Time to Celebrate

Wishing you all a really wonderful new year and may all your craziest wishes come true in 2011.xoxox

Balmoral

My favorite place to swim when I don't want to brave the waves is only 5 minutes away from where I am staying. Balmoral Beach is 20 minutes from down town Sydney but it is a world away. Sydney harbour has several beaches that are scattered along the shore. Unlike the coastal beaches where the waves range from 1 to 10 feet the water is calm and ideal for swimming. And yes there are several little restaurants and coffee bars to visit. My favorite is Awaba at the bottom of Awaba Road

Merry Christmas

There are a few things that National Geographic forgot to tell us about reindeer

Ingrid and Jeff Gordon

I ran into Ingrid and Jeff Gordon again last week at a private dinner held by Cartier. As always the stunning couple lit up the room as they entered. I first photographed Jeff at Jimmy and Chandra Johnson's wedding a few years ago in St Barths.
Here is a link to Jeffs personal album on his web site where he posted a few of my photos. Jeff Gordon Link
Best wishes to you all.

Ana and AJ at The Eden Rock Hotel. St Barths

Here are a few of the party photos from last week at the Botanical Garden. Now I am trying to make it easy for you all to order and down load the photos quickly so take a look and let me know what you think.

The Food Allergy Initiative Gala

Last night was the 13th Annual Food Allergy Initiative and with the hard work of Sharyn Mann the event raised over 4.5 million dollars. My niece suffers from food allergies and so this is a cause close to my heart. Thanks to everyone who attended and to those who donated and to those who are volunteering to take part in the new clinical trials.
In the crowd I spotted Jeff Gordon and his gorgeous wife, Julia Koch who always looks stunning, Mary Richardson Kennedy and her beautiful daughter Kyra.

Unicef Gala 2010

Last night I got to photograph the Unicef Gala at Cipriani. As always it was a beautiful event that raised over 2 million Dollars. To see all the photos you can visit Unicef Link
