Anna and Andrew: A Lake Wedding

The best thing about weddings these days is seeing couples express just who they are. With that in mind we were very much looking forward to sharing Anna & Andrew’s unique wedding day. It started like most, but following a lovely church service the whole bridal party — 16 in all! — boarded a boat and spent an hour heading over to the gorgeous Raffertys Resort on the other side of the lake for their reception. On board the board the beer and bubbly flowed as the bridal party had a blast, with one or two dashes for the inside as the skies sporadically poured.

After a few photos on the shore we headed up to party on, where there was more beer and bubbly. Anna & Andrew, you sure know how to party!

Can you tell these guys might like a spot or two of fishing? (Check out that cake!)

Kylie and Dean’s Winter Wedding

Brrr… this weekend was a bit chilly and blowing an absolute gale, but that doesn’t make a winter wedding any less fun.

Kylie and Dean got married this last Saturday at St Peter’s at East Maitland. Such a gorgeous church (in fact Giuls and I considered it for our wedding), and Kylie only made Dean a little bit nervous in her ‘fashionably’ lateness. She rocked it in the stunning dress you’ll see below, and there was just a comparison or two to some well-known movie stars.

We had some photos inside the church out of the wind, and then headed over to the old train station at East Maitland, and then into Newcastle. Once we arrived into town and headed for the baths, it was just a little surprising to see enormous waves crashing right over the top and overflowing, but it made for quite enjoyable watching (and worrying about a few photographers set up out in the middle of it).

Then it was just over the road to Noah’s, where there was plenty of time for the girls to warm their feet up again before party time! I’m not quite sure I understood the panda, but there you have it.

Hope you enjoy the photos, and we wish you, Kylie and Dean, a great honeymoon.

Hunter Valley Wedding: Hannah and Chris

After the crazy road trip on Saturday, it was straight back up to the Hunter Valley for Hannah and Chris’ Sunday wedding. And even in the midst of the insane weather we’ve been having up here in June, it was the most glorious day.

The ceremony was held at the cute little Lovedale Chapel and after going for a little drive in the countryside for some photos, we ended up at the Sebel Kirkton Park in time for an exquisite sunset before heading in for the reception.

Hope you enjoy the photos.

Sydney Wedding: Sarah and Richard

Sometimes being a wedding photographer can be full-on. On the first weekend of June I had the pleasure of capturing two weddings, starting with Sarah and Richard’s on the Saturday (more about Sunday to come later).

I feel I’m allowed to describe day as epic, with a road-trip all the way across Sydney (yes, I’m from Newcastle, so I can call travelling the width of Sydney a road trip:), starting with the guys and girls getting ready in the Blue Mountains, then to the lovely Hillsong Chapel in Baulkham Hills and then across to the stunning Manly Golf Club for the reception.

Sarah and Richard have a long love story together, and even though Richard’s advances were rejected in primary school (and then chocolate was required to get through the speeches) they did end up together! Congratulations guys, it was a fantastic day and I hope your married life together is amazing.

Carly and Brendan’s engagement session

With the crazy weather of late, it’s been a bit tricky to get out and take some photos.

But Carly and Brendan were prepared to brave it, but after a warming coffee at Baristaba (recommended!) it just meant we had the whole Honeysuckle foreshore area to ourselves, without another soul in sight.
