25.01.2022 - Product Photography - Here's a shot from a little iso passion project. The purpose of this project was to conceptualise, photograph and post process a technically challenging concept making sure to match lighting and camera settings, and then compose the final image in Photoshop. Of course, for this project I needed a worthy subject - Squealing Pig Wines Australia 's rose gin paired with soda and ruby grapefruits. If we're doing iso, I am at least going to do it in style...!

22.01.2022 So I've finally managed to achieve one of my iso goals, and I've redone my website! This site should be a bit more mobile friendly and also has a cool new blog section where I hope to include some basic tutorials and case studies of projects I've completed. If you're like me and running out of things to do in between watching Tiger King and growing a sourdough starter, feel free to check it out! www.lydiadowne.com Special shout out to Liz for taking a look at my old site and telling me all the areas that could be improved. This bad boy is hopefully an SEO/backlinks/mobile friendly machine!

20.01.2022 - Commercial Styling - At the start of this year I had to absolute pleasure of styling a shoot for the Department of Social Services' Carer Gateway campaign. The brief involved over 20 people, across 2 cities, taking into account the unique requirements of clients with a variety of different abilities and cultural backgrounds. ... It was a huge shoot, but I loved every second of it! Photography and production by the amazing team at @lightbulbstudio www.lydiadowne.com Brisbane, Australia

20.01.2022 This week is Fashion Revolution Week! A week dedicated to challenging the fast fashion industry, speaking out against inhumane and unsustainable practices, and reflecting on our own individual shopping habits. I wrote a bit of a blog about my journey into sustainable fashion and some useful resources if you're interested in getting on board yourself! Feel free to check it out!

18.01.2022 2020 has been one of the most challenging years I have experienced, not just on a personal front but also on a business front. Relocating to Brisbane coupled with COVID and then being stuck in a limbo in NSW for 3 month all had significant detrimental impact on my business. But there have also been some business successes. I rebuilt my website, got to work with a bunch of cool female-led startups, completed a shoot with 45 dogs and got to capture some beautifully intimate we...ddings. Here's to 2021, and hopefully a little less drama than this year! HAPPY NEW YEAR! Lydia

17.01.2022 - Portrait Photographer - Quick portrait of Jo and Brendan, the creators of Salti - a floating yoga/fitness program.

13.01.2022 - Event Photography - Easily one of the best media walls I have ever covered! Captured for the premiere of The Furies, an Australian horror film that (and I kid you not) took out the award for "Best Eye Trauma". Highlight of this media wall was the fact that people could use the actual gory props from the film. Getting a very 'American Gothic' vibe with this particular shot....

11.01.2022 **Model Appreciation Post** I can guarantee that anyone who has anything to do with photographers or videographers has more than likely been asked to step in and model at some point. This is my lovely partner who I roped in to hand model for Hon-E Haven Despite his initial protests I think he was actually pretty stoked to see a photo of his hands front and centre on the Hon-e Haven website. So heres to my partner and all the other roped in models! Thanks for lending a hand... ;) Photo by Lydia Downe Photography, Brisbane Australia. www.lydiadowne.com
