Katie & Greg

2010-10-08T15:44:00.000-07:00

Katie and Greg were married a couple of weeks ago, they were a great couple to shoot, Greg has a twin brother and if they hadn't had different coloured ties Katie might have married the wrong one, they were really similar and i had to check the ties before i posed them.

Cassandra & Gavin

2010-02-04T18:15:00.000-08:00

Cassandra & Gavin got married at The Kruger Baptis church in Redbank on Saturday. I arrived at the church and Gavin was there getting everything ready for the service. It was a very relaxed atmosphere with kids running around and the groomsmen playing up, Cassandra arrived and was greeted by gasps from the guests, she looked wonderful, a beautiful dress and was draped in a lovely Vail.

After the service we went to The Pan Pacific Gardens for some photos, it was a huge bridal party with 4 bridesmaids 4 groomsmen 4 page boys and a flower girl, i am sure there was more at the church so i guest we lost some along the way.

I have never shot an Aboriginal couples wedding before, but i am looking forward to the next one, considering the amount of people everyone was keen to play there part to help get the best photos.

I had a great time and I would like to thank Gavin, Cassandra and there friends for making us so welcome and for the help they all provided.

Kristy & Michael Eagle Heights Wedding

2009-10-27T04:44:00.001-07:00

Kristy & Michael had their first date and got engaged, and then got married at the same venue.

Kristy looked amazing and the bride’s maids dresses really made the bride stand out even more. Although due to some fires at the coast the visibility was not the best it was still a wonderful location to have wedding photos done.

Rachel & Silas

2009-10-26T16:52:00.000-07:00

I had the great privilege of photographing a wedding in Canberra last weekend, what a great location for wedding photography. Rachel & Silas met at university in Canberra so it hold a special place for them.Even thought it was freezing (for a Queenslander) we got some amazing images, the wedding was far from traditional but suited Canberra's moden style.

Donnie & Kim @ Cooroy, 23/5/09

2009-05-24T23:43:00.001-07:00

Donnie and Kim are a great couple, i have done some family photos for them a few years ago and was really pleased when they booked me to do there wedding.

Donnie and Kim hired out Cooroy Country Cottages for the wedding, what a stunning location, very quiet and quite beautiful. Of course it didn't rain until after i had finished taking photos as per normal. The wedding reception and photos all at the one location gets my vote.

Stunning wedding.

Carmen & Shingo, Mt Cotton 16th May 2009

2009-05-19T16:12:00.001-07:00

Carmen and Shingo were married at Mt Cotton rain Forrest Gardens on Mt view road. I have shot a lot of weddings there it always looks different, this time was no exception. Alicia Henderson did a fantastic job with the service.

The service and lunch and photos were all held at the same place so as the light wasn't right we waited till 4 to start our shoot, our day finished up on the top of Mt Cotton at sunset.

Fantastic location and a very happy couple, and they pay me to take photos, what a life....

This is one happy groom..

Robert & Katie Wedding 18th April 2009

2009-04-19T17:10:00.000-07:00

Robert & Katie are a fun couple, i knew after the prewedding shoot that they were going to be fun to work with. I was not dissapointed, Robert was in a lime green suit with a black hat and looked amazing, this is the brightest groom i have ever shot, he almost stole the show, lucky that Katie looked so fantastic that she put him in the shade.

Great wedding and lots of fun. Please enjoy the images.

PS. Robert stop stealing my images dont you know there copyright. haha

Kirsten & Kevin

2009-03-27T19:23:00.000-07:00

I first met Kirsten & Kevin at a bridal show last year and have been looking forward to shooting there wedding ever since. They are such a good looking couple that its such a joy to shoot them, Kevin is a bit camera shy but Kirsten makes up for his shyness.

The whole wedding was at Tambourine Gardens so it was nice and easy with no traveling once we arrived at the Brides.

The cottages and gardens are lovely, i shot my first wedding there nearly 10 years ago when the chapel had only just opened and i must say the owners have done a fantastic job converting it to a wonderful wedding location.

