The Huon News asked if I could photograph the cover shot for their annual Christmas calender. A promise of a maccas dinner and play down on the beach is all it took to rope in my four boys and one from next door to dress up in elves and santa outfits.

I could easily spend a lifetime photographing the inherent beauty of this island state called Tasmania. While on the road with my family the car often comes to a sudden halt as I scramble out the door to grab a shot. Here is a few not so touristy images from a recent trip.

In December 2006 Tom and Ana were married in Brisbane. They are expecting their first child in two months and wanted some photos to remember this time whilst waiting the arrival of their first born child. Having earlier this year moved to Cairns for work they were keen to come to Tassie to cool off for a bit and enjoy a well earned holiday. In cold and drizzly conditions we went down to the waters of the mighty Huon River for some photos.

2009-08-14T15:29:00.002+10:00

On a recent visit to Brisbane I caught up with Terry and Anthea at New Farm Park with their dog Molly. I had met Anthea about three and a half years ago when I took their family portaits. Anthea's mum Coral rung me several months ago to see if I was available to fly back to 'the mainland' to photograph her daughter's wedding, an offer I definitely couldn't refuse. Terry and Anthea will wed on the 17th of October 2009 at the Stamford Plaza Hotel in Brisbane.

Last week we had a bit of a cold snap here in the Huon Valley. The mountains we see from our home had some good snow falls. I set out with my camera one afternoon to try capture an image showing the amazing autumn colours as well as the snow on the mountains. Two days after taking this shot the snow had melted and the leaves had started falling off the trees. Sleeping Beauty is the mountain you see in the background.

2009-05-15T20:14:00.001+10:00

No need for mobile phones here in Tassie, phone booths can be found in pretty much any paddock!

2009-05-15T20:06:00.000+10:00

There is a small shack just down the road from our place. One afternoon there happened to be this amazing light in the valley being created by a bush fire in the western sky. I raced home to grab my camera and managed to capture this amazing autumn scene with the suns rays creating a beautiful back-lighting on the aspen trees.

Hi Everyone,

We have some exciting news.

We are relocating to Tasmania, for a sea change or is it a tree change. We have decided to slow down for a while and watch our children grow up (as well as our apple trees, and Jon’s potatoes).

Even though all our family is here in Brisbane and our photography studio is going better than ever we have decided this is an opportune time to try something ‘different.’

Due to demand, Jon will continue photographing weddings in Brisbane next year, so please continue referring us as Jon has withdrawal symptoms if his camera sits in the bag for more than a day without use!

You still will be able to contact us on Jon’s mobile or via our current email addresses; we would love to hear from you.

Check out our blog in the near future as we will post photos of our beautiful home in the Huon Valley.

We would like to take this opportunity to wish you and your family a wonderful Christmas and a blessed new year.

All the best,

Jon, Iris and the boys.

Mika & Jo

Mika & Jo came to Australia as boyfriend and girlfriend and left a married couple!

Here is their story...

Jo was a leader at YWAM in Finland and Mika was a student of YWAM. Over the course of time an attraction grew between the two. However YWAM rules were that a leader was not to date a student.

The day of the graduation Mika approached another leader to ask if the course was officially finished. He was told it had, so he promptly went to ask Jo if she would like to start dating, she must have said yes.

They came to Australia in September for a holiday with all of Jo's family. Mika popped the big question and within 3 weeks they were walking down the aisle.

The ceremony was held at the local Finish church at 7pm and reception to follow at the churches hall. It was such a special affair enjoyed by all guests who wished the very in love couple all the best.

All the best guys from Jon and Iris.
