Indulging my sweet tooth

I'll take just about any opportunity to indulge my sweet tooth.  So when our six year old asked for some Mashmellows it seemed like a fun project for us to work together and to photograph them.








Naturally we didn't have long, as they slowly started to disappear.

More than just great images

Choosing a professional photographer isn't just about amazing images.  Of course that's a huge part of it - knowing you are going to get stunning and unique memories of your day, not just the sort of everyday shot Uncle Fred could capture. But there's more to it than that - your photographer will be a wealth of knowledge about Weddings because they will have attended so many and have probably seen just about everything you could imagine. That advice and expertise, especially regarding the timing of the day, comes free of charge from a supplier whose only aim is to make sure you to have the most relaxed and enjoyable day so that he, or she, can capture those magical moments for eternity.





We like to meet up with our couples in the lead up to the big day.  Firstly for an E-Shoot about 3-6 months before the wedding.  This is a photo shoot that allows us to get to know each other a little better, and also get rid of the nerves you may have in front of the camera. Many of our photographic packages include this shoot in the price, but it is a fairly cheap and worthwhile addition to any package.  We provide an online viewing album for you to view the images, and you can purchase any you may like as prints, canvases, maybe an photo album, or for use in stationery or guestbooks for the wedding.



A week or two before your special day we meet up again. This time it is to go through the final timings of the day, and all the little details you have planned.  The more you tell us, the easier it is for us to capture all of the moments important to you.  Having fun, and capturing great images on your day is about doing the preparation, and allowing plenty of time - after all, the more time we have, the more choice of shots you will have.



Look through our blog articles.  They will show you our style of photography and filming. Our work is an art form, and we work hard to provide the best possible images - still or moving - from your day. We absolutely love what we do, and the greatest satisfaction we receive is from our clients and their responses to our work.

"I just wanted to say a massive thank you to you for producing the most wonderful wedding video for Danny and I. You successfully made me cry again as we watched our special day. Danny also had a few tears (very cute).
I couldn't have asked for a better video, we are rapt.
Thank you so much for creating this treasured memory for us.
I will be highly recommending you."

Amanda & Danny 2010

Make a time to talk about your special day, and how we can help capture all the precious moments as they unfold.

Holiday Fun

We really enjoyed the recent school holidays, and as usual we took our cameras everywhere.















On the last day of school holidays it was so windy at our place we decided to take a drive and head to Redlands.  The weather was a little breezy, but the sun shone, and we soaked up every drop.


(It looks like I'm photographing an alien)

I like to think of this one as a self portrait.  Like so many of our clients I also hate being in front of the camera lens, but I know how I love to look back at where we have been and what we have done.



Sometime a scene isn't complete until it has something special in it - Dave's camera.

Timeless Elegance with Ideal Bride Magazine

Here is the next film in the series of promotional trailers we have shot for Ideal Bride Magazine. We loved working with so many talented people to put together some amazing imagery that will feature in the next edition of the magazine.

You may have seen some of the images from the photo shoot with JK Couture already on Dave's blog. Joanne's haute couture gowns looked stunningly beautiful in the elegant surrounds of Tattersalls Club.

We've saved some of the best images for the magazine though, so make sure you get your copy of the next edition of Ideal Bride - on sale 1st August.