Congratulations and thank you for choosing me to photograph your special day, it was truly wonderful.

Robbie & Rachel Wedding in Port Douglas

2009-03-19T22:35:00.000-07:00

Robbie and Rachel are from Brisbane but decided to get married in Port Douglas as the had been there before and loved the location. I must admit that it was an amazing location to get married,(apart from the humidity) The chapel was right on the shore line and a really lovely building. After the service we went to a couple of locations with the bridal party and videographer.

This is a very small selection of the images captured on the day. I was very honored to be asked to photograph this wedding at such a wonderful location.

I wish them both all the best for there future, if the rest of there lives are as wonderful as there wedding day they are going to grow old very happy people.

Belinda & Anthony

2009-03-15T20:27:00.001-07:00

Belinda & Anthony were married at Mt Tambourine Rain Forest Gardens, the weather did its normal thing and threatened rain but held off for the photos, so i still have my record in tact.

Anthony and his best man, & family come to that are all joker. they love to pull faces, joke and generally mess around, this makes for a very relaxing atmosphere. It was a very fun and relaxing & fun wedding.

Really enjoyed shooting this one.

Steve & Chantel were married on Mt Tambourine @ Cedar Creek Estates The estate has a purpose built chapel for weddings and a great reception hall, this combined with the beautiful grounds is a perfect location for a wedding.

The following images are just a sample of what was taken on the day.

Aaron & Mandi's Wedding

2009-01-11T21:32:00.000-08:00

Aaron & Mandi got married at The Beenleigh Historic Village this weekend, I have known Arron and Mandi for a couple of years and was very happy when they asked me to shoot there wedding. I went to Aaron's first and got some cool shots of the boys doing what boys do, then we went to the hotel that Mandi was and photographed her getting ready. The Beenleigh Historic Village has its own chappel and Aaron had organised Andrew Prior (one of the 10 Tenners) to sing one of Mandi's favorite song's as she was walking down the isle.

I have photographed hundreds of weddings over the years and i must say that this was by far the best bride enterance i have ever shot. There wasnt a dry eye in the house, (I even had to choke back a few tears myself). His voice filled the church with the most amazing sound i have ever heard. Well done Aaron for organising that, I will remember that for ever.

The Historic Village has some great buildings, a reception venue ( The old Beenleigh Station) and vehicles so we didnt need to leave the place for the photos or the reception.

This is a small selection of the images i got on the day and i cant wait to process the rest and show them to Aaron & Mandi.

"Suprise" New Years Eve Wedding

2009-01-05T16:45:00.001-08:00

Nicko & Cilla decided to get married but wanted to do something a bit different so ther yad a suprise wedding. They invited there friends and family over for a New Year's Eve party and had a celebrant turn up and marry them. It was a shock to most of the guests, a few had suspitions that something was going on. Cilla & Nicko had hired some inflatable rides for the kids to play on (and a few of the adults) It was a really nice (unconventional) wedding.

Best of luck to you both and well done for a well organised event. Only 2 visits to the hospital and a couple of blown fuses.

The Bride enjoying the rides (In one of her many outfits for the day)

The Bride again.. ( No 2 change of clothes)

There were some outstanding wipe outs

It was nice of the boys (and girls) in blue to drop by to wish the happy couple a good day.

Outfit No 3 or 4 .. I lost count.

1300 Marry Us

2008-12-15T22:57:00.000-08:00

I was contacted by 1300marryus regarding advertising on there website, i have had various calls from people doing the same but the difference with this is that its a local business and Cathy actually came into my studio to discuss what business we could do together. I have decided to advertise with them as i believe that they will be a asset to couples who are organizing there weddings, the service is not just a web service but a phone service as well.

Renee & Brendon's Wedding day.

