one fine day photography bio picture

welcome to one fine day photography

Hey! My name is Luke Arms, and I'm the guy who takes the photos around here. Welcome!

I'm a documentary wedding and on-location portrait photographer based in Newcastle, Australia. Most of the weddings I cover are in the Hunter Valley, the Central Coast or Sydney, but I'm also available to photograph a handful of national and international destination weddings each year.

This blog is the story of my amazing family and my wonderful clients. If you like what you see, please leave a comment or two. Better yet, say hi and get some of your own photo lovin'!

If you're looking for photos, prices, or just more info, check out the menu above.

Enjoy!

climbing … [photo of the day]

The blog has been a bit quiet this week. Sorry. I have been getting lots done, though. Promise!

Here’s a random photo I took yesterday. More to come soon!

totally rad’s lightroom presets … [workshop wednesday]

It’s workshop wednesday again. My, how time flies! I was planning to walk you through how I create my black and whites, but:

  1. I have too much post production to get through today.
  2. It’s my mum’s birthday, so I can’t work back tonight. (Not that I’m a big fan of working back anyway.)
  3. Doug Boutwell from Get Totally Rad released a new set of Lightroom presets last night. I’ve been busy checking them out.
  4. Bobby Earle has already posted a before and after using a beta of the presets. It’s worthy of the time you were planning to spend reading my post production post. ;)

Incidentally, I haven’t bought the presets yet. I’m not sure if I will, either … they look awesome, but I’m pretty happy with my own Lightroom presets at the moment. I’ll let you know. Either way, if you’re a Lightroom user, you should totally check them out. All the Totally Rad action sets and presets are well worth the cost.

I’ll do my black and white post next week!

act natural … [humour]

Another funny from What The Duck :D

Sorry there wasn’t a twitter tuesday post today. Too busy. But you can get your own fix easily enough :)

ainslie and rohan … part 4 … [hunter valley wedding]

There was a vampire groom, a sing-a-long, a wombat tossing, and a whole lot more …

Enjoy :)
