Day 365 of 365 | 365 Self-Portrait Project

Well we just photographed our final wedding for the year and shot our final 365 self portrait photo. Yes we had a wedding on New Years Eve:)This is a test shot I did before getting the Bride & Groom in for their shot.

It has been an amazing and crazy busy year for us. We shot over 60 weddings, plus portraits, engagement and pre wedding shoots. We shot weddings in Sydney, Canberra, Brisbane, Sunshine Cost, Fiji and Bali. We started the year off with a mini holiday in Tasmania. And in winter, we got to travel overseas for a month spending time in Finland, Hong Kong and most of our time driving around France.

As for the 365 Self-Portrait Project itself… it’s been a long hard slog trying to take a self portrait every day. When you are shooting as much as we have this year, and you spend all day editing photos, designing albums and working on your photography business, it’s hard to get inspired to take a photo of yourself. Would I do it again…. hmmm not sure… probably not. It’s a big commitment and I got sick of taking so many photos of myself… I much prefer taking photos of other people. But it is kinda cool looking back at the photos and seeing exactly what you did on that day in 2011.

We wanted to wish everyone a Happy New Year and we hope 2012 will be an amazing year for you and your family. And good luck to anyone who is about to start their own 365 project!!
