Amanda's hair

So I've been a little dormant with my blogging but here is a shoot I did for my lovely Amanda who shaved her hair for the "World's Greatest Shave" www.worldsgreatestshave.com.au/

I've know Amanda since she was a young girl and she has always had gorgeous long, thick and wavy locks.  When she told me she was going to shave her hair for charity I was shocked because when I asked her if she knew anyone who had cancer she explained that she didn't know anyone who did, however that she would like to donate her hair to Pantene www.beautifullengths.com.au/‎ (who take hair donations and create wigs for patients undergoing 

chemotherapy) 

and raise money for this amazing charity, not because she or any of her loved ones were affected by cancer,

but because she wanted to just help people who were in need.

The first series of photos was taken about a week or two prior to the shave and then the shave was done at 

Bunnings Warehouse where Amanda works.  A few of her colleagues also shaved their hair that day.  

It's been a month or two since Amanda has shaved her hair and she has always rocked her new hairdo.  The first 

day she shaved her head, she even went out to a party.  

Anyway enjoy the pictures :)

Day of the Shave

Alice's next chapter

Howdy everyone :)

I have a handful of some very amazing friends and I love to feature them in photo shoots.  In my eyes, I would always pick QUALITY of friends over quantity- and this is why I have such amazing people in my life.

So today's post will be of my amazing friend Alice (old work colleague of mine) who I did a photo shoot for quite a while back.  This photo shoot was to symbolize her new found freedom and to celebrate the next chapter in her life after having gone through a tough time in her life.  She is now happier than I have ever seen her and more radiant than ever :)

Alice is the type of girl who is absolutely beautiful and charismatic- and just about everyone loves her.  When we worked together, people would get us mixed up so we started saying we were twins (which was very flattering to me :)) - I saw Alice go through a lot during the time we worked together- I saw all of her emotions and there was even one point where she changed from the sweet caring Alice, to a bitter Alice, which stunned us all- but after a trip to Korea with her cousin- she explained to me that it was this moment as she was walking outside, the snow started to fall and with the falling snow- her sorrows were also washed away...
