I & V 'finally' get married

I was one of many honoured guests to be invited to this wedding.

The day couldn't have been more perfect, the weather was perfect, the church setting was perfect, the reception venue was perfect and of course the perfect couple was about to be married.
I & V where married at HMAS Watson, Sydney with the 'after party' at L'Aqua, Darling Harbour.
The amazing Kate from Cass Creations was I & V's official photographer for the day.

 

I know for a fact you too are in the air, over an ocean somewhere (cause i dropped you off at the airport)
Have an awesome time in London and have fun where ever your travels take you, and i can't wait to have a glass of wine and listen to all the crazy things you did in 2010

D & B are Married - ACT

D & B wedding was amazing, held at the Kamberra Winey, ACT it was enriched with some family traditions as well as some D & B personal touches.

D had told me when we first met that she was going to wear her grandmothers wedding dress, for some reason i envisioned lace and loads of it, but when i arrived at her house to take some 'getting ready' photos, to my surprise (and delight) i was met with a stunning vintage wedding dress with not a trace of lace (that is worth quite a lot of money now D mother tells me)
The Wedding dress has some real family history about it, D's grandmother wore it, D's mother wore it and now it was time for D to wear it.


Just to take a few steps back, B proposed to D whilst holidaying in France at the top of the Eiffel Tower! (how romantic is that!) and now it had come time for D to marry that true romantic.


D had always been so cool and calm about her wedding day and it wasn't until she was about to walk down the isle that i first saw her start to panic. With a few words from dad, a strong arm to hold onto and a couple of deep breaths D made her way down the isle to marry her best friend.


D & B you really are a wonderful couple, i know you are more then likely sitting back sipping cocktails by the pool in Queensland at the moment but i just wanted to wish you all the very best for today, tomorrow and the future.
Your photos have been posted and will be awaiting your arrival home from your honeymoon. xx

I LOVE....

Nothing more then opening up an email from a past client showing me this:



It really does give me goose bumps to know that my work is being hung up on walls all over Sydney *blush*

Thank you L, your my 'I LOVE' this week ;0)

Little Miss A Baptism

The lead up in weather had not been promising at all, raining (ok i mean pouring) on and off all Saturday, and despite waking to blue skies on the Sunday, those dam grey rain clouds blew over, but as luck would have it they blew out as quickly as they blew in.

It was such an amazing day, one that i am very honoured to have been apart of. As Glenn was given the most important task one friend could ask of another that being; to be their child's godparent. This left me with the second and third most important tasks: photographing the Baptism and looking after L! LOL


It was all going rather well, i was getting my groove on right when L decided that in the middle of M's speech, he would take a jolly big tumble off the back church pew and landed with his top tooth through his bottom lip! As he stood up, i took one look into his little brown eyes and as tears started to drop total credit to his little sole he didn't mutter a scream.
So as you can imagine i had the camera in one hand trying to carry on photographing the Baptism all the while trying to help stop the blood pouring out of my sons lower lip. No easy task. In the end it all ended well with his lip drying out just before little miss A was baptised and i was able to carry on.


R & N, you are amazing parents and should be so proud of that little angle you have created, she really is something special.


Your CD of photos will be posted by weeks end, Thank you again xxoo

He Did It!!

For months now i have been trying to teach my (almost 3) monkey how to draw faces, arms and legs and for months all i have received is hard scratchy scribbles. Now don't get me wrong i love the scribble pictures but not love love them if you know what i mean.

So last night when Liam showed me what he was up to at his desk i was in total shock! He (for the VERY first time) drew a face with arms and legs, but no, not just any face it was a bunny rabbit! also sporting a carrot to-boot!

Here are some pic's of his master piece!

For those struggling to work it out here is the run down:

Rabbit ears up the top, large circle is the body with a nose inside that, you then have two faint arms off to the left and right and two strong legs with feet down the bottom.

And lastly to the right of the Rabbit that would be his/hers carrot....... of course!
