Michelle & Scott's Pregnancy Shots

Yesterday we met up again with Michelle and Scott who came down from Auckland to have some Maternity Images captured at 34 weeks pregnant. We photographed Michelle and Scott's wedding back in February 2007 and it was really great to catch up with them both again. Can't wait to photograph 'bump' when he/she arrives guys.

Here's a few of my fav's.

Baby Cooper Baby Portrait

This afternoon Corina and Jonny came to the studio with their 10 week old son Cooper. The boy did well and had us all in stitches right from the word off with the biggest poo I have ever seen!

Cara & Stefan's Wedding at Mystery Creek Hamilton

Well....what a day we had last Saturday at Cara & Stefan's wedding at Mystery Creek, Hamilton.

One thing I love about weddings is that they are all different, and given many of my images have a light hearted approach, this wedding was just up my street. Cara did not have Bridesmaids, she had Bridesmen, Dan and Les. Stefan also had one Groomswoman, Shelley, breaking with tradition and having friends close to them on the sides of the Bride and Groom that they wanted, you gotta love that.

Have a great time in Thailand guys, see you when you get back!

Chelsea & Chris's Wedding at Gem Pier Williamstown

Yesterday I had the pleasure of photographing Chelsea and Chris's Wedding at Gem Pier - the site Chris proposed.

Melbourne was hot and humid (38 degrees) before the southerly change came through to 'kind of' cool us down and I trust the many New Zealanders who made the journey across from Wellington were not too uncomfortable.

Chris and Chelsea, have a great honeymoon! Your photos will be posted as soon as you return.

Cheers,

Frank

Christy & Lance's Wedding in Te Kuiti, New Zealand

On Friday (the 13th of all dates) I flew to Auckland to meet clients, photograph Christy and Lance's Wedding on the Saturday and even help Steve take some pics at the Round the Bridges Run in Hamilton, Sunday.

Anyway onto Saturday. After photographing the gorgeous bride Christy at her parents' house, I journeyed on the bus along with many of the guests to the ceremony location - better than trying to find the ceremony myself I thought and an opportunity to mingle. Then it was time to photograph Christy and Lance's ceremony and take their group photos.

We returned to the Otorahanga Club for their reception after a little stop to take some more photos at the viaduct.

Here are some photos to wet your appetite guys. I will post the finished product across the Tasman in about 10 days.

Thanks for a great day - you were a very easy couple to photograph. Once more, congratulations and enjoy your honeymoon.

Round The Bridges 2009 - Hamilton New Zealand

Yesterday Frank (my Business Partner from Melbourne) and I photographed the 2009 Hamilton Round The Bridges event for the organisers. The first image is of Frank, we worked him to the bone, lugging all the camera s and stuff! Cheers Frank for your awesome help and images and glad you got back to Melbourne safely.Here are a few from the thousand plus images we captured.

Jaclyn & Jason's Wedding at St Peter's Cathedral Hamilton

On Saturday we photographed Jaclyn and Jason's wedding at St Peter's Cathedral Hamilton. An excellent day was had by all and the bridal party photos were captured at Hamilton Gardens and Mystery Creek, the latter was their wedding reception venue.

Have a great Honeymoon in the Philippines guys.

Rebecca & Leigh's Wedding at Lawson Lodge, Macedon

On Saturday I had the pleasure of photographing another beautiful couple's wedding, Rebecca and Leigh at Lawson Lodge in Macedon, Victoria.

Bec and Leigh have been together for many years considering their tender years and they have 2 gorgeous children to prove it. Couples likes these two are loads of fun and it shows in their photos (my back is still recovering from the golf cart ride - maybe I should have drank something stronger than water after all Leigh!).

All the same, their day like the other weddings one2one completed this weekend, was picture perfect.

Congratulations Bec and Leigh.

Frank is coming to NZ

My great friend and business partner Frank Vlahos arrives from Melbourne tomorrow to photograph Christy and Lance's wedding in Otorohanga on Saturday. He has also been hired to assist me with the 'Round The Bridges Run' on Sunday in which one2one Photography are the official photographers for the event. I will be cycling around the event, hopefully ahead of the 6 and 12km runners to capture the iconic Hamilton images.

Michelle & Mike's Wedding on Waiheke Island

And after Bec's and Harry's wedding I flew back to NZ in order to photograph Michelle and Mike's wedding yesterday at Stoney Ridge Winery on Waiheke Island. Why a wedding on a Wednesday? Yesterday was exactly 5 years to the day that they first dated, awwww bless. A very in love perfect for each other couple, both beautiful inside and out.

I was also able to enjoy their reception dinner (thanks guys) on a table with Michelle and James, a couple that I photographed their wedding a short while ago - did Michelle make me laugh!

Steve, officially now knackered ;-)
