I always love a Butleigh Wootton wedding, and Lily and Jason’s unique day was no exception. Jason and the boys rolled up in the morning with a box filled with photo booth goodies including props, Polaroid camera, and a corkboard to pin all their guest’s photos as their day unfolded. Lily was getting ready in the master bedroom, upstairs at Butleigh Wootton. Her warm smile set the scene for the day, as she climbed the grand sta
Kathleen and Jason had their wedding at Immaculate Conception Catholic Church with a very stylish reception at Butleigh Wootton. They all flew down a few days before from Queensland. Jason and the boys were very relaxed and having a few laughs when I arrived. His best man David was looked for cufflinks on line as he misplaced his own. The boys had gone Go Kart racing the day before, and yes Jason won. Rumours floated around th
Maryse and Jude’s stylish Luminare wedding was such a relaxed, fun and heartfelt event. A lot of attention was put into every detail of their Sri Lankan wedding, especially the theming at Luminare. There seemed to be a little devine intervention regarding the story of how Maryse & Jude met. Maryse’s mother had found a pray card at the church they attended and started praying for her daughter to find a “go
Teena and Howie held their classical wedding ceremony and reception at the grand Butleigh Wootton. They had spent several years living in Hawthorn, after moving from Canada, and wanted me to capture the cobble stone lane ways and cafés that reminded them of why they loved this historic suburb. Met up with Howie and his groomsmen, as they got ready at the Quest Apartments. After a quick Google on how to tie a bow-tie, we moved
On an overcast windy day, Sarah and Tim had their wedding at St Augustine’s Parish in Melbourne with their reception at Fenix. It felt like I was capturing a close friends wedding story in Melbourne with Sarah and Tim. Each time we caught up we would share our travel stories, along with the food we loved, only to realise that we better start talking about the actual wedding itself. Their love for fine wine had us drop into the
There are times when someone see an amazing image and tells the photographer, that their camera really takes great photos. Thought I’ll test this theory to see if it’s the type of camera used, or a photographer’s knowledge and years of experience in lighting, composition and exposure, that creates an amazing image. Set up a controlled experiment in the studio where, lighting, background, subject matter (me, yes not that exciti
Documenting Lauren and Andrew Sunbury Wedding at Our Lady Mt Carmel Church started with a relaxing drive to their home with planes flying overhead as I passed the airport. Photography was a very important element to the natural way they wanted their story told. It was very candid approach with the boy’s eager to light up their cigars and pour the scotch once the suits were on. Meanwhile, Lauren and the girls were relaxed, with
Sarah and Jason had their timeless wedding at Genazzano FCJ chapel followed by their reception at Fenix. The families were all very close, with an extra bit of Latino love thrown in with Jason’s Argentinean heritage. Jason’s dad Carlos kept the laughs flowing around the room as he helped the boys get into their suits. At times, there was a little competition as to who could out do the other. Now I couldn’t bring Carlos with m
Caught up with the ever so gorgeous Maryse and stylish Jude for their pre wedding engagement shoot. Love engagement sessions as they give me the opportunity to know my couples a little better, have a few laughs, and get a clearer understanding of how they would like their wedding story captured on the day. This amazing couple is having their wedding at St Mary Star of the Sea with the reception at the grand Luminare with its p
I couldn’t have been happier than when Anna and Andrew booked my services for their wedding at the Brighton International. From the start I knew this was going to be an extraordinarily special occasion. They really wanted their day captured exactly as it happened without being made to feel self-conscious. My reportage approach to wedding photography was exactly what they wanted. An amazing sunny day, when I rolled up to Andre
