Captured HighNotes

The Future of Captured Highnotes & Maxine Thomas Photography

For those of you who have followed me for a while will be no stranger to my constant ongoing technical issues with computers and editing software and to some this future decision may not come as a surprise but to other it may.
Over the past week I have not only lost the use of my PC with my computer screen dying but when moving over to mostly work on my laptop, audio corruption issues have continued and blue screening has occurred whilst editing photos.
Due to the financial position I am in and other reasons that have occurred in life whilst taking on this dream of a job I wished to have, I have had to make the incredibly tough decision to quit my photography and videography business indefinitely. This has been my whole life for ten years and to even think about giving it up has been super hard and not a pathway I ever wanted to take.
I hope and wish that I can stay connected with all of the amazing people I have met through this job and one day return when I have the finances to put money into this business and have the appropriate equipment needed to make a full comeback and not have to make a decision like this again.
I will continue to post photos of any remaining projects I worked on this month but do not expect much action on either account after May.
I’m going to miss doing what I love so much and miss all of the amazing people I have gotten to work with in the last 4 years.
Please do not be a stranger 🧡

Thank you for your understanding,
Maxine Thomas

Over and out.

Skillet and These Four walls - Brisbane [Live Review] Skillet did not hold back! The energy is indescribable for just how much life this musical family of four brings to their performance.
