Album: Matt + Jess
Naomi has been super busy pumping out wedding albums for our clients and new ones for our studio samples. Just between you and me, I think we’ve made Queensberry pretty happy in the past few months 🙂
The below album is one Naomi created from Matt and Jess’ recent wollongong wedding. The album was created with a photo-front, in classic black leather and using the Queensberry DUO format. (both matted and digital pages)

























if you own one of our Queensberrys make sure you join the ‘I own a Queenberry’ group on facebook :))
Read MoreHappy 21st Louise!
Kenney of Glen & Leila wedding fame contacted me months ago to see if I was available to run a crazybooth for the 21st party of his sister, Louise. Louise had a 1950’s theme for her party (think Mad Men, Grease etc) which looked awesome!
The day of the party also marked the 3 year anniversary of Louise and her boyfriend, Brendan, so I did a short photoshoot just before the party started with them all dressed up…

so easy to photograph… :))



I love these sun-flare ones…




the tourist information centre in Campbelltown made a fitting background :))




then onto the party!




the crazybooth photos can be viewed here.
Happy birthday Louise! Thanks for letting me be a part of your fun fun party!!

Read Moreworkshops: Spend a day with Jonathan
— sorry for double post — stickying it to the top of the blog.
Back in February I blogged about running some workshops for lighting. We had an overwhelming response to our preliminary questionnaire – including people overseas and many interstate.
Naomi and I racked our brains to create a format which would benefit the workshopee the most and decided on running direct 1 on 1 workshops. We decided to do it this way so we could really rock out and give you the attention and tuition you deserved. Here’s how they will roll…
1 day technical workshop –
For one day you will receive the personal and undivided attention of myself to learn whatever photographic technique you would love to know more about. This could include, video-light, off-camera flash, modifying natural light, my post-processing techniques… etc. (as long as I know about it, we can go through it together)
This won’t be a business coaching, pep-talky day with me, we will get into the gritty techniques I use to create my images.
The usual format of the day will run from 10am to 8pm and will include around 6 hours with a live model (if required) to learn-on-the-job. You have full access to my extensive equipment for the day.
1 day Bridal shoot –
Everyone that signs up for a 1day will be eligible to attend a special bridal-shoot I will host for a small group of people.
The first scheduled shoot will be on Friday the 20th of August and a second one on Saturday the 21st of August.
We are planning to have this shoot at the gorgeous Summerlees Cottages in Sutton Forest (in the Southern Highlands). We will have 2 models in wedding gowns, with some stunning theming by an event specialist. The groups will be between 4 and 6 people, giving the opportunity to put what you’ve learned into practice with the encouragement and feedback of myself as we go. This won’t be a watch-me-shoot, you will be doing most of the photography with some guidance from me as I stand beside you. This day will run from 12 midday to around 7pm, after the sun has set. Images you create on this day can be used in your portfolio.
Investment – the 1 day and access to the bridalshoot is $1100.
We have a payment plan available if required (50%Â and fortnightly creditcard payments therafter)
My availability will be for select weekends and most weekdays between now and the dates listed for the first bridal-shoot above. If you are interested, email info at vibrantphotography.com.au or visit my contact page and send me your details. After we receive your email we will chat about what you want to learn and create an individual itinery for the 1 on 1 day we spend together. We will find a date that best works for you.
If you are interstate / overseas, we can have a chat about how we can make this format also work for you.
here’s an image that was taken at Summerlee’s when I shot a bridal with Jenny Sun last December…
