Michelle & Julian’s Sydney wedding at Catalina’s

I was looking through my archives and could not believe I had not yet blogged Michelle & Julian’s wedding!

It was stunning and Michell & Julian were great to work with, coupled with incredible skies and locations I was a very happy photographer indeed.

Michelle’s look was created by Susan Markovic from Make Up Mode and Leearna Zammit from Upstyle Girl, whilst her incredible bouquet and all the reception flowers were by Milly Blooms.

Michelle & Julian chose to have a ‘first look’ to enable them to move from their ceremony straight to the party with their guests – an idea which I love.

Their location photos were taken at a private property and we them moved onto Catalina’s for the ceremony & reception. Just missing a dramatic storm meant we could hold the ceremony on the balcony with a great backdrop of blue clouds.

I had a lot of fun at the end of the night finishing off the film of the left over disposable cameras … hopefully there were a few surprise photos in there from me !

Angie & Nick’s wedding at Moby Dicks Whale Beach

Angie & Nick’s wedding was a much anticipated event, long in the planning all done by the gorgeous bride herself ! Most of their guests were coming up from Melbourne for the weekend as that is where Angie & Nick are from, so they had friends dotted all around whale beach for a few days. I believe there was a spectacular after party and pool party ‘recovery’ the following day.

Angie’s vision for the day was really unique and totally ‘her’ personal style. Angie is a stylist herself and make all the decorations – what a talent ! I adored her Jenny Packham gown and stunning flower crown from Wild Lotus. As you can see it was quite a windy day -but this only added to the drama and excitement of the ceremony and did make for some great expressions.

This was my first time at Moby Dicks and boy was I impressed ! The food was incredible and I loved how it was served as a banquet rather than individual plates. The view is of course perfect for a beach lover and although you can add your own special touches to the venue – it is quite spectacular just as it is.

Enjoy!

With love,

Samantha & Jake’s wedding at Curzon Hall

Samantha and Jake’s flawless day started for me at the Peir One. I love shooting there because the colour scheme is neutral and white which goes with any bridal party. It’s always nice to be on the harbour as well of course !

Their ceremony was in a new spot for me at Curzon Hall in the back called the Eternal Garden – very private and lovely. Samantha’s bridesmaids were in cute purpley pinkish 50’s inspired outfits (Bridesmaids Only) that really popped against all the green colour in the venue.

It was a pretty serious party and I know because I was there till the end ! Dancing dancing and laughing was all I saw for the last 2 hours of the night.

Enjoy these pictures from their special day.

Akemi & Phil’s wedding at Vaucluse House & Neilson Park

Beautiful Akemi in her Adam Dixon gown was simply radiant the day she married her long time sweetheart Phil.

They found me via Vaucluse House Tearooms where I am proudly a preferred supplier and have been for many years. It really is a perfect spot for your ceremony and reception. There is something relaxed about days where couples have their ceremony, location photos and reception all in the one place. There is no where to drive, get stuck in traffic or find it hard to park – it’s all there and very private despite being a public space.

We did head off for a short amount of time around the corner to Nielson Park – just the two of them.

Enjoy the shots from what was a spectacular day.
