Maggie McGinty Dynamic headshots and family portraits to claim your space, and capture your memories
(10)

Photographer, comedian and author, I live in beautiful Adelaide with my husband and our three dogs. I'm mum and stepmum of three grown up boys (well, they're men, but they'll always be boys to us!), and step-gran to four gorgeous grandies. I know that we have to squeeze every moment of laughter and joy out of life, and my work aims to reflect that. Check my website for more details, and if you have any questions get in touch.

Ahem! Five stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Looking forward to this, this evening - tune in at 9.30 - or earlier if you want more Jason for your money!

Since we're still in the silly season, let's just all have a magical Monday. Oh and if you feel like it, tune in to Radio ABC Adelaide tonight at 9.30pm. I'll be sitting in with my old pal Jason Chong on his evening radio show, playing a few of my favourite records that bring back memories and having a good ol' chat

Hey everyone, just to let you know I'm not on here so much - I've reverted to photography for fun rather than business.

Just click on to my Maggie the Celtic Celebrant page. Thanks lovelies!

Dress rehearsal done and dusted, this show is ready for an audience. If Tracy's work is your thing then you will love this one - guaranteed!

Here I am, waiting for you to arrive ... preview tonight!
Half of the shows are sold out, and this weekend, there's one place left for Saturday's matinee, and about ten for Saturday night.
I know it's a cliche, but it's not a show until you arrive, so thank you to everyone who is coming along. I'm looking forward to sharing this mostly true, slightly made-up story with you.
All right, well I'm off to pilates, and then a nice cup of tea.

Happiness is... managing to plonk out a few more thousand words on the novel I'm not-writing. I've been not-writing it now for six years and I'm still on the first draft, but these people who inhabit it live in my head all. the. time. They're wonderful people dealing with life's trash and treasure as best they can, just like everyone else. It's set in Glasgow, and it's a bit of a love letter to the city. Maybe one day I'll finish it, it would be a shame for no one else to know their triumphs.

So happy to see this script come to life. It might be a personal take by Tracy on mid-life, but the themes and thoughts are universal. Even as the director, I thoroughly recommend it.

She's on the trip of a lifetime: middle-aged, menopausal and forgotten to buy her ticket. Sitting in the station cafeteria drinking over-brewed tea and eating stale croissants, a stranger asks her, 'Do I know you?' This simple question will change the course of her life forever. It's a Gen-X lame...

UPDATE: Thanks so much for the great response to the call out. I'd like especially to reach out to our non-traditional families - rainbow families, single parents, grandparents bringing up grandies etc - families take many forms and I want to represent us all. I have two spaces left, so if you're a traditional or non traditional family and would like some family shots, please get in touch! :)

Longing to get back to outdoor shoots now the weather is perking up. Does your fam need a photo update? Get in touch!

Kehau Jackson, comedian - both funny and beautiful. When I photograph someone I want them to see the beauty in themselves that I see. Might sound cheesy but it's true, and that's why portraits and headshots are always my first loves in photography.

Great day with Kehau to deliver some new head shots. These are just quick edits of us fooling around but gosh, I think they capture the sheer joy of this very talented comedian. Looking forward to completing her whole gallery.

Heads up folks, this is what you'll be hearing from me in the next month and a half.
As you may know, my lovely Steven has been living with an incurable prostate cancer diagnosis since late 2018. Every day we live with the words of the clinician "With the right treatment you can have a few good years yet.
I'm tired of feeling like we're at the mercy of this awful disease, so to help at least a bit, I'm doing the Walk for Him challenge to help raise funds for the Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia.
The team there does great work to support families like ours whose loved one is dealing with this wretch of a killer.
Here's the proposition; by the end of Men's Health Week (21 June) I will have walked at least 49000 steps.
I know it doesn't seem so much for such a long period of time, but after taking a year to heal my leg and ankle after a bad fall last year, I've only been able to walk properly for a few months now, so I'm taking this opportunity to (slowly) kick prostate cancer's arse.
If you have something to spare, please donate via my Walk for Him page. If you don't, please spread the word - it all helps. And if you're a bloke over 40, please make sure your gp is monitoring your PSA - get the bloods done!

49 Aussie men are diagnosed with prostate cancer every day. I’m doing the Walk for Him to help fund more research, more nurses, more advocacy, and much greater awareness. I’d love your support! Please donate if you can and help me complete 49,000 steps.

The story so far...

It started with The Joy Protocol period, coaching, and comedy, then I recently published 'Don't Take My Advice', in response to the common questions and issues I had heard from my clients.

Now that phase is over and I’m working on my first novel - working title ‘Tree, Bird, Fish, Bell” - modern life and ancient magic combine to guide four people when their lives are about to be turned upside down. Does everyone deserve a second chance? And will it be enough to avert a life of regret?
