflections in the glass.
