Most people think that the ideal photo conditions are during the day, sunny conditions and warm.

Not Phil and Rachel. How does 9 at night, in the pouring raining and freezing cold strike you? Well, they loved it.

We met up at Circular Quay and travelled between the Opera House and the Museum of Contemporary Art. We did try to stay under-cover, but you’ll see a few shots out in the rain.

These photos are going up a bit late, as their wedding has come and gone. You’ll get to see the wedding in a few days, for which the conditions were fortunately the opposite: sunny and warm.

Well, I’ve now shot a wedding in the my smallest country town yet: Mendooran, out in the central west of NSW. Megan and Davo got married in this ’small, sleepy town’ and it was an absolute blast.

After getting married in the local church, for the location photos, we headed out to the family farm, and up to the highest point for miles – not that it was really that high – but this lovely couple got engaged up there, and it was quite a view. (Also see if you can spot the woolly friends in a photo below.)

I may be biased, but I happen to think a good photo of your kids would make a great Father’s Day present. That’s what Sarah & Ben decided anyway, and they picked the first photo underneath as their favourite.

These photos are taken down by the lake at Valentine, a spot I think I’ll be using again.

After a quick coffee at Bill’s Bakery, we headed out along the Warner’s Bay esplanade for their engagement session. This lovely couple are flying high serving our country in the RAAF. Their love really does give them wings. (Okay, I’ll cut it out now.) Enjoy the photos!

Sure, they got married in early August, but for Geoff and Fiona (remember their engagement session) it was much more a spring wedding when judged by the weather, the flowers, and the smiles on everyones faces.

Their ceremony was held at Jesmond Uniting Church, (which was absolutely packed out) and then we ducked across the road to Jesmond Park for a few photos before heading off to the reception.

A good time had by all…

(A brief aside, Jo – one of the bridesmaid’s – had her Polaroid camera out. If you’re not in the know, they stopped making Polaroid film this year, and so these will be some of the last of those classic shots. Check the last photo below for a bit of a memory.)

Hope you enjoy the photos.
