Someone recently told me that they had expected to see a bit more of me on this here blog…they were surprised that there were so many pics of side-of-the-road furniture and not so much of me…this does not surprise me at all, my reluctance to be photographed is legendary….always makes it difficult to pose for a shot when trying to hide upper arms, chin, stomach rolls and chicken feet. Leaves one rather limited.
Anyway I began to muse this and found myself thinking about it more and more and after going through some holiday shots recently I had to admit, that standing most of the time behind the camera, there was not one single shot of me.
So, being rather brave and taking the bull by the horns, I hired myself a Vogue photographer and he suggested that we go into downtown Sydney…in the backstreets for a little bit of industrial chic. He said I was one of the best he had worked with. Not really. the other day Mr BC and I headed to the city for an appointment and because I had relayed the above to him and my camera was chucked in the back of the car he said righto, here we go…and wouldn’t let me off til he’d got some shots.
The funny thing is we both really enjoyed this. We laughed and laughed.
It may well have something to do with the fact that while I played model, Mr Beach Cottage rather than going for the David Bailey feel, took it down a step or two or up a shelf or two shall we say and went for Top Shelf Photographer.
And shouted things at me along the lines of ‘show us some ***’
It was hilarious and always a good thing to do when in the backstreets of working class Sydney…
Mr BC has decided he will be taking a new career path…one involving Top Shelf Photography and ahem slightly younger subjects.
I on the other hand will stick with vintage furniture.
See ya around
Unless your famous photographer has been air brushing all those photos all i see is a slim, trim chick!!!! so have no fear!!

Nice to see ya, Sarah – ur crazy – you are gorgeous and stylish!!! (Just like your blog!)
Oh so sweet. I’m rarely in the photos either, although my kids are starting to figure that out, and have confiscated my camera from time to time
I’m glad they did at a recent wedding we attended as they got photos of my husband and myself dancing together.
Blessings,
Marcia
