I was sitting there, watching TV on my couch, as I have been for years, waiting to go to bed where I've laid my head for a decade, only to get up and head to work in a wave of people, making a living, to do the same thing all over again tomorrow. No more. Something needs to change. Now, I'm homeless with no commitments, no bills, no possessions, and armed with a passport. My skills as an artist and photographer have called me...
This is the adventure of a lifetime. It all starts here in Brisbane. I have many great friends and have had numerous opportunities in what I consider the most colorful city in Australia. A lifetime of experiences, some amazing and some, well, you know, memories that have made us stronger and better. But for now, I need to say goodbye. The world awaits...
This blog will be a little different, as scrolling through countless countries might be confusing. Instead, I will post little highlights and links to the blogs of each country. I am ready to embark on an adventure to see this blue planet we call Earth. Are you ready to join?
On the 13th of September, I was back in Australia for the weekend to shoot a lovely couple's wedding on the beach at Froggy's, Coolangatta. Froggy's is located on the border of New South Wales and Queensland, and what a day it was! It was so much fun. The couple was full of energy, and everything was picture perfect. We even had dolphins and whales jumping out in the background during the ceremony. Friends were cheering, smiling, and laughing all the way until the night's end.
On the 31st of October, I made it back to Brisbane for a week of entertainment and catching up with friends, both new and old. It was a great time revisiting old haunts. First, I attended the Chemical Brothers concert at Riverstage in Brisbane city, and it was an amazing experience. Following that, I had a few dinners in West End, the city, and East Brisbane, and there were a few blurry nights as well. Then, it was Melbourne Cup 2019. Although I didn't win on the horse, I had a fantastic night being a photographer at an awesome event at Moda Restaurant.
I arrived in Adelaide just in the nick of time to say hello to my brother and his wife and have a laugh with the whole family before flying back to Brisbane to photograph a wedding for an amazing couple. It was a very long day with two ceremonies and a lot of laughs. The day started at 7 am and didn't end until 10 pm. What a day! It was also a momentous day for our family as I became an uncle. The 23rd of November will forever hold a special place in our family's life.
The last couple of days have been a lot of fun. I've been busy editing wedding photos, creating graphic designs for a client, and working on a massive drawing project. With all this creative work, it feels like Christmas is just around the corner. Can anyone take a guess at what the drawing might be?
And now the countdown is on for my number one bucket list holiday destination. After a quick trip to Adelaide to see my new niece, can you guess where I'll be heading soon?
Here's a hint: They still can't fully explain why they were built or the true nature behind their construction. No, it's not Jordan, but it's a neighboring country. I just had to stop and witness another one of the Seven Wonders of the World.