2008-12-01T00:19:00.001-08:00

Renee & Brendon were married at Mt Cotton Rain Forest Gardens, and the weather did exactly the same thing as the last wedding i did there, sky's open as the Bride arrives and stop's as soon at they are pronounced Man & Wife. I am still claiming my 30 year record of never shooting a wedding in the rain.

Renee's Dads house was a joy to shoot in, great light and a lovely house.

I have posted a few more images on my face book page.

Steve & Lynda's Adelaide Wedding

2008-11-23T22:36:00.001-08:00

Steve & Lynda got married on the beach in Adelaide, and had there reception at The Largs Bay Pier Hotel.

I have known Steve for many years and i consider him one of my closest friends. When he told me he was getting married i insisted on doing the photographs for him. I love to shoot weddings and to shoot one for such a friend as Steve was just a joy.

Lynda is from England (like myself) and because of the distance not all of her family members could attend the wedding, so i am going to upload some images to my Face book page, if you have face book you just need to become a fan of the page and you can view the images. Click this link.

Ursula & Nathan Wedding day

2008-11-16T23:23:00.000-08:00

Ursula and Nathan were married at St Patrick's Church in Beenleigh, Thanks to Lynda & Dervan, & Bernie & John for making us feel welcome in there homes.

We went to Logan park for some photos and then on to The Glen Hotel for the reception.

Krystal & Jayson Wedding day

2008-11-02T20:46:00.001-08:00

Krystal & Jayson were married at Krystal's dads house in Winderoo, the house is made in the Bali style with amazing carvings and statues all over the place. After the service and some photos at the house we jumped in to my London Taxi and went to a bridge that crosses the logan river to get some sunset shots, alas the clouds were sitting a bit low on the horizon so we could not do what we set out to to but we did non the less get some great images.

I would like to thank Cassie, Caitlan, Tim & Chad for there help through the day and to Mandy & Henry for having such a wonderful venue for a wedding, a awful lot of work went into getting the house ready for the wedding..

Alan & Bec's Wedding day

2008-10-12T16:52:00.001-07:00

Alan & Bec were married at Mt Cotton Rain Forrest Gardens . I thought that it was the day that my 30 year record of never doing a wedding in the rain was going to be broken. Just as Rebbecca arrived at the gardens so did the rain, the service was held under a canvas tent that is usually to keep the sun of the guests. The moment that the celebrant declared them "Man & Wife" the rain stopped and the sky started to clear. My record was safe and we went out into the gardens to get our photos.

I would like to thank "Cowboy" (John, the best man) for letting Bec use his house to get ready and have some photos taken, like a true Aussie cowboy the shed had been converted into a bar and was a very cool location to get some photos. Thanks.

Cowboy was just trying to talk Alan out of getting married, lucky it didn't work.

Alan was a little paranoid about being late, so we had a practice run at arriving at the service should there be a delay. As it turned out he was 30 mins early.

Bec looking stunning...

A quiet moment between Dad & Daughter.

Cowboys Bar.

I know "Cowboy" was best man but i think making Alan take the ring from his mouth was a little "Broke back mountain". If his wife wasn't one of the bridesmaids i think i would have been a little worried.

The fantastic cake

The first dance.

Kate & Mike Wedding Day Images

2008-10-05T23:53:00.000-07:00

I would like to thank Geralyn & Brendan, and Trish & Dave (the Bride & Grooms Parents) for making us feel so welcome and being so accommodating, nothing was too much bother and there houses were both great places to shoot.

Kate and Mike were married at St Finbarr's church in Ashgrove and we had the photos at The Stamford Plaza hotel. Kate is a teacher and some of the children from her class attended the ceromony. I would also like to thank Dave & Kristin (The bridal party) who were happy to troop around and didn't keep dissapearing for drinks as some bridal partys do, not that there is anything wrong with that, it just makes my job so much easier if everybody stays together.

Krystal & Jayson Pre wedding shoot.

