I am really excited to re-launch my photography business Jo Nelson Photography- as a Photographer in the Forster area! Welcome to my blog! I’m now based in Hallidays Point which is near Forster, on the Mid North Coast in NSW. This is where my family and I have relocated, after traveling during 2015.
“Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue” so the saying goes.
Could we be off to a good start here? Sure, it’s a wedding saying- but I couldn’t help but notice that it fits (I suppose being in the wedding industry, you can’t help but think of wedding sayings!)…
New… After spending last year traveling around Australia with my family, it’s exciting to have settled in a new area here at Hallidays Point, 20 minutes from Forster. ready to start something new… wedding and portrait photography in a new location, with a new name.
Old… But of course it’s certainly not new all together, this photography thing that I do. I surprised myself when I realised that I have been working in photography for about ten years now! I have enjoyed the many years working in the Newcastle and Lake Macquarie region. So I’m actually continuing something that is an old love of mine.
Borrowed… When I was trying to picture my business here in our newly found home locale, it simply felt right that my business should borrow my name, because this is the kind of community where people get to know each others names… and so, ‘Jo Nelson Photography’ was born.
Blue… Ok, so there is blue in my logo, but I call it teal. That one is simple hey.
I’m actually not superstitious at all- but I do love weddings, and at least that helped to kick things off! So now I’ll keep explaining what’s happening here at Jo Nelson Photography.
Now that we have settled at Hallidays Point, the caravan is away…
I’m really excited to have moved to such a gorgeous coastal location, and we are also surrounded by many other beautiful locations that I’m looking forward to exploring as I photograph weddings and portraits.
I am completely spoilt in being able to experience so many amazing locations around Australia with my family last year. It was a brilliant adventure- and part of my philosophy to live life to the full. We formed so many great friendships on the road. And have so many memories etched in our minds of moments together where we felt the awe, laughter, tranquility, challenges and joy of our surroundings and time together. Relationships are so important and that’s why I love what I do- photographing people and their connection with each other, and so I’m looking forward to the future as a wedding and portrait photographer in Forster.
I’m currently working on being part of a few local upcoming bridal expo’s around Forster and Taree- so more to come on this in the near future.
I look forward to sharing with my blog followers many of the lovely people and places that I photograph. I hope that you will follow along and join me on this new adventure of mine around lovely Forster.
In the meantime- why don’t you have a look around my lovely new website! Start with my portfolio to look through some of my favourite images that I’ve put together.
