As a photographer I’m lucky enough to have a job that allows me to appreciate the ever changing seasons and fabulous weather we get here in Queensland.

With Winter just around the corner,  Autumn is one of those awesome times of year where we experience cool crisp evenings and lovely warm days.

Saturday 10 March 2012 was our very first Autumn wedding for the year and our fabulous couple, Luke and Kirstie, were just so easy going and relaxed.

As a photographer himself,  we half expected Luke to have this huge list of photo destinations and a set of detailed instructions but Luke and Kirstie were just happy to let us work our magic. You guys rock

Luke and Kirstie decided on an early afternoon wedding at St Mary’s Church, Kangaroo Point. This gracious old church is really beautiful and what a great setting overlooking the Brisbane River sitting atop the Kangaroo Point Cliffs.

After Luke and Kirstie had been announced as Mr and Mrs,  we headed off to capture some location photos at the Kangaroo Point Cliffs and UQ St Lucia.  Both awesome spots for wedding photos and looked even better with two Mustang’s in the photos.

The days celebrations saw our last stop at the Summit Restaurant, Mt-Cootha.  We hope everyone had a fabulous night celebrating with Kirstie and Luke!

Thanks again to our wonderful couple Kirstie and Luke.  We hope you guys had a fantastic day and we look forward to speaking with you both really soon.

Enjoy your sneak peek below.

Rain, rain, go away……you aren’t gonna ruin this wedding day!

In the days leading up to Anna and David’s wedding,  Brisbane was copping an absolute drenching and as you may have read in our previous blog posts…….rain and cameras = no fun at all.

We woke to the big day on Saturday 28 January 2012 to find that it was still a rainy old day. Boohoo! But not to matter, with our wet weather plans previously sorted we packed our big umbrellas and a change of clothes (just in case!) and we were off to meet up with our gorgeous bride Anna.

Anna and the girls were all cheerfully prepping for the big occasion when we arrived at Anna’s family home.  All of Anna’s girls were ready and looking fabulous,  so it was all very relaxed while Anna’s hair and makeup was finalised.

It’s always great to watch as our lady of the moment is transformed into a gorgeous bride.

Thanks also goes out to Anna’s Mum and Dad for allowing us run of the house….particularly for allowing us to rearrange the furniture!

Once we’d finished shooting our bride (hehehe) and her lovely bridesmaids,  we were off to meet up with David and the boys at Hills Church, Everton Park.

David was all smiles when we arrived and was very eager to hear all about his stunning bride Anna.  Tina loves telling the groom how gorgeous his bride is looking
Hills Church was a great location for their wedding,  with heaps of space and the lighting made for some really great photographs.  The band was also super awesome.

Anna and David had opted to do something a little different,  by cutting their cake immediately following their ceremony and enjoying some relaxing beverages with family and friends before heading off on our location photos adventure.

We had planned some really cool photo locations at Walkabout Creek and nearby parks however gum boots and a big umbrella wouldn’t have been enough to save us from the rain/rain puddles.  So…instead we decided to use the gorgeous UQ at St Lucia.

Wedding photos at UQ St Lucia is always a fantastic option with the Great Court’s beautiful sandstone buildings.   It gives off such a romantic feel to the photos and what more could you ask for.

After some fun at UQ,  we were off to Walkabout Creek for the happy couples reception.  The team at Walkabout Creek did a wonderful job with the reception venue and the big “Mr and Mrs O” was a great touch to the bridal table.

Anna and David,  we hope that you had a wonderful wedding day and we truly appreciate being given the opportunity to share in this special occasion. We wish you all the happiness in the world and we hope that you’ve enjoyed the sneak peek at your gorgeous wedding photos.

The wind was blowing 30 knots and the rain showers were heavy, luckily for Amy and Mark it was the day before the lucky couple were tying the knot.

Amy and Mark were married in the gardens at the Mt Ommaney Hotel Apartments on Saturday the 20th of August 2011.

I greeted the girls who were preparing in one of the rooms at Mt Ommaney Hotel Apartments. Amy was calm and collected and had everything under control. Amy’s bridesmaids got dressed and then helped Amy into her dress.

I then met up with the boys who were greeting guests as they were arriving. We popped down to the car park where one of groomsman had an old landrover that was in great condition. I snapped a few photos of the boys with the car and got ready to capture the couple tying the knot.

After the ceremony the happy couple got into convertible and we all headed to the University of Queensland St Lucia Campus. The Great Court at St Lucia is a gorgeous spot for wedding photos.

After the location photos we headed back to the Mt Ommaney Hotel Apartments where the couple had their reception and danced the night away with Gavin from DJ Network who provided a great soundtrack for the night.

There were definitely some awesome dance moves.

Enjoy your photos guys.

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!
