it’s school holidays, I’m dreaming of our few nights away on the gold coast, but wanted to get something up here before we left.
so school formal time. with a mad men theme. cool, right? these guys were rocking it (whilst making me feel unbelievably old!!). loved all the suits and dresses and how hot is this car? I’m not even a car person, but I fell head over heels!
You may remember Jessica and Chris from a blog post not too long ago. They got married late last year during Queensland’s extremely wet period, and while their wedding day was perfect (and maybe a little wet) they still longed for some sun filled photos. We were meant to do an engagement shoot prior to their wedding but time just got away from us all. So this gave us the perfect opportunity to return to one of our favourite locations (which incidentally went under in the rain last year and hasn’t been useable again up until now) and give Jess and Chris those yummy warm sunny photos they were longing for.
Thanks for meeting up with us again guys. It’s always a pleasure working with you both.

I know, I know. It’s not very fair to all our previous clients to call this wedding my fave but I’m allowed because this wedding was one I’ve been waiting for for a very long time. For those of you that don’t know, Dani is my gorgeous sister in law. So now you can see why I (Bec) am allowed to say this is by far, one of my fave weddings.
Fiona is laying on the beach, sipping cocktails in Bali so I was lucky enough to shoot the day with the oh so lovely Katie Kolenberg of Heartstory Photography. Katie was absolutely amazing and I can’t thank her enough for helping me out. It was so nice to be able to sit back and enjoy the ceremony and know that she had it covered! Make sure you check out her blog over the next little while and see the images she captured during the day. I haven’t seen them yet but I just know they’ll be amazing!
Ok, so on to the wedding… Dani and Ben had family and friends traveling from near and far so they decided to hold their wedding somewhere a little bit interesting and exciting for their guests. Q Station at Manly was their venue of choice and it was the perfect place to get married.We stayed in the same cabin as Dani and I can’t believe how cool, calm and collected she was all day.
Getting ready was an easy going few hours. There was no rush, no panic, no stress.
The flowergirls were dressed by Tea Princess and the littlest one… well she belongs to me 
I can’t begin to tell you how proud I was of her. Along with her gorgeous cousin Jordan, they both did such a wonderful job on the day.
As I mentioned previously, Katie covered the boys and ceremony so we”ll skip straight to the after ceremony shots
I think I love these two photos the most because they are just Ben and Dani as they are. So happy and in love with eachother.
Two of the prettiest bridesmaids I think I’ve ever seen!
We ended the day with yummy food an amazing band and some pretty impressive dancing
Dani and Ben, I can’t tell you how happy I was to be able to share your day with you. We all had an absolute blast and Tony, I and all the kids wish you both a lifetime of happiness. Enjoy your short but relaxing honeymoon and don’t forget to keep an eye out on Katie’s blog for her preview. Love you both!

way back in may last year, fo did a maternity shoot for katey and andrew life kind of got in the way of doing a newborn session – as katey’s gorgeous twins were born just a few weeks after her maternity shoot!

and saving our favourite for last
mitch and nic love to collect vintage items. they live in a house that’s over 100 years old, own beautiful old valuable books and brought amazing antique items to their shoot. They asked us to come up with a concept engagement shoot and so we did! With the help of the gorgeous roberta from green and bloom, we created a dreamy surrounds for mitch and nic to relax, read their favourite books and enjoy each others company. there were plenty of laughs, lots of gorgeous lights and some amazing flowers provided by green and bloom.
Guys, we hope you enjoyed your afternoon as much as we did. Thank you for travelling all the way from toowoomba to see us. we’ll keep our fingers crossed that you get your power back on sometime this week.

ps- we would like to give a huge shout out to roberta for so kindly supplying us with so many beautiful flowers. if you’re after gorgeous, unique flowers for your wedding, give green and bloom a call. her work is amazing!
if you want to know how to REALLY celebrate your wedding, ask gan and ren! yes siree, these guys know how to party! they have had so many ceremonies, parties and celebrations for their wedding that I’ve totally lost count. they’ve stretched from australia to Malaysia and back again. we were lucky enough to be asked to shoot their reception at customs house in brisbane, where we were greeted with gorgeous colours, wonderful people and glorious food.
gan and ren, thank you for sharing your day with us. We hope you enjoy your sneak peek and we’ll be in touch very soon.

we dodged a lot to get this shoot done. traffic jams, rain clouds, security guards. they all did their best to ruin our afternoon of rooftop love, but did they succeed? nope, never, no way jose! ok, so maybe the ego overloaded security guard MAY have put a stop to our very cool escalator idea but we got over it and moved on. Tash and Lachlan, thanks so much for an awesome Friday afternoon shoot. We hope you had fun and we’ll be in touch very soon.

This afternoon we met with Julie and her two gorgeous children. The shoot didn’t start off as we had planned due to wind and beach closures but we worked it out and once the ball got rolling we had a heap of fun.
Julie we hope you like your sneak peek and we’ll be in touch very soon with your gallery.

we hope you enjoyed your macdonalds, jack!