2008-09-30T21:34:00.000-07:00

Krystal and Jayson are getting married on 1st November and came for there pre wedding photos on Sunday. Jason is a bit on the tall side so i might have to take a box for Krystal to stand on on the wedding day... OK not really, the height difference isnt really a problem and i look forward to getting some wonderful images. Krystal and Jayson are getting married at Krystal's parents home in Winderoo.

Lorin & Ian's wedding photos.

2008-09-29T18:26:00.001-07:00

Lorin & Ian were married at St Lucia University in the Grand Court, the Uni is amazing and a wonderful place to have a service and photos. After the service and family photos we had a walk around the uni and found some great little places to take some photos. The whole bridal party were a lot of fun and were right into getting pictures taken.

Thanks guys, you made my job so much easier.

James & Cathy 20th September 2008

2008-09-22T00:27:00.001-07:00

James and Cathy were married this weekend, the service, photos and reception were all at one location so it made things easier and gave us some time to get around the golf course to get some wonderful images.

James & Cathy are a really fun couple, and the bridal party were like mad things on the glof carts, i am so suprised that we didnt have a accident...A lot of fun was had by all..

Hope you love the images as much as i do.

Wedding Video

2008-09-17T04:47:00.000-07:00

I hope you enjoy it.

Lorin & Ian's Pre wedding photos.

2008-09-09T20:12:00.001-07:00

Sunday afternoon I met up with Lorin & Ian for there pre wedding shoot, I first met Lorin at a wedding expo back in April at the Beenleigh Historic Village.

Regular readers of my blog will know that I have been shooting a few of the pre weddings locally using the same locations, although its new for each of the couples, i was starting to notice that the location images were starting to look similar, I decided that i would take a walk around and find some new locations. After a couple of minuets i had found some great locations that i had never noticed before. I hope you like them.

Ian and Lorin are getting married on the 27th and having there photos and reception at St Lucia.

Susan & Adam

2008-09-09T20:11:00.000-07:00

Susan and Adam got married at a wonderful location on Mt Tambourine called St Bernard Tavern, the view from the back of the hotel looks all the way down to the gold coast. Due to some minor setbacks (lost keys and organizing 4 kids under 6 years old) the wedding was around 40 minutes late, so we had to work very quickly as the light was going real fast, even so we got some lovely shots over looking the views down to the coast and around the hotel.

James & Cathy

2008-08-15T18:58:00.001-07:00

James & Cathy are getting married on the 20th September and came to have there pre wedding photos done yesterday, James and Cathy are part of my BNI group and operate a company called All About Pools & Spa's.

Ok..I used the wall again... But you have to admit it works well.

My first wedding as a second shooter

2008-08-03T21:22:00.000-07:00

On Saturday I attended a wedding with Tammy from Barefoot Fotos Its the first time i have ever been to a wedding and not been the main shooter. Avid readers of my blog will remember Tammy from my first Trash The Dress shoot. Tammy was inspired by her own wedding photographer to become a wedding photographer. This was her first wedding and I went along to help out and calm her nerves a little. She did really well and i am sure Roberta & Don will be really pleased with the images.

This is a small selection of the images i shot..

Photography is not as easy as you think it is...Some times you have to squash you nose right into your camera..

Debbie's Trash The Dress Shoot

2008-07-16T21:14:00.001-07:00

I have been hanging out to post these images, i had to attend a workshop yesterday and have only just got around to downloading the images.

So here are some images from my latest Trash the dress shoot, Debbie was really brave as the water was a little cold and i kept getting her to lay down and roll around. I had the shoot videoed by Geoff from G.S.Productions. Click this link if you have a Face book account to see the video

Geoff did a really great job, it was one of the worst days to shoot, it was late cold and spitting with rain but its hard to tell from the images and video.

Geoff From GS doing his stuff...We arn't afraid of getting wet

Just showing images as we create them is a great way to motivate the models to do more fun things.

Ok...well maybe i should not have showed her the images...

Nice tan line Debbie.

