Happy Holidays!

After a couple of months hiatus while moving to the other side of the globe, rsgphotog.blogspot.com is officially back up and running, with a couple of changes.

All photo orders will now be limited to digital files sent through email, unless by special request.

By using this format, there is no need for expensive postage costs, and you guys have more control and creativity over how you can get your images printed, and how many times you can print them!

I’ve made the payment process a lot easier now as well by introducing the paypal option. Payments can be made instantly using your credit card in either New Zealand or Canadian currency. Click here to view the updated price list.

Paypal payments are received instantly, so you can order photos right up until the 24th and still receive them by Christmas, nice!

The entire photo catalogue from both 2008 and 2009 seasons are still available. Email jessicahmatthew@gmail.com for questions, queries and orders.

:)

5 MORE DAYS LEFT TO ORDER PHOTOS!!

ALL PAYMENTS FOR PHOTO ORDERS MUST BE RECEIVED BY SEPTEMBER 8TH.

IF YOU’VE MADE AN ORDER AND RECEIVED YOUR INVOICE, PLEASE MAKE YOUR PAYMENTS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

ANY QUESTIONS OR QUERIES PLEASE EMAIL ME

Shore Championships August 2009

And the last one’s done! Thanks so much to all of the organizers over the weekend, especially Margaret for getting my little podium (aka island of paradise) sorted. Had a great view point for all sessions and I think the photos turned out great.

Click on the links below (eg, Level 4&5 Clubs) to view photos from each session. If you would like to see more of a particular gymnast, send an email to jessicahmatthew@gmail.com with an index number (e.g, 1357SUN) of a posted photo of the gymnast you are interested in seeing more photos of (located under large photo image in small print). I will send you small photos like the ones on this site that you can browse through.

And thanks heaps for all the well wishes! :)  :)

The Shore Rhythmic Championships held this weekend will be the last event I'll cover for the 2009 season and beyond.

In mid September I'll be leaving for Canada to continue my studies at Art College.

I will endeavour to keep the photo website up and running and all images will still be available through digital file email orders.

So now is your last chance to order photo prints of your gymnast at a great price without international postage costs!

Thanks so much for your custom and support over the last year and a half, it was a pleasure to meet you all, whether through emails or in person :)

See you at Shore Champs!

Kind Regards;

Just a few notes - Thanks to Tracey Redhead for letting me come and take photos. Once again I had a lot of fun at Counties and it was good seeing everyone. The nachos were as delicious as they've always been. About the technical stuff - I found the lighting in the gym to be really good and I think the white balance in my photos is a lot better than in the past. I'm also glad I sprung for a new 8gb memory card before the competition because I literally have photos coming out of my ears. Enjoy!

Shore Rhythmics Invitational April '08

I have separated the photos from this competition into several different links below, in the order which the competition ran. I have a lot of photos from Sunday, too many to post on this website, so I have selected two photos from each routine to be displayed here. If you want to see more photos that are for sale of a particular gymnast/s, email jessicahmatthew@gmail.com with the name of the gymnast and what level she (or he*) competed in. I will send you small photos like the ones on this site that you can browse through.

For information on how to purchase photos, refer to the post titled How To Order Photos, which is linked somewhere in the right column of this page >>>

Just a few notes from this competition - - It was the first time for me using the lens I used on my camera and I really like the results (135mm f2). The blue wall behind the carpet made for a good backdrop too so I think I have a good batch of photos from this comp. The day ran pretty smoothly from what I could tell and it was great catching up with those of you I'd not seen for a while. So all in all it was a pretty good day :) hope you enjoyed it as much as I did.
