The Mini Supermodel Mini Photo-shoot

Balmain Art & Craft Show at Father John Therry.

The Photo Studio was delighted to be part of the Balmain Art & Craft Show activities last November. Now in its 13 th year, the show has become a popular fixture on the arts calendar in the inner west. For the first time, this year we set up an out-door portrait studio in the Kid’s Activity Area. For a small contribution, kids were invited to be photographed by leading advertising and people/portrait photographer North Sullivan. He and his crew treated the children to a fun and entertaining session that was every bit the real thing, only smaller. Parents looked on with amusement as North wove his magic and brought a smile and a giggle to the face of even the most reluctant star.

The images were then brought up on computer screens and the parents and subjects got to view the 20 to 30 shots then and there and to choose their favourite. The images were later given The Photo Studio magic with special enhancing and retouching tricks to make every portrait truly shine. Each session included a beautifully handcrafted archival fine-art mini-print.

The photographs made wonderful Christmas presents for Grandparents and friends, while others were destined to take pride of place on the family mantelpiece. Everyone had a fabulous time, especially the kids and best of all, the portrait project contributed nicely to the weekend’s charity fundraising.

Thanks to all the hard working volunteers from the parent community at Father John Therry School. A special thanks to Kendra and Cathy for their fabulous support.

We’re all looking forward eagerly to doing it again this year.