Gold Coast Wedding Expo

2008-06-15T18:09:00.001-07:00

Yesterday i went to the Gold Coast wedding Expo at the Arts center. This is one of the biggest wedding expos on the coast and is held twice a year. Just about anything you want for a wedding was there from Photographers to Cake makers and wedding venues.

I had a wonderful response to my stand and have over 50 leads for weddings in 2009.

The following are pic's of my stand. Thank you to all the people that came to see me and all the wonderful comments on my work.

Brisbane Courier Mail 28th May 2008

2008-05-27T18:58:00.001-07:00

Brisbane Courier Mail, Page 47, Wednesday 28th May 2008.

The following article appeared in the Brisbane Courier Mail today and talks about the new photography trend called "Trash the dress" if you are a regular reader of my blog you will already know that i have been excited about this concept for the last 6 months. I was contacted by Paddy from the Brisbane Courier Mail and interviewed about this new trend, they then interviewed 2 of the brides that i have photographed, it's a coincidence that the PMA is currently setting up in Brisbane, this is the largest photographic show in the country and is in Brisbane every 4 years, the article is at the end of the section promoting the show.

Shane & Emma's Wedding

2008-05-11T19:14:00.000-07:00

Shane and Emma got married on Saturday at St John's Anglican Church at Burleigh heads, then had the reception and photos at Elevation restaurant on Tallebudgera beach.

The whole day went off with out a hitch (Except for Tom, Emma's father leaving his speech in Sydney) After the service and family photos were finished we all went down to the beach for the private shoot. I really liked the location and i will use it again for a "Trash the dress" shoot if i can convince Emma to do it.

Emma & Shane are child hood sweethearts and are very comfortable together so we were able to get some great casual photos as well as some traditional posed images. Emma's 2 other sisters were bridesmaids, so it was a family affair.

Congratulations on such a great and relaxed wedding.

Nicola & Justin Trashing Photos

2008-05-05T15:26:00.000-07:00

On Sunday afternoon I went down to the Gold Coast to do another "Trash The Dress" shoot. I have photographed Nicolas family previously, and when she came to my studio for her family portrait viewing she saw my "Trash the dress" print on the wall. When i explained what it was she was very keen to do a shoot as well.

Nicola has been married a while but it was a great excuse to wear the wedding dress again, I think a lot of brides never expect to wear there dress again, so when you can present a opportunity too, they jump at it. Having such a very different concept of what sort of images I want to create, people really embrace at the opportunity of doing something a little different and a bit outside the square.

This was a little different as we had some of the bridal party to trash too, the shoot was done on the north side of the gold coast spit where the water is calm and there are very few waves. This gave me the opportunity to do something different from my other shoots.

Greg Norris came along to second shoot for me and got some fantastic images of the kids together, also he was a great to have help in trying to perfect my overhead shots. (Still working on them, but getting there).

Thanks to Nicola & Justin for being so much fun to shoot.

I hope you like the images...Enjoy

Shane & Emma Engagement shoot

2008-04-20T01:20:00.000-07:00

Shane & Emma are getting married in a month so it was time for a engagement shoot, I am going to be in Emma's face all day so its a great opportunity to get to know her a bit better and for her to start to get used to me, and ultimately for her to trust that when i pose her it might seem odd at the time, but it looks different from where i am standing.

We just had a walk around Beenleigh stopping and shooting where the light looked nice, I also found a lovely little stone bridge along the way that we used and ultimately lead me to the silhouette shot which i love. Emma and Shane were very easy to work with and i am sure we will get some great wedding shots.

Here are some from today.

Beenleigh Tavern Wedding Expo

2008-04-19T16:37:00.001-07:00

2008-03-01T20:34:00.001-08:00

I did my first wedding expo yesterday at The Beenleigh Historic Village, The owners had opened their wonderfully village to the public and asked local wedding suppliers to have stands to show the public what they do. They had Hatton Gardeners Jewelers, Helena Stewart Designs Dresses. Wedding Stationary by Shontara as well as many many others, All the catering was done by Andria & Annette from Circles Catering.

