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
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
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
Rachel and Daniel were married in front of close family and friends at Kingdom Hall with a stylish Fenix wedding reception. Rachel’s family all flew in from Perth for the wedding. With her brother and two sisters, nieces and nephews, mum and dad, it was on for young and old when I entered her room at the Royce Hotel. Mum and her sisters helped Rachel get into her gorgeous Raffaele Ciuca dress with her Benjamin Adams shoes brou
Alison & Owen’s Fenix wedding went a little something like this… Perfect cloudy day for photography when I arrived at the Hotel Lindrum. Heading up to their honeymoon suite, I bumped into Alison’s parents Peter & Jocelyn, in the corridor. We found Alison with her arms wrapped around Owen, as the excitement of the day was building. With their last kiss before becoming husband and wife, mum and dad swept her ba
I stumbled upon an amazing images form Emma and Matt’s wedding at the Royal Botanic Gardens Melbourne and had to share their story. I had previously photographed Emma’s gorgeous sister Melissa’s classical wedding at the Royal Botanical Gardens and jumped at the chance to do it all again. Matt and the boys got ready in a Spanish style villa in St Kilda while Emma and the girls got ready at the contemporary Prince of
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
For me, creative wedding photography has always focused on a photojournalistic style, to tell the narrative of the day, during the preparation, ceremony and reception. It’s at the location photo session where a more artistic element is added to offer my couples something truly unique. New photographic ideas are always drawn in my visual diary and sourced from paintings, videos, sculptures or any other form of creative expressi
Jane and Daniels wedding at St Michael’s went a little like this. It seemed that the rain wasn’t going to let up but with beautiful defused light and wet weather gear packed, all bases where covered. Daniel’s mesmerising smile, that Jane fell in love with, greeted me when I arrived at his parent’s home. The boys were getting a little cheeky dishing it out to the groom as they got ready. Daniel’s mum Sri
