I have never laughed so hard at a wedding in my life! And with a few hundred weddings under my belt these days, that’s saying something! These two and their families and friends had me in stitches, my stomach muscles were genuinely aching and I could not stop being so happy for them! One guest even said to me, “you…
This day it was pretty clear from the get go that nothing could come between these ladies and their ideal wedding. Clare and Lisa were 100% prepared to stand by one another through thick and thin no matter the hurdle. I arrived around noon and these two had been last minute organising and rushing around to ensure their vision would…
Oh my gosh! I’m just chilling here with these shots, re living the most fun of wedding days! ???I love this pair and all the incredible folks in their bridal party AND families! It’s no secret that I love a Brennan (and extensions of Brennans) do. You know it’s going to be a blast and that you’ll enjoy the company…
I’m planning on remembering Tom & Katrina exactly like this for the rest of their days… running through the long grass to catch the sunset, laughing in each others arms and laying on the lawn in the howling winds. Without any doubt in my mind I believe these two will have this much fun forever. They’re the best of friends…
Kyle and Jades surprise wedding at Brandy Creek Estate – Drouin East
Ahhh this day was awesome, gorgeous, super fun and perfectly relaxed! Megan & Mitchell planned the most stunning of gatherings with all their nearest and dearest oh so perfectly. The bride was breathtaking (as we all knew she would be), the weather was ideal and everyone who partook gave their utmost to bring this dream day to reality. Their celebrant,…
This wedding for me, will always be memorable. Often as a photographer, I get in a bit of a rhythm at a wedding ceremony. I know what happens next and how it will go, I watch for the moment the brides mum may choke up and I ensure I’m positioned for the rings, kiss and any special customs… but Monique…
Okay, here’s the reality; you’re freshly engaged & blissfully happy. Then suddenly someone asks when the big day is and you’re slugged in the chest with the realisation that getting married these days is not just lovey-dovey feelings, endless joy and the ultimate life commitment. Excuse my French when I say, there’s this tight dread occurring inside and all you…
I’ve had this same, rather odd experience, many times over the years. I catch up with a couple over coffee, they book my services for their wedding and then one or both turn to me and say, “what else should we ask you?”. It’s at this point that I relax back with them and tell them the story of how…
Rachel and Paul, you guys are an absolute legend couple and you have the most fantastic crew of family and friends. What a night, what a day, what a wedding. Some weddings make me realise all over again just how great this job is. Yesterday was one of those days. It was fun, beautiful and relaxed all at once and…
Last weekend I had the pleasure of photographing Tara and Jason’s wedding. It was a fabulous day at the much loved Parnassus, decorated beautifully and with lawn games galore, it was set to be a day enjoyed by all. But throughout the proceedings what really struck me was the inspiring uniqueness of every member in this incredible family. Wow! I…
Laura & Josh, Robyn & John, and now Kelsi & Steven. I’m so thrilled to have been privileged enough to have photographed all 3 of these legend sisters weddings. The majority of weddings are sweet and fun in their own way, its always touching and often amusing, but the real secret to successfully having a blast while working at a…
After almost 500 weddings I can admit there have been times where the ‘industry’ gets me down. I’ve had my fair share of cynical moments when I see weddings become a family fight or a source of incredible frustration and stress for a bride and groom. Couples can loose sight of the why they are getting married, and focus solely…
They say rain is a sign of luck on the wedding day, they also say laughter is the most effective tool for relationship conflict resolution, but most importantly of all they say that knowing your partner at their best and worst and loving them not despite, but for their shortcomings, is the greatest asset of all. On Saturday Chris and…
There’s something indescribably beautiful about high school sweet heart weddings. Their history and their growth as a couple, over so many years, is cemented in all they do. The way they look at each other, mesh together naturally, accept every flaw and gratefully love and appreciate every strength imaginable in each other. Jess and Aaron were the perfect example of…
What a special day for such an awesome couple! Ash & James are that couple that are always fun, and are always keeping it real, so I was over the moon to be a part of this wedding day. I knew Ash would have the day planned stunningly! As a wedding vendor her self, she chose people we loved working…
What a fun day, with a legend group of people! Sarah and Jake had an absolutely STUNNING wedding day at Yarra Ranges Estate. Not just because the weather was perfect, the venue was beautiful or the bride looked incredible. But because of the immense amount of effort the two of them put in to ensuring their wedding was a class…
A perfect day in the country. Christopher and Elise were an ease to deal with from the first evening we met. Having been together since their teenage years, they knew each others ideals and were striving towards them for their wedding day. They deserved to have the most gorgeous of days for their wedding, which is exactly what they got. They were married at…
Naturally stunning! Cassandra and Simon’s wedding was exactly that. It wasn’t overdone, or stress filled. They weren’t there to focus on every other detail that day… just each other and the commitment they were making together. From the time she booked I knew Cassandra would be organised and prepared for this moment so I wasn’t surprised that everything ran so smoothly,…
Hawaii sea breeze, a stellar display of heartwarming flowers, sunshine and loved ones, both family and lifelong friends. Welcome to the wedding of Grant Fielder and Jess Brennan. A day that will, undoubtedly be forever special to everyone lucky enough to see these two, best of friends, have the wedding so many dream of. I know what you’re thinking, “It’s…
