Jen & Hamish // Engaged

March 1, 2010 Posted in ENGAGEMENTS

Last Sunday I got to hang out with Jen & Hamish and take some piccies of them. They are without a doubt two of the sweetest people I’ve ever met and I can’t wait for them to get married in April.

To me, they seem like a perfect example of what I think relationships should be, and that is fun. They tease each other and play around, and I think that’s the most important thing to have in a relationship. I’m not so sure that Hamish appreciated Jen & I ganging up on him and teasing him, but it made for a good laugh for the two of us.

Even their very cute engagement gave me a chuckle. Neither one knows exactly quite how it happened, but they were on the phone to each other, Hamish mentioned something about wanting to get married, Jen thought he was joking, then realised he was being serious and tears and laughter ensued. I’m not sure I’ll ever know quite how it happened, or whether they will, but I’m really glad that it did.

Here are Jen & Hamish.

Just a quick sneak peak of Sunday’s engagement shoot with Jen & Hamish, who couldn’t have been more fun to hang out with. More pics to follow very, very soon.

I was so excited when Miss Polka, who runs one of my favourite inspiration blogs for weddings Polka Dot Bride, decided to feature James & Christine’s engagement photos. The features on Polka Dot Bride have always been inspiring to me, so to be a part of the blog and that inspiration is truly amazing. I’m so happy and so incredibly honoured to be featured on it.

So, head on over to Polka Dot Bride and leave some love.

A trip down memory lane: James & Christine are engaged

February 2, 2010 Posted in ENGAGEMENTS

I posted this engagement on my old blog just before I decided to make my site and my blog a part of each other. I sort of feel like it’s been a little lost in the transition and wanted to share it with everyone and have it properly a part of the blog. Christine & James are possibly the sweetest couple that I have ever met and are even more crazy about each other than they were when they met 5 years ago.

Here is their story.

James & Christine both worked for OzEmail back in the day (and by back in the day, I mean a few years ago, which in the world of technology really is back in the day). James had a thing for Christine, but she insisted that she didn’t want to be involved in a relationship. He knew better, refused to take no for an answer and very slyly convinced Christine to go get drinks after work without her really realising that she’d just agreed to it. A few drinks and a work harbour cruise later and they were officially dating.

It’s now 5 years later and next November James & Christine will be tying the knot and I’ll be there to capture all those moments. I really can’t wait!

Love you both!

A brand new day, a brand new year, a brand new decade

January 2, 2010 Posted in ENGAGEMENTS, PERSONAL, PORTRAIT, Uncategorized, WEDDINGS

We are at the beginning of the second decade in the 21st Century. I’m honestly not quite sure what to call it though. I’ve heard quite a few reporters refer to it as the “Teens,” which sounds rather trite to me. However, the second decade of the 21st Century does sound rather official. I’m sure we’ll figure out something to call it that doesn’t sound quite so silly. I mean, we have 10 whole years to think of a better name.

I should take the time to welcome you to the new I Love Wednesdays. It’s going through a bit of a revamp (the umpteenth one in it’s relatively young existence). I sometimes think that as designers we’re unfortunately afflicted with an inability to let our designs go, especially when they’re for ourselves, and I don’t think that I’m any different. But I Love Wednesdays, for me, is an evolutionary process, and I hope you’ll bear with me as I make the final adjustments for the new year. If you want to check out my old blog, you can still check it out here I can’t bring myself to take it down.

While I’m extremely excited about the year ahead, I took a little time to reflect on the year that was. It was certainly a much bigger year than I thought it would be, and I got to photograph some incredibly people, fashion and events.

Here are some of my favourite photos from last year. Hope you enjoy.
