Weddings are without a doubt my favourite thing to photograph. It’s such a privilege to capture the biggest day in someone’s life. Check out the latest weddings here…

Morgan & Katie | Wedding

It was a case of right place, right time. A few Tuesdays ago at about 10.30pm, Christine Pobke wrote on Facebook that she urgently needed a second shooter for Saturday’s wedding in the Hunter Valley. Ever since my mentor session with Christine back in June, I’ve been dying to shoot with her again, so I immediately said I could. A few quick emails and it was locked in and I was stoked (I’m not sure The Fisherman appreciated me waking him up with the news though…).

Thursday came and Christine emailed me the run sheet for the day and I saw the names of the bride & groom. Morgan & Katie of THE MORGAN & KATIE SHOOT!! That’s about when I almost died of excitement. Any bride who puts together such amazing details for an e-shoot…well the wedding would be epic. Epic it was my friends, and so comes the biggest most epic post I’ve done to date.

Danielle & Dirk | Wedding

Danielle & Dirk are back from their honeymoon so it’s time to share their Mudgee wedding.

I’m not sure how many people would notice, but you can see in this next photo that Dirk’s wedding ring is a bit worn. He started wearing it the day they bought them because he wanted to show the world he was spoken for. I love it.

and the grins!

After a few minutes of congratulations and family photos, I only had about 10 minutes to get a few shots of the newlyweds alone. You don’t necessarily need a few different locations and a couple of hours to get the images you want, sometimes it’s just in the way they look at each other to see how happy they are together. That’s what really counts!

PS Can you tell Danielle used to be a model? In all the time I’ve known her, she has tried to avoid cameras like the plague. Something changed that day though, and she really started to work it :)

The reception was in the church hall right behind the church & started pretty much straight after the ceremony. Fortunately though, I was able to spend some time there earlier in the day to get a few detail shots during the setup. The roses on the tables were incredible – they were huge!!

This cutting of the cake was perhaps the funniest I’ve ever seen. As they drove the knife in, it started to collapse. I love the expressions on Dirk’s face in this series :)

A local square dance band ‘The Stringybark Band’ kicked in once the tables were cleared and formalities over, and everyone really seemed to get into it!

Sky & Mick | Wedding

After seemingly never ending weeks of rain here in Sydney, I woke on the morning of Sky & Mick’s Wedding to a 100% blue sky, and while it didn’t last the whole day, we did manage to get away with no rain!

I started out with the girls getting ready at Sky’s grandmother’s house in Strathfield.

I loved the bouquets!!!

There’s something about the look on Sky’s face here that just makes me smile. She seems so deep in thought, contemplating the day ahead, but not nervous as such.

As the boys were getting ready about an hour away from the Church, I didn’t get to spend time with them getting ready, but we still managed a few quick portraits outside the church before the ceremony got started.

How relaxed does Mick look!!

Sky’s Grandmother was so unbelievably proud to be walking her down the aisle

I have shots of the actual kiss, but the smiles on their faces in this one says 10 times more to me :)

The theme for the reception was ‘Orange’. I know you’re probably thinking that’s a colour not a theme…but there’s a story and I love it!

In the early days of their relationship, Sky & Mick watched a movie (the name of which escapes me) where the question was posed: why are the words I love you so special? What makes those words more significant than say ‘coffee’, and so for the rest of the movie, when either person said coffee it meant I love you. Sky & Mick took this on board and came up with Orange. So when you look around the room, and see orange letters on the cake, balloons and napkins, it all means I love you.