They had set up the vendors in different locations around the village, i had been put on a veranda on one of the older buildings next to the station. I gave out over 30 price lists and business cards, got a couple of interview bookings and a couple of internet inquiries. Thank you for the opportunity to meet all the brides and grooms in such a wonderful location.

Best regards

Trash The Dress

2008-01-26T15:51:00.000-08:00

I met up with Tammy & Mark at the Marriott Hotel at Surfers Paradise, they were in the bar getting into the "Spirit of things", Tammy and Mark were wonderful to work with, she was keen to try anything I suggested, and from our email chat she knew what i was looking for.

We had both seen a lot of "Trash The Dress" images and to be honest we both said that were a little bored with them, beautiful images but, there didnt seem to be much fun being had. Tammy and I had exactly the same ideas, When you do something like this it should be fun, We set out to do just that.

First we went to the Gold coast spit and got some great images of them on the jetty with some waves breaking over the sea wall, and on the wonderful rocks on the jetty, then it was back down the pub for a bit more getting into the" spirit of things" before we hit the beach, oppersite Sea World.

The sun had pretty much gone down and it was just what i wanted, we had to work quickly, Firstly I had them do a few runs up the beach and in the surf to get things rolling, then we got them into the sea, Tammy and Mark were both having a good time and it really showed on there faces and in the images. My thanks to Heath & Greg who came along to assist and get a few images, i cant wait to see what they came up with.

Thanks guys you were great.

Trash The Dress

2008-01-25T17:46:00.000-08:00

Tammy will be "Trashing her dress" this afternoon at the spit on the gold coast just up from seaworld. This is really exciting and is going to be a great shoot, she has now got her husband involved and with a few drinks inside him we should get some really fun stuff.

Come back soon to see the images..

Trash The Dress

I was contacted by a bride that was married in Canada (in the snow) that was looking for a photographer that was willing to do a "Trash the dress" shoot. For those of you that don’t know what that is ist when a bride and photographer take the wedding shoot to a new level and the bride could end up doing all sorts of things Eg; getting wet. Muddy. Shooting in very different locations.

I will keep you posted as to when this will be happening.

Tracy & Mathew were married at home, Garry (Tracy's father) had spent a few months working on the gardens and getting the house set up with a marque in the garden. Great job Garry. The wedding was very informal and relaxed.

Katherine & James were married at home, James was still painting the cubby house 1 hour before the service, A Harley trike was the wedding vehicle that took them to the park for photos. The 2 flower girls were little stunners. Very relaxed and fun wedding to shoot.

The Nose Picker

Sometimes there are just moments that are "Classic" im sure this image will be used at her 18th Birthday party, the full sequence of 7 images ends in with the little angel eating whatever it was she got out of her nose.

Marco & Melissa November 2007

I have known Marco & Melissa for a number of years and was very happy to be asked to photograph their wedding. I arrived at their house and was really pleased with the location, the house was filled with lovely natural light, and freshly painted walls. Jeff & Marilyn (Melissa’s Mum & Dad) have been doing some renovations and the house was a photographers dream, Jeff has done a great job, wish I could shoot all my weddings in that house.. Well done.

Melissa looked wonderful, all the dresses, including the bridesmaids were all made by Betty (Melissa's grandmother... Got to love a Granny that can sew like that..) And she did a wonderful job, all the girls looked great.

We left the house for the service in All Saints in the city in a procession of London Cabs. (Mine leading. Did i mention i own a 1972 London Cab...)

Stephen Jones from Arana Photography helped me with the shooting of this wedding it was really great to shoot with another photographer of Stephens experience.

From the church we went to the Stamford Plaza and down to the river for the photos, I really love shooting at the Stamford, it’s a great location and endless possibilities. We had a lot of fun and the relaxed mood really shows in the images.

The reception was held at Gambaro’s Italian restaurant on Caxton St. Great food, nice atmosphere and a great night was had by all..

Congratulations Marco & Melissa the day ran smoothly and without a hitch.
