Anna + Nick {engaged}

There is so much fun to be had in this cooler weather. Autumn is just awesome and Im not saying that because I happen to have my birthday in the gorgeous season. The trees show so much life as they shed their summer leaves. I was so happy when Nick and Anna booked in their engagement session last month. I had previously done another engagement shoot in the Carlton gardens and I was worried the two shots would look similar but I couldn’t have been more wrong. The park had a completely different feel with its Autumn glow and the cooler temperature was good excuse for my couple to snuggle in closer. Nick and Anna were amazing! I still cant believe how lucky I am to have such fantastic couples.

Roman + Indi

I love photographing kids. My philosophy is to just let them play and eventually if you wait long enough their true colours shine through and the smiles are plentiful. It often helps if you have something to bribe with too for a little co-operation. I usually use my polaroid camera for this…. its a hard bargain a photo for a photo but it usually works and they have something tangible to take home from the shoot. Roman and Indi are pretty amazing kids and a true reflection of their kind mum. I really hope I get work with them again!

Michelle + Luke {married}

Michelle and Luke’s beautiful day was made even more special by the surroundings they call home and their wonderful friends and family. There was something very honest about this wedding. Michelle and Luke had ditched all the fuss that usually goes into ones big day to focus on what was really important to them. Their beautiful dogs joined the couple as they walked up the aisle (aka dirt road) and were welcomed guests at the ceremony. The wind made its statement early on in the day but by the time the reception had rolled around the weather couldn’t have been better. A gorgeous sunset in the vines ended what was a amazing day.

Winnie + Jo

Just before the weather cooled off I did an engagement with 2 good friends of mine. Back in Gippsland we decided to have a little bit of a country theme to contrast with their beach wedding coming up at the end of the year. These 2 already have two little ones of their own, Ryder and Emmy who naturally crashed the shoot with their goregousness! The best thing about a shoot with friends is that its a great excuse to catch up:)
