Sometimes the best kissing images are not the kissing ones! Capturing the before or after can give more emotion and truly portray your relationship. Timing the shutter is everything. Relying on the motor drive just doesn’t work!
McGrath Foundation Charity Project at Port Melbourne Beach on next week.
Back to the city again!
In 30 min we had the classic thru to the modern at the Melbourne Museum. The Exhibition Gardens, the classic Royal Exhibiton Buildings and the bright modern elements of the Museum gave great backgrounds for the locations. We then roamed around in the limo’s to some interesting grunge locations near Docklands. Yes there are a few left!!
This Country Wedding was held at the local Catholic Church and naturally the Reception had to be at the 1870’s family home. Absolutely georgeous the big marquee and all the locals who have know the family forever.
We visited the local fishing port bought fish and chips at the local chippery. Great shots of bridal party interacting over the chips & beers with seaguls in the background. The shawls on the Bridesmaids worked really well on this chilly day. The quiet port yielded some grand vistas. Those clouds are amazing in the photos.
Never a dull moment in Winter Weddings! I had a big Greek wedding last weekend and being winter meant we lost the light so quickly. But I simply went from one idea to the next with the large Bridal party.
Luckily we were across the road from the Parliament House and we had cafes, the Windsor Hotel and some greenery near the Treasury Gardens. It was only when I got back to the the studio in Port Melbourne and had time to look at the images that I thanked my instincts and exprience in the City. The couple have a great range of images. It will take a little time to get them on the blog.
We just completed album from a Yarra Valley winery wedding.

I have really enjoyed the last few weddings. On the day we had a beautiful Spring warmth to the air.
We visited Albert Park Lake, had a great walk (and fun photo session). We then found some new locations around the Docklands area. Old warehouses and new contemporary locations.
I have an apology to make. We are in the peak season now, photographing 4 days per week and doing a lot of interesting work. I will try to pop new stuff on whenever I can fit it in.
Things have been moving very fast lately!
We got into the Ballarat International Foto Biennale Fringe Festival. Very excited and the Biennale is just terrific to look thru.
The Festival finishes 4th October 2009. Our exhibition is called “A Feeling of France…” it is not a a traditional landscape travelogue. It covers images from Paris, The Avignon (Drama) Festival and the nearby Provence area.
The images have soft pastel colours and are printed on beautiful fine art paper.
The reaction of visitors has been very exciting.
Please come along and say high its open 7 days 11am till 5pm.
