Wedding: Tim + Kate

Posted by in Peppers Craigieburn - Bowral, Wedding

Back in November Tim and Kate had their gorgeous wedding. The girls got ready out at Pinn Cottages in Crookwell before we went to St Mary’s for their ceremony. They had their ceremony at St Mary’s as Tim’s family line has some history with the church and even has a stain glass window in the building. So where is Crookwell? About 30 minutes north-west of Goulburn, where mobile coverage is limited πŸ˜‰ Afterwards we headed over to Peppers Craigieburn in Bowral for their reception (read: party)

Hair: Megan – Visionary Hair
Makeup: Ethix Makeup
Flowers: Kate – Absolutely Flowers

I loved Kate’s details for the day and their Scottish touches.

Kate made a stunning bride:

Tim met Kate outside the church and then they walked down the aisle together behind the Scottish bag-piper…

emotions ran for the procession / ceremony…

then we stopped off on the way back from Crookwell to Bowral to get some safe photos just in case it was raining back at Bowral…

back at Craigienburn…

Kate from Absolutely Flowers did a stunning job with the flowers / table decorations..

Thanks for a gorgeous November wedding πŸ™‚
And yes I managed to make it home that night T & K!

workshops: Mini workshops in January / Feb

Posted by in Wedding

Just a quick heads up – I’m looking at running some introductory mini workshops in the coming months on; using video lights, shooting with reflectors and off-camera flash.

These will be short, practical workshops – in an afternoon. These workshops would suit professionals who are interested in using any of the mentioned in their work. I suspect classes will run from a venue in the gorgeous Southern Highlands. More details as I think it through some more.

Thanks!

Wedding: Amos + Amanda

Posted by in QVB Tea Rooms, Sydney Wedding, Wedding

Amos & Amanda of the previous paint fight e’session fame had their wedding recently! They had their beautiful ceremony at the chapel at Pymble Ladies College before heading over to the Tea Rooms at the QVB for their wedding reception. I went to high school with Amanda and Amos, Amanda in the same year as me, Amos above. They got together after we graduated in 2000 and the wedding marked their 10 year anniversary!

It was a really fun day – with lots of emotions. Thanks to Nattnee for coming also and taking some photos.

Amanda’s dad didn’t want to know anything about the wedding until the wedding day – so we were able to capture some very emotional reactions…

candy bar!!

Amanda did an incredible job at decorating the QVB…

a few photos around the Queen Victoria Building – QVB at night…

and then some crazybooth photos…

thanks guys for an incredible day!

Well here is the rest of Simon & Katie’s Melbourne E’session. We wandered around Melbourne University, then over to Carlton Gardens. After a lovely lunch at St Kilda we ended up at the beach. (PS. St Kilda – your Luna Park face is evil compared to ours!)

Thanks guys for a fun afternoon and the drinks at night!

luckily Simon had taken some hayfever meds before the shoot…

best way to clear a beach is to have it rain… then it was allllll ours!!
