We had the pleasure of photographing the wedding of Damien and Katrina on Saturday 26 June 2010.

We’ve known that happy couple for many many years and they decided to hold their ceremony and reception at Ferns Hideaway in Byfield. This is a lovely little country retreat around 40min drive from Yeppoon in Central Qld.

Damien and Katrina both spent the morning in their own little cabins at Ferns and we arrived around lunch time to find a very calm Damien. He was wandering about the grounds making sure that everything was ready for his bride to be and we even had to give him a little nudge to head to his cabin so that we could take some photos of the boys getting ready.

Katrina was a fantastic bride and was super organised. We just love brides that give us a detailed list of what they want…makes our job that much easier!

The girls were pretty much ready when we arrived to start on their preperation photos so we were able to focus on getting Katrina into that gorgeous dress.

After the happy couple had said their i-do’s and we’d photographed the very important family photos, we headed off to take some bridal party shots at a few locations which Katrina had picked out. We had a great time photographing the location pics and Katrina had a great idea of incorporating sparklers, which was stacks of fun. We even had Tina and the groomsmen running circles around the couple, which was hilarious.

We’d like to thank Katrina and Damien for allow us to capture their special day and we hope you enjoy the sneak peak below.

 

A few weeks ago we had a fun filled afternoon photographing some engagement shots with Sarah and Tim and Friday 11 June 2010 finally saw the arrival of their big day.

We arrived at Sarah’s house around 12 noon to find a very cool, calm and collected bride to be. Sarah was totally excited and couldn’t believe that she was about to marry Tim. We spent about 1.5 hrs with the girls while they were glamming it up and Sarah looked absolutely stunning in her gorgeous wedding dress. Of course the bridesmaids looked smashing too but hey, no one can out do a bride!

As always, I gave Sarah a last minute pep talk on what to do when she arrived at the ceremony location and the very last thing Sarah said to me was “please tell Tim I love him” – too cute

Sarah and Tim decided to hold their wedding at Walk About Creek and we arrived to a warm welcome from Tim and his Groomsmen who were greeting their guests as they arrived. I’m sure Tim got a kick out of me passing on the “Sarah loves you” message.

Gosh, were to start with an explanation of their ceremony…..

I have to say that Sarah and Tim had one of the most special ceremonies that we’ve had the pleasure of photographing. They were both so emotional throughout the entire ceremony and Tim was in tears even before his gorgeous bride had made her way down the isle – don’t know what it is but seeing a groom cry as his bride makes her way to take his hand is just so beautiful.

Sarah and Tim even wrote their own vows which was very sweet. There probably aren’t the words to explain how special their ceremony was so we’ll let the photos do the talking….they certainly speak a thousand words.

After the group/family shots were taken, we made a quick dash up to Jolly’s lookout to capture some location photos. It was a really great spot for photos with a gorgeous backdrop overlooking the Samford Valley.

We had a fantastic time photographing Sarah and Tim’s wedding and we hope you enjoy the sneak peak at their images below.

On a special note to Sarah and Tim – Guys, we wish you all the very very best in your married life together and we hope that all of your dreams are realised. Thanks again for allowing us the honor of being part of your wedding day.

We had the pleasure of photographing the wedding of Peta and Abs on Saturday 10 April.

The happy couple decided to hold their ceremony and reception at Giannis Portside and not only did they have their family and friends there to witness their vows but an entire P&O cruise liner. They certainly received a huge round of applause!

Following the ceremony, we headed off to Captain Burke Park for some location pics and then over to Wilsons Lookout to capture the Story Bridge at night.

We’d like to congratulate Peta and Abs and hope you enjoy the sneak peak at their photos.

Check out the hair on the make up artist!!!

 

The big day finally arrived for Kylie and Mark on Saturday 20 February 2010.

We started out the day with the girls at the Marriott Hotel before heading over to Brents at Toowong to meet up with Mark while he was waiting for his gorgeous bride to arrive.

Kylie and Mark’s wedding ceremony was one to remember, especially with Mark signing a personalised version of “Feels Like Home” to Kylie as she walked down the isle. This was a huge surprise for Kylie and was absolutely beautiful. The happy couple also kept their vows a secret and it was magic watching their faces as they heard each others words for the first time.

Following the ceremony, we headed off to UQ at St Lucia for some location photos.  This is a gorgeous spot for location photos and I think the images speak for themselves.

The reception was also held at Brents Restaurant and everyone had a fabulous evening.  The speeches were great,  the food was fantastic and the irish band/dancing….just perfect.

We’d also like to say a special thanks to Jason from City Coast Limousines and Brent/Alex and the staff at Brents.

Kylie and Mark,  we wish you every happiness in your life together and we hope that your images bring you joy for years to come.  Congrats guys!

 

Anna and Richard had been planning their special day for quite some time and it finally arrived on Saturday 28 November.

We arrived at Hotel Conrad in Brisbane’s CBD to commence photos with the girls and Anna was so very excited that her wedding day was finally here. As always, Tina was looking forward to seeing Anna’s dress and it certainly was impressive.

Once we had photographed the dress, shoes and flowers, it was time for Anna to get into that gorgeous dress of hers. Anna’s Dad looked so proud to see Anna when she finally walked out to greet us in her wedding gown. I think Anna was even fighting back a few tears.

After we’d finished photographing the girls getting ready, it was time to head over to the Kangaroo Point Cliffs to photograph Richard and his Groomsmen at the ceremony location. Richard and the boys were having a great time chatting and laughing and if my memory serves me correct, there were even a few jokes in there about Anna being late.

Anna and Richard had a beautiful ceremony overlooking the Brisbane River and although it was overcast, the rain stayed at bay allowing the happy couple to exchange their vows without getting drenched.

Following the ceremony we headed out for some location photos along the Kangaroo Point Cliffs and then over to the Captain Burke Park to capture some images with the Story Bridge in the background.

From the Captain Burke Park, I headed off with the bridal party to catch a boat which had been organised to take Anna and Richard to the reception at the Riverlife Marquee at Kangaroo Point Cliffs. As we motored past the guests standing on the boardwalk outside Riverlife, all of the guests were cheering and clapping for the happy couple. I have to say, this was a pretty cool experience and I was just their photographer. I can only imagine how it felt for Anna and Richard.

We’d like to thank Anna and Richard for allowing us the privilege of photographing their special day and we wish them all the very best.

Hope you enjoy the sneak peak at your images guys!
