Maggie and Tony met in Melbourne while studying at university. With all their fond memories and love for this city, they called me from Hong Kong and arranged a pre wedding photoshoot with Melbourne’s classical architecture as their backdrop. The misty rain had stopped, providing some beautiful filtered light for photos around the regal Trinity College. Then it was off to the Paris end of Collins Street, Old Treasury Building 

There is something very regal about Louis the French Poodle when Antoinette brought him in to the studio.  I’m sure he was sussing me out with some of the looks he gave and had no problem being infront of the camera.

There are times when the story just unfolds in front of the camera, and your creative spirit runs wild with ideas.  You could feel the warmth and close bond of Merisha’s family, when I arrived at the Captain Treat Victorian Terrace in Williamstown, to capture all the laughter and excitement as the girls were getting ready.

Then the icing on the cake came when Kr

Two of the most huggable Maltese dogs came into the studio for their photo session. If I invited my Dog Maximus, who is also a Maltese,  then we would have had the start of the Roman Forum. In this case it would have to be based in Malta.

It was a bit of an international affair with Paul and Karen’s family flying in from the UK and New Zealand for the big day. Karen looked amazing in her Spurling wedding dress and Wittner shoes. Then again Paul scrubbed up pretty well in his Ted Baker suit. Their ceremony was held inside the grand Victorian Terrace at Church364. With the gorgeous afternoon light we headed off to the Abbotsford Convent for photos with its old Eu
