Kate + Ryan {Naked Fig Cafe Wedding}

I loved, loved, loved Kate & Ryan's wedding.  From the moment I got to Kate's parents house where the girls were getting ready, to the point I left the wedding guests to party the night away, it was just calm and relaxed and a lot of fun!  

Kate and Ryan were friends for two years before they went on their first date.  Sometimes things start slowly but Kate's Mum told me during the evening that she knew that they were perfectly suited for each other, a perfect couple.

It was a very relaxed wedding but it was also perfectly planned by Kate.  The date Kate and Ryan for their wedding is also the 36th wedding anniversary for Kate's parents and got married at the same church.  After the wedding, we headed to Matilda bay for family photos and then off to the Civic Centre in Cottesloe for photos with the bridal party.  

The reception was held at the Naked Fig Cafe in Swanbourne and it was perfect for a summer wedding where the guests can watch the sunset over the ocean, and also we managed to fit in a little session on the beach for photos with the sunset and the full moon!

Big thanks to Jasmin for second shooting (again!).

My favourite part of a sunset is just afterwards, where everything turns soft and pink!  PINK LIGHT!!! LOVE IT!!!

Kate & Ryan, I hope you enjoy the images!  Big thankyou for inviting me to shoot your special day and Jas & I had so much fun capturing the day!!!

Facebook gallery will be up in a couple of days with a lot more captures from the day!

jenni + jason {mosmans wedding}

What a way to finish off an amazing year of weddings, right where the year started at the beautiful waterfront Mosman's Restaurant.

Jenni & Jason's wedding was relaxed yet elegant with amazing attention to details and a stunning bride and groom.

Jenni wore a beautiful Carla Zampatti dress that was so light and complemented her sparkly Jimmy Choo's perfectly!  Swoone! 

The wedding ceremony was held at the All Saints College Chapel and the reception at Mosman's restaurant.  Between the ceremony and reception the bridal party headed to Fremantle for portraits.  I have never seen Cliff street that busy, all because of the sailing championships.  But never mind, that is the wonderful thing about Freo, you can always find a quiet corner and we found two.

Big thanks to Jas again for second shooting and capturing the awesome ring shot including the wedding date.

Jenni is a keen cook, and got macaroons from Cake love couture for the favours and to decorate the Takes the Cake Cake.  YUM!

I hope you both had an amazing day and enjoy the images!!!

2011 - WHAT A YEAR

2011, what a big year... I think this has been the busiest year yet.  I want to give a huge thanks to the amazing couples that invited me to capture their wedding.  I had a blast shooting them and meeting some amazing people and getting to photograph some truly beautiful weddings.

Thankyou to Jasmin who has second shot for so many of the weddings this year and kept me in stitches while yielding the camera, and Charmaine for being the DIY queen with setting up the Photobooth side to the business.  I am looking forward to a crazy, fun 2012 with you both!

And one last thanks, to Dale, who is so patient throughout the wedding season and puts up with communicating to the back of my head when I am editing, the mad cleaning and stashing of items in random places when I have meetings in the studio and dealing with more wedding talk than any boyfriend should ever listen too :)

2012, I cannot wait to see what is in store!

PS 2011 is still not over, 3 lovely weddings still to appear on the blog in the coming days!!
