Candice Campbell Photography: Glittering gowns and purple skies!

This past weekend I had the opportunity to photograph the wedding of Caroleanne and Chad. We experienced many different types of weather that day too! When I woke in the morning, I found myself looking at the dark clouds and packing all the umbrellas in the car ready to go. It was freezing cold so I was sure to put on a scarf. By the time I got to Newcastle it was hot and sunny with not a cloud in the sky.The ceremony was held in the beautiful Christchurch Cathedral. At the end of the ceremony, the beautiful big doors of the Cathedral opened and we made our way outside. It was bitterly cold and the wind was enough to knock anyone over! We worked quickly to do the group and family photos and then jumped in the car to head off to our locations. We lost light very quickly, but the darker it got, the more inspired I got! The streetlights came on and iluminated the purple sky, creating shimmering light on Caroleanne's gold sequin gown! Just stunning! We drove around Newcastle using various different streets and buildings as our back drop, occasionally stopping off places like the train station and the Great Northern Hotel for some more awesome shots. After that we walked down to Customs House for the reception where Kylie and I had our usual photobooth selfies, I got fed a prawn by the groom and had a bit of a swing dance on the dance floor with a groomsman! Thanks so much for a truely awesome afternoon and evening guys!!!!!
