What an honour and a pleasure it was to photograph Dunedin's latest and greatest acoustic duo... Ruby Two Shoes!! Exceptional musicians, exceptional people. And an exceptionally hilarious and unique shoot.
Kristy and Reuben - not lovers, not siblings... just friends. Putting that out there straight away. Doing their thing, and doing it very well. These guys are very good friends of mine, and I am preeeeetty sure they are going to be very famous one day... so just remember that you saw them here first.
I stole their album name from their facebook page for the title of this blog... because a) I was too lazy to think of my own witty title, and b) it sums these two up perfectly. You will find them gigging at bars, weddings and private functions... playing and singing sweet, sweet melodies and covers that you will LOVE... and definitely having a good time while they are at it.

Introducing RUBY TWO SHOES....
We were after something vintagey, something indie, something quirky. I think we got it. Good old fashioned fun!
My beautiful friends... just horsing around. Ha.
This photo makes me giggle. It's ridiculous... just like them.
Kristy's beautiful voice is quite mesmerizing - it is so easy to listen to and get lost in. I have always wanted to sing like she can. After twenty years of awesomely close friendship with her, I'm just starting to come to terms with the fact that I will just never be able to... she has something incredibly unique... and unfortunately it hasn't rubbed off on me yet. Sigh. I do get to listen to her sing though! And that makes my heart very happy.
Come to think of it, Reuben's incredible guitar skills are yet to rub off on me too... not giving up hope that that still might happen...
Go to one of their gigs, and you may even be privy to some sweet dance moves...
Not only are they talented musicians, they make pretty good trees too.
Rocking the 'moss-stach' - one of my fav photos from the shoot!
Seriously, get behind these guys - they are awesomely talented, and I am so proud of them! Hurry along now - go like them on facebook, hire them for your next function, or check out their next gig in town! You most certainly won't regret it. In fact, you might just find yourself LOVING it.
