darwin & kit got married… 13 dec ’08

Saturday, December 13th, 2008

what a gorgeous little ceremony; a 2-car internal garage was converted into a chapel filled with fairy lights and candles, and all the family went overboard on the food and preparations to help kit & darwin have a memorable and beautiful day! their only daughter performed beautifully not only as flower girl but read and sang during the ceremony, and other music and readings were offered by close friends and family.

but first… getting ready! i couldnt choose between so many shots so i made a bunch of montages to help capture the preparations:

and then, the ceremony began (very intimate lighting, made my job more challenging than usual – but, we work with what we get!)

then it was time to laugh and relax together with cake, toasts, speeches and of course, the yummy food!

the evening sky was beautifully painted and lit the whole garden up with gold shafts, before the sun finally set on a wonderful day!

val & chris wedding… 24 feb ’08

Sunday, February 24th, 2008

it was exciting to hear that chris & val had chosen me to record their wedding day! chris has been a good friend for over a decade and it was awesome to have such a joyful excuse to travel down to see him & his family again. i had not met his bride before that weekend but val was lovely & made me feel very welcome.

here are a few of my favourites from their big day:

 

swinny & paul’s wedding… 7 oct ’07

Sunday, October 7th, 2007

what a great day! because the bride & groom’s homes were nearby eachother, i was able to get to both to document the preparation of each party, which is always nice. swinny was gorgeous of course, she has incredible poise and holds herself like an experienced model so she was wonderful to photograph. paul looked very handsome in his formal suit, and everyone had a wonderful time. some faves from the day…
