Excitement plus!

So this week something exciting happened... My new sample wedding album arrived from print in New York! I'm so very very excited! Now I can't wait to show it off to clients! :-D Very happy with the results!

Today I'm off to photograph the final day of the Australian Light Aircraft Championships at RNAC. Should be a great day as long as the weather clears up for us. This week I will be more prepared however, and will have a larger hat and a million bottles of sunscreen in my camera bag! Probably today I will be using my 100-400L for most of the day, might change over to the 24-105L for some. Well, better go and do some lens cleaning :-)

Rainy Saturdays and Sunny Sundays!

Waking up on Saturday I was faced with a rather bleak looking day, not exactly what we were hoping for for our shot for the day. On Saturday afternoon we were to be doing a couples shoot for Todd and AJ. The intention was to do the shoot out at Walka Water Works in the afternoon, but unfortunately the weather disagreed with us. The day continued to look bleak until it finally started to poor down with rain so heavy it would have made it very difficult to get the shots we wanted. I still managed to have a bit of a wander around Walka to get a feel for the places we can shoot, but have had to move the couples shoot to another day. hopefully next time we have more luck with the weather!

Sunday morning we headed down to Newcastle to shoot the John Holland teams in the Newcastle Triathalon. It was a very hot and sticky day that resulted in me wishing I had taken my swimmers so I could shoot from in the water! The team did very well, and Alex and I were both able to get some great shots for them. Hopefully should be able to get some up here soon! The only downside to the day was the massive sunburn across my neck (with a nice white camera strap mark to break it up) and a lovely sunglasses tan as well. I think next time I will wear a bigger hat!

Stay tuned for more photo updates!

Dannielle and Kaine get Married

On Saturday I had the absolute honour of photographing Dannielle and Kaines special day. We were a little concerned about the weather in the days leading up to it, as they were predicting rain. This was definately not something we wanted for an outdoor ceremony. But on Saturday morning, I woke to a beautiful, warm, sunny day. The morning was spent do a bit of relaxing and double checking all my gear and batteries. When I arrived at the house Dannielle was getting ready at, I was met by a room with fabulous natural light! Needless to say this ended up being the room many of the photos were taken in. When the girls were all organised we headed next door to take some photos in the balinese garden the neighbours had. A special thanks to them for allowing us to use their yard.

The ceremony at King Edward park was beautiful. The rotunda is a wonderful location for a wedding. We then headed to Nobbys beach to take a few location photos before heading up to the East Maitland Golf Course to take a few more.

We couldnt have asked for better weather for the day! The day ran smoothly and we created some beautiful photographs for the happy couple to treasure forever! Congratulations on your special day Dannielle and Kaine!
