Our lucky last wedding for 2010 was the wedding of Cherie and Josh on Saturday 18 December.

The happy couple were married at the Apostolic Church at Norwell, followed by a wonderful reception at Sirromet Winery.

The weather certainly wasn’t playing nicely for their big day however we were fortunate enough to get a few breaks in the rain and the photos are just stunning. We may be a little biased though.

Cherie and Josh had one of our biggest bridal parties to date and everyone was fantastic. One of our favorite moments was when we were photographing the boys only to have the girls chuck on their gumboots and run through the boys like crazy women – was pretty funny and made for some cool shots.

We were also very chuffed with all of the wonderful feedback when received on our little slideshow that we created at the reception. We sometimes surprise our brides by showing a few images from their day and this certainly turned out to be a hit with the guests. Thanks again to everyone for your kind feedback.

Tina would also like to say a very special thank you to Cherie, Josh, their bridal party and all of their family and friends for such a great day. This was Tina’s very last wedding for sometime now as we await the arrival of our little bundle of joy, who is due on 8 March 2011.

From both Tina and I, we’d like to wish Cherie and Josh all the very best for their future together.

Enjoy the images below!

 

We had the pleasure of photographing the wedding of Lucy and Brad on Saturday 23 Oct at the Powerhouse Museum in New Farm. After having many rainy weekends in Sept/Oct this year,  we were over the moon to wake up to a beautiful spring day.

After a lovely morning photographing the girls getting ready at Lucy and Brad’s place,  we headed over to the Powerhouse to capture some images of Brad and the guests waiting for the gorgeous bride to arrive.

Lucy and Brad had a wonderful ceremony and one of our favourite parts of our job is to capture the real emotion that you see from a couple as they take each others hand in marriage.

Once the happy couple had been announced as man and wife,  we gathered all of the guests for a large group shot before capturing some formal family photographs.

The Powerhouse and New Farm Park provided us with some wonderful photo opportunities and the couple even managed to flag down a police car for a quick photo.  Thanks goes out to the officers who were more than happy to oblige.  One of the groomsmen even provided us with a good few laughs after a crow decided to deposit some “good luck” down the front of his shirt – very lucky our lovely bride wasn’t standing in that spot!

We stayed on to photograph some images of the couple and their guests as they celebrated Lucy and Brad’s reception which was also held at the Powerhouse.  This was a great little venue and Lucy’s candy table was a big hit with the guests.  Lucy and Brad’s family and friends also gave some pretty funny speeches so there was lots of laughter throughout the night.

We’d like to say a big thanks to Lucy and Brad for allowing us to be part of their special day.  We truly enjoyed photographing their wedding and we hope you enjoy the sneak peak at their images below.

All the very best to Lucy and Brad.

 

Karen and Mathew’s big day finally arrived on Saturday 16 Oct and there was hardly a cloud in the sky.  Although,  it was a crazy windy day!

The happy couple had decided to hold their ceremony and reception at the Indooroopilly Golf Club and what a fabulous setting for your wedding photographs.

After Karen and Mathew were introduced as husband and wife,  we all jumped in the buggies and headed out on the golf course to capture some images of the newly married couple. Everyone had a great time and a few of the boys had a bit too much fun,  racing each other on the fairway! There was also some scary driving from some of the girls,  but we won’t mention names

We hope that you all enjoy the sneak peak at the images below and we’d like to say a big thanks to Karen and Mathew for allowing us to be part of their big day.

All the very best guys.

 

We had the pleasure of photographing the wedding of Cilla and Scott on Sunday 12 September 2010.

The happy couple decided to hold their ceremony at the Greek Orthodox Southside Parish and followed with a gorgeous reception at Customs House.

When we arrived to start Cilla’s prep photos,  the girls were super organised and were looking beautiful in their dresses.  Cilla’s family home certainly gave us a lovely backdrop for Cilla’s prep photos.

After a traditional Greek ceremony and plenty of congratulations from proud family and friends,  we all headed over to Customs house to commence some location photos.  Customs House is a great spot for photos and Cilla was absolutely stoked when she found out Customs House was finally available for their special day.

We had a fantastic day with Cilla and Scott and would like to say a big thanks for allowing us to be part of their special day.

Congratulations on becoming Mr and Mrs guys and we hope you enjoy the sneak peak at your images. All the very best for your future together.

 

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.

Tina & Nigel

 

Today we met up with the lovely Sarah and Tim for their E-shoot. It was a perfect Autumn afternoon and we headed down to the Brisbane Botanical Gardens to capture some fun and romantic shots of the happy couple. We’ll be photographing Sarah and Tim’s wedding next month so watch this space for some more images of their special day.

Thanks for a fun afternoon guys.

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!

 

Laura and Nathan were married on Friday 16 October at the beautiful Glengariff Estate, Dayboro.

Following the dust storms in the south east, we were a little worried about the haze that we’d noticed only a few weeks before during our trip to Dayboro however Laura and Nathan’s wedding day was perfect. Bright blue skies and just a little breeze to help keep everyone cool. Although, poor Nathan certainly felt the heat whilst he was waiting for his lovely bride to be.

The girls decided to get ready at a local Bed and Breakfast called Kirnicama B&B. This was a great spot with little houses scattered amongst the rolling hills of Dayboro.

Laura looked absolutely stunning in her wedding gown and the look on Nathan’s face as Laura walked down the isle said it all.

After the happy couple said their vows, we quickly organised the group and family pics and then we were off to get some photos of the bridal party amongst the Glengariff Vineyard.

We only had around 30min of light to photograph the happy couple so it was rush rush rush. Lucky we had such a relaxed bride and groom.

Once the sun had disappeared, we headed back up to the ceremony area for a few last minute shots and then the bride and groom re-joined their family and friends to celebrate at their reception.

We had a great time photographing Laura and Nathan and we hope you enjoy these images from their special day.
