Sharing one of my favourite products - the Crystal Block. Transform your photo into a bold statement piece: printed on archival metallic paper and mounted behind sleek, thick acrylic—ready to command attention on any shelf or desk. No DIY framing - it's ready to go onto your shelf display and they look epic with small plants or other collectibles.

A delightful moment for this family at a Baptism. Most churches have those stunning high windows with streams of light skimming across the profiles of the humans - this was one of those moments.

Lion & Cub Photography photographs family milestones. If you have an event, consider a professional photographer to take the stress away from trying to do it all - plus you need to be in the photos - not taking them!

Pene wanted her 50th at Customs House Sydney to be the best party she ever had! It was absolutely spectacular with her best friends with harbour views, fine wines and exquisite food. To commemorate this occasion, she ordered this beauty from SELDEX. This a custom Boutique Album in Cornflower Linen with customized gold embossing on the spine and cover. Even better, the album arrived printed, bound, packaged and ready to give to present in all its glory, with white cotton gloves, an album care guide and a certificate of authenticity. Simply the best quality for a distinguished lady with luxury tastes!

Once upon a time, in the heart of a mother's love and a son's admiration, there existed a story waiting to be told. 📸💖 It's a tale of shared laughter, whispered secrets, and countless adventures together.

BTS with Nikki McLennan from Lion & Cub shooting upstairs at The Aerie at Tortuga Studios. The brief was to get a dynamic team portrait in studio then outdoors in the back streets of our studio! Luckily we have a huge space as this was a massive group! ✨ #personalbrandingphotography #businessportraitssydney #corporateheadshots #teamheadshotssydney #sydneycorporateheadshots #businessportraitssydney #innerwestbusinessphotos

What an extraordinary celebration for these lovebirds, merging the rich traditions of Turkish and Indigenous cultures into a vibrant union! Set at @fieldandfinsydney in Marrickville, the venue provided the perfect backdrop for this cultural fusion. The festivities began with a mesmerizing traditional Indigenous smoke ceremony and the haunting tones of the didgeridoo, setting the stage for an unforgettable experience. As the rhythm of Turkish drums filled the air, guests were swept away by the energetic and graceful movements of Turkish dancing. 💃💃💃 The theme of the evening was op-shop, igniting a riot of colors, textures, and styles that reflected the eclectic blend of cultures present. Guests donned outrageous outfits sourced from thrift stores, each ensemble a testament to individuality and creativity. Colored fans fluttered in the warm breeze, not only providing relief from the heat but also adding to the kaleidoscope of hues that painted the celebration. Against this backdrop of cultural exchange and sartorial extravagance, love reigned supreme, uniting people from diverse backgrounds in joy and celebration. It was an incredible mash-up of colors, cultures, and characters, creating memories that would be cherished for a lifetime. @fieldandfinsydney @parkerflorisphoto @lionandcubphotography #sydneywedding #sydneyweddingphotographer #marriedlife
