Wedding: Brendan & Keri

Keri and Brendan were married at Raven's Ait Island on a beautiful blue sky summer's day. Just a perfect wedding day!
Lots of congratulations to you two and I wish you many years of happiness and love together!

A big thank you to Casey who assisted me on the day (she also took the last image above, which is one of Keri's all time favourites). And of course a big thank you to the lovely team at Raven's Ait. I felt right at home and really hope to be back there again soon!

Wedding: James & Charlotte

I had a great time photographing Charlotte and James' pre-wedding portraits earlier this year, so it was with much excitement that I was looking forward to photographing their wedding. And it turned out to be one of the most perfect summer's days this year!
Remember the before photo from Charlotte and Jame's pre-wedding shoot a few months ago?
I loved how all the ladies hats were pegged to ribbons hanging from the sides of the marque.
I had such a wonderful time and loved photographing you two on the farm! Thank you so much for the opportunity. Wishing you many wonderful decades and centuries full of love xx

A big thank you too to both sets of parents for all the kindness shown to me. And also a big thank you to Leonette - my last minute driver and assistant on the day.

The lovely Christian and Cristina recently joined me for a walk in Regent's Park to photograph and get to know them a bit better before their big wedding in September. We had a lot of laughs and I'm so excited about their wedding! Can't wait.. counting sleeps with you two..

Seminar: Jerry Ghionis, Australian Master Photographer

I had the privilege of attending a seminar presented by Jerry Ghionis, voted one of the world’s top ten wedding photographers by American Photo Magazine, on Monday.

Jerry is such an inspirational photographer and I've been following his work for a couple of years now (I love his Pic Pockets - esp. the Ordinary to Extraordinary range: "Wedding photographers are often presented with less than desirable locations, confined spaces and challenging lighting situations. Jerry Ghionis is the master at turning the ordinary into the extraordinary.") and so was pleased to be able to see the master at work!
Here's one of my images inspired by some of his work: Spicer Hallfield hosted the seminar - click here for their article about the seminar, including a few images from the day.

It was lovely too to have a chance to catch up with some from the networking group as we've all had a busy couple of months. I'm really excited and looking forward to putting into practice some of the new techniques I've learnt from the seminar!

Wedding: Andy & Kim

Much congratulations to the lovely Kim and Andy who got married on Saturday at the Woodlands Park Hotel in Cobham. They met 15 years ago and have been engaged for 14 of those.. it was so special to see how they're still clearly very much in love and having fun together.
I hope you two had a wonderful day with your friends and family and it was all just as you'd dreamed of. Much love and happiness for the future! x

Thank You's
A very big thank you to Judy, James and his team at the Woodlands Park Hotel for taking such great care of me.
To Graham Dorward, the toast master for helping the day run so smoothly and helping me organise the guests for photos.
