A special country wedding

You know I get excited about all my weddings. When I say “my” weddings, I actually mean those people that have chosen me to capture their day. So I was very excited about this wedding, because this couple were amongst my very first clients. Over the years I have gotten to know them and adore them and their family. I was looking forward to meeting Fiona’s Nana-as I felt through Fiona I knew her a bit. Sadly she passed away before the wedding took place.  She was very much honored, along with Jason’s grandmother throughout the day.
Anyway I know you really want some images….so here we go.

Getting ready at Essential Body Basics thank you so much everyone for having me there. Fiona’s hair was done by Amber.

Fiona had OPI nail gel applied, and her make up done there also. Beautiful.

After taking a few images of the boys (in the rain) it was time to get moving to the location. Which was beautiful and very special, as it was Fiona’s Nana’s property.

And some random images from the day- filled with love, family, celebration, sunshine, rain followed again by sunshine- and a couple doing things their own way- which I just love. Yes there was yelping, a fire, coloured paper laterns, fun colours, glorious setting, whacky wigs, props, marracas, dancing, laughter, a rainbow and it was all pretty darn glorious:)

Engagement Session:

Well I am being a bit secretive! Yesterday I had the great pleasure of photographing these two love birds (again!) Actually they were amongst my very first clients and they quickly became dear friends- so when Fiona approached me to photograph her wedding later in the year I was beyond excited-and touched.

So although we had a colour full session around Docklands area- I am posting only two engagement photographs – as they have elected my wedding package where I design a custom guest book from their session- and I don’t want to spoil it for all their guests. I do promise to share the book after the wedding.

 

Meet the gorgeous Fiona

Am looking forward to the wedding of these special people. I promise I will post the engagement session- which was actually full of colour and Fiona pulling funny faces!:)

 

 

YarraValley Photography: Chocolate

Well anyone that knows me, or even follows me on social media (facebook, twitter or instagram) will know I love chocolate, but not just any chocolate. It has to be dark high quality and…sorry drifted off there dreaming about being lowered into a vat of melted dark chocolate. A story for another time. Those of you that know me also will know that I have various other “offices” which also involve chocolate.

So as this is my first post for 2013 I figured that I’d start it with a self indulgent post:)Hey it’s my blog I can do what I like! New Years Day quite by “accident” I went to Yarra Valley Chocolaterie and Ice Creamery   and right then and there I made it into my office:)

Well we went there yesterday again- for business planning purposes you understand!

 

Limited edition special blocks- featuring local scenes- love them!

If anyone is having a wedding in the area I am your woman!

Also this frog created entirely out of chocolate by Dimitri is looking for a name so if you have a good one please let them know on their facebook page! (Tell them the choc mad photographer sent you!)

 

Bundoora Wedding Photographer: Katie and Damien

My problem (and I have many hahah!) is that sometimes it is extremely difficult to choose which photographs to blog of weddings. I used to tell a bit of the wedding story- so the pictures would follow in a story sequence. I loved Katie and Damien’s wedding precisely because it reflected them and their personalities. So this time I’m just going to share some photographs from the day- without explaining them or necessarily putting in order.
