Prints for sale?

Written by admin
March 9th, 2010

For a little while we have been considering selling prints of some of our folio photos. We have had requests and questions on the subject but I thought it would be best to ask here if anyone thinks that would be a good idea.

We could only sell prints of images we own 100% of the rights to but that is most of the folio. I know the mermaid shots are popular and the black and white artistic shots. If you have any thoughts I would appreciate it if you’d pass them on to me (dean@deanagar.com.au)

I’ve put a gallery below of the kind of shots we could offer for sale on the next page.

The winner of the Sexpo competition for a free photo shoot is…

Written by admin
March 8th, 2010

…Kelly D’Agostini from Sydney.

We drew the winner today and Kelly came out first so she wins a $595 ‘Package 2′ photo shoot with $130 make up by Erin (www.erinbigg.com.au)

There is one slight glitch in that Kelly is from Sydney and was visiting Brisbane over the weekend. She has now gone back to Sydney but hopefully we can shoot her in the next 2-3 weeks and get the photos on here for you all to see. Watch this space.

UPDATE: Kelly is going to America soon so the shoot will be delayed until May so look out for it then.

Why are we different?

Doing a show like Sexpo gets you thinking about what makes you different from other photographers. What is different about the work, and the way we do things?

Sexpo all finished!

March 7th, 2010

That was a long few days and I only did half of the hours Karen did. No idea how she does it sometimes. We had Erin Bigg on our stand so a big thank you to her and to Cheryl who helped too and of course our Jason who did a 15 hour day on Saturday. If you need make up for weddings, parties or anything else, Erin is the girl to go to (www.erinbigg.com.au).

Three quarters through Sexpo :-)

March 6th, 2010

It’s Saturday night and we are three quarters through Sexpo now. It’s long days on the stand but Karen is a trooper and tonight we have our son, Jason, helping Karen out and he is great at that kind of thing. A born people person if ever there was one.

Today is 11am till 1am. That’s a tough gig in anyone’s book. I have so much respect for the promo girls who do this kind of thing regularly. Looking stunning for 14 hours and keeping a smile on your face when you are ready to drop into bed is quite a feat.

Shoot with Melissa

March 1st, 2010

In between preparing to exhibit at Sexpo (4th to 7th March 2010 – we are hoping to bring a touch of class to the proceedings :-) I’ve managed to get a couple of new shoots up on the blog.

This shoot was done late last year with Melissa. The shots are a gift for Melissa’s partner and he wanted a Gothic theme to the shots so this one is a little different.

Thank you to Melissa for permission to use the shots here.

If you’re interested in a shoot please contact Karen (0402 230669 – karen@deanagar.com.au) or Dean (0438 775299 – dean@deanagar.com.au)

Folio shoot with Erin

Written by admin
February 16th, 2010

Today Erin and I did a shoot which is our first together since 2007. That shoot had some great shots and one of them is still in the top 10 of all time in the fashion section of Photo.net when viewed by ‘Aesthetics’ so we had something to live up to :-) Photo.net has 3 million shots on there and the top rated lists contain 3000 shots so it was a pretty big deal for us to get in the top 10 there.

This shoot was to show off our new sets and experiment with what we could do with them.

Karen styled and Erin did her own hair and make up and I pointed the lights and camera. It was a long day and we have a truck load of shots to retouch so keep coming back as Erin’s gallery below will grow over the next week or two.

All the new sets are available to use in any of our packages and most of the clothing and accessories in the shots are ours for you to use.

If you’re interested in a shoot please contact Karen (0402 230669 – karen@deanagar.com.au) or Dean (0438 775299 – dean@deanagar.com.au)

Finally!! The new sets are done and ready to shoot.

After what seems like an eternity our new sets are in and ready to shoot. It’s been a long time as we had to go to China to get what we wanted and even then it had to be made for us. We ordered them last September so it’s been a while, then we had to wait weeks for the special wallpaper for the set walls. It’s been a trial of waiting and a lot of hard work but it’s finally done!

Angela, our regular model for folio updates, is currently doing a dance contract in Macau at the Hard Rock Hotel so we had to look elsewhere this time. I might be biased (Ang is my step daughter now :-) but she is a very hard act to follow.

Yesterday we shot Elisha for our folio and she was wonderful. I first met Elisha a couple of years ago as she works in a local store. I made a mental note then that if I was ever short of a great model I would ask her. Well that day came and she did a fantastic job. How on earth no one has asked her to model before I will never know.I hope someone notices her now she has some good shots.

I also have a shoot with Erin Bigg. I was lucky enough to shoot with Erin a few years ago. Since then we have both done pretty well in our fields and we see Erin regularly as she does make up for some of our clients.

In modelling Erin has done so much since she last was in front of my camera (she is in Ralph this month for example) so I cannot wait to shoot her on Tuesday. Keep an eye out for the shots as we are going for a real vintage boudoir, Dita Von Teese, Moulin’ Rouge kind of a thing. Going to be so much fun!

All the furniture, sets and clothing in these shots are part of our new items and are available to use in any of our shoot packages. If you wish to shoot with us contact myself (dean@deanagar.com.au, 0438 775299) or Karen (0402 230 669 – karen@deanagar.com.au)

I will be adding to this gallery over the coming days, so check back for more.

Great client comment

Written by admin
February 11th, 2010

I get a bit lazy with adding client comments, although we do appreciate them so much as it tells us we are doing something right.

This one I had to put up as it’s from a shoot we did late last year for Freya. The shots were for her boyfriend. Here’s her email.

Hey Dean,
Sorry – the years getting away from me already. I meant to already send an email to say thanks again for the photos! Rob was speechless, a difficult task to accomplish. he was completely blown away and thinks it was the most amazing gift i could have given him. I’ve shown a few of my friends and they all think they are incredible. I’ll have to keep an eye on your blog to see what you’re up to through the year :o )
Thanks to you and Karen for photos I’m always going to appreciate
cheers,
Freya
