Photos by Jessica

As designers we’re used to pouring over the results of a photoshoot hunting for just the right cover shot, sometimes only to be told the artist doesn’t like that image of themselves. The simple truth is that most people are pretty picky when it comes to how they look, whether it’s appearing on the front of a classical music cd, or sticking a photo of yourself up on your lounge room wall. We all know what we don’t mind about ourselves and what we most especially (must be avoided at all costs) hate. So it was with a little trepidation that we booked ourselves a family photoshoot recently with the very lovely Jessica from Photos by Jessica. Like us she hails from the lands down under and so we had plenty to natter about as she snapped our family skipping and posing around a chilly park one October morning. It was a such a lovely experience that we almost forgot we were having our photos taken – ahh the wiley ways of the clever photographer. And were we picky as we poured over our own photoshoot results? Of course! They are going on our lounge room wall afterall.
