Kristie & Nathan (wedding in Armidale)

Wednesday, May 20th, 2009

Kristie & Nathan were married a few weeks ago on a rather cold sunday afternoon at the Chapel at The Armidale School (TAS). When I first met Kristie, it was with her mum Julie. They came into my office and checked out my work and it came out that Rob Heyman photographed Kristie’s parents Julie and Keith’s wedding back on the 8th of December 1975. Rob is a very inspiring photographer who taught me a lot!

I’m sitting here searching for words that can properly convey the energy that was felt at this wedding. I just can’t!

There were lots of amazing industry professionals working on this wedding and it was an absolute pleasure to be a part of it! 

Enjoy these gorgeous images.

Samuel & Olivia (wedding)

Monday, May 11th, 2009

I think some people have been a little worried that I’ve been getting no work as they’re not seeing much on the blog. Not true. I’ve been getting lots of work, hence why there’s been nothing on the blog. The clients have taken priority and the blogging has come second. Yeah, I won’t lie, Winter is QUIET! So now I have time to share with you what I’ve been doing in the last few months!

I’m blogging totally out of order. This was a wedding I shot a few weekends ago, but there are lots to blog before that. This is a wedding for one of the most loved (and loving) couples I know. Samuel was my housemate, until he woke up one morning, got married and moved out that day! He also hired me as the professional to capture his wedding whilst being in the bridal party. I knew I couldn’t do it all by myself, so I called in Cathy Crawley from Beautiful Moments Photography. Cathy helped me get the shots I had to be in and we got to hang out and have a great time. You can see more pics on her blog! Including the ones that I’m in that she took.

I’ve known both Samuel & Olivia for quite some time. Samuel was the geek who I knew would find a princess. Samuel is no longer a geek, and he still got the princess. Livi was the girl that had people talking and wondering why she was single. She was one of the most loving and compassionate people around. Then they found each other. Super cool guy + Princess = samnliv.

I wanted Sam & Liv to have the best photos ever. We nailed it. Check them out!

These photos from this point on were actually taken near Dorrigo. Sam & Liv were having their honeymoon near so we decided to do these photos on the way!
