Newborn Photo Shoot

Limitless Photography — Sat, 21 Jan 2012 00:00:00 +0000

Bringing Baby Home

Once a baby is born - like precious Evie shown in this photo - time flies so quickly it’s hard to remember to pick up a camera and capture the moments. That’s why we offer a Newborn Photo Shoot as part of a combined package with a Maternity Sitting.[more]

We bring our portable studio to your home soon after your baby has arrived. We then use professional quality lighting to capture candid and portrait style images of baby, mum and dad. Our photos will quickly become a part of your treasured family album.

As part of our Newborn Shoot, Limitless Photography can provide baby cocoons, beanies and other props to suit either a boy or girl.

These memorable photos are available as part of a combined package that includes photographs of both the maternity sitting and the newborn at home, both done with studio-quality lighting and equipment.

Maternity Photos Capture Mum’s Glow

Even before little Evie was born, her parents knew they wanted to capture the all-too-fleeting moments leading up to her birth.[more]

By setting up a portable studio in the comfort of the parents’ home, we were able to capture both mum and dad in a setting that enhanced the natural beauty of the coming event.

After the shoot, we did a light digital retouch on minor imperfections, while retaining the natural look of the proud parents-to-be.

Beach Wedding Photography

Limitless Photography — Sun, 08 Jan 2012 00:00:00 +0000

“I do”, Beach Style

Imagine the beautiful beach at Kingscliff, a small-scale intimate gathering, and a beautiful bride and handsome groom. Nothing says romance like a beach wedding.

Our professional photographer moves unobtrusively, almost unseen among the guests, capturing the couple’s arrival, the ceremony, the spectacular setting, and the friends and family who had gathered to witness the joyful occasion. The beautiful photos truly provided a fairy-tale ending to the day.

If you’re planning an outdoor wedding, we’ll take the photos - you provide the love.

New campaign to embed information permanently in digital media

Peter Myers — Wed, 14 Dec 2011 23:30:38 +0000

A picture may be worth 1,000 words, but permanently attached descriptions are worth a lot more as photos travel through the digital world.

A campaign has been launched now to embed descriptive and rights information in digital media and to retain it during the whole life cycle.

The initiative has been launched by the International Press Telecommunications Council (IPTC), the American Association of Advertising Agencies (4A’s), and the Association of National Advertisers (ANA), with the support of trade organisations representing visual arts and photo agencies. It aims to establish the practice of applying descriptions and the copyright status of the content as metadata, and to embed it permanently during the electronic exchange of digital photo, text, audio or video files.

This practice is based on the principles defined by the Embedded Metadata Manifesto on the web site www.embeddedmetadata.org which invites organisations and individuals to support the campaign.

The campaign is designed for producers and users of digital media and the hardware and software vendors who play a key role in enabling interoperability in data exchange. The business benefits for both producers and users include efficient delivery, successful retrieval, and improved rights management.

“Metadata is an important driver for business productivity, so it should always be retained. Too much data is currently lost,” said Michael Steidl, managing director of the IPTC which created the Embedded Metadata Manifesto. “It is time for content creators, distributors and software vendors to work together to bring about conditions where business can make use of metadata to track and preserve media files, copyright and other rights, as this is critical for the creative industries that depend on that for their existence.”

“Embedding descriptive information into commercial files, removes manual steps, and duplication of effort, which can save time and money, and forms the foundation for more efficient operations, measurement, and monetization of advertising assets. These are the core reasons why the 4A’s and ANA partnered to create Ad-ID, the United States standard for identifying Advertising assets across all media platforms,” said Harold Geller, Senior Vice President Cross Country-Industry Workflow for the 4A’s.

The five key principles of the Embedded Metadata Manifesto are:

1. Metadata is essential to describe, identify and track digital media and should be applied to all media items which are exchanged as files or by other means such as data streams.

2. Media file formats should provide the means to embed metadata in ways that can be read and handled by different software systems.

3. Metadata fields, their semantics (including labels on the user interface) and values, should not be changed across metadata formats.

4. Copyright management information metadata must never be removed from the files.

5. Other metadata should only be removed from files by agreement with their copyright holders.

Janie Boyd

Thank you Janie Boyd who this week resigned as one of the AIPP National Board Vice Presidents.

Janie Boyd was invited to become a co-opted board member several years ago after the board were so impressed with the amazing work she was doing on the Tasmanian Council. Janie was then voted in as a Vice President. In her time on the board Janie has worked closely with each state, helping them with their sponsorship package, as well as helping them to run successful events.

As well as her amazing attention to detail when it comes to looking after sponsors, Janie has been an invaluable support to both Alice Bennett and Robert Edwards during their terms as National President.

Janie Boyd has decided to step down from her role as Vice President of the AIPP due to family commitments.

The board will miss Janie’s opinions, ideas and good humour, although we know we will all see her smiling face at AIPP events across the country in the future.

We all wish Janie all the best for a long summer of wedding photography and playing with her Grand daughters.
Thank you Janie for all your hard work, dedication and friendship.

The Board of the AIPP.

Working Hard For You…Your AIPP as 2011 draws to a close…

Peter Myers — Mon, 28 Nov 2011 07:43:48 +0000

This short video, which was premiered at The Nikon AIPP Event, shows how YOUR AIPP is working hard for you, helping define “Professional Photography” and helping create the building blocks to distinguish AIPP Accredited members from “the rest”…

Most of the work in producing this video was done for free by AIPP member, Robert Hammond…because he believes in what the AIPP is doing, because he had the skills to help, and because he wanted to help…Thanks Rob!
