I had a lovely Engagement session with the winners of our Brighton Novotel Expo winners, Elaine & Warren. With their wedding later in the year, they used this e-session as an opportunity to create some fantastic images to use on their invitation and they brought some great props that have been handed down from many previous friends' weddings.

Despite the wind, we found a sheltered spot and Elaine's hair and makeup by Living Beauty Makeup Artistry looked fantastic (as usual) and held up against the cyclone beautifully. Elaine looked delightful.

Thanks guys, it was lovely to meet you and share this special time with you. Have fun planning your big day!

Lauren & Chris' Blue Mountains wedding last weekend was an exceptional way to round out my summer wedding season and I was happy and honoured just to have been there to stand as witness to their special day...until Lauren sent me this:

Hi Sam,
Thanks so much. You don't know how pleased Chris and I are with the photos.
I can't believe the magic you've worked in the photos, and all the family are thrilled too. You did a fantastic job! I also browsed through what you've uploaded, and its just amazing. They look like advertising! Looking forward to getting some of these framed!
Take care -- and I won't hesistate to recommend your work to anyone I know in Sydney who is getting married!

Lauren & Chris's big day came with one stipulation for their guests - dress: Vintage. They all willingly obliged and the happy couple were delighted with their guest's efforts.

After a lovely ceremony at St. Bonaventure's Catholic Church in Leura, we ventured to the Mt. Victoria Manor House for photos and an intimate wedding dinner. vintage themed of course!

Congrats on your marriage and on planning such a unique, heartfelt and intimate wedding.

What a fantastic day for shooting a wedding on the harbour! Kim and Chris' relaxed affair began with the ceremony by the harbour, then carless, we walked around the quay for some magical shots! The night finished off at the Italian Village.
