day 2

                                                              Influences
  As a child Geddes was fascinated with the Gumnut Babies by May gibbs and those images influenced Geddes photography. Her first job in New Zealand led her to fall in love with photography. She had to put  Photography  hold because she went  through "normal" jobs.   She went back to photography in the early 1980s.In 1986 Geddes began in her current style when she became familiar with studios in hong kong  where she self taught and took pictures
 of neighbors and friends . she was influenced to take pictures of babies because she adores them and thinks they represent the future and hope, she thinks of Them as brand-new citizens of the world, with no notions of hatred, racial bias, or religious intolerance. Since the day she picked up her camera she wanted to make her studio a child friendly zone.
