Peter + Lisa’s Wedding Film

Peter & Lisa’s Wedding; What a joyous and intimate day! These guys were so at home with each other and everyone. I am so humbled to be a part of their journey together (see: PETER + LISA’S ENGAGEMENT SHOOT + PETER + LISA’S ENGAGEMENT PARTY); seeing it bloom from the very beginning stages. Can’t wait to keep doing life with these two. This is Jeremy’s (My hubster) first attempt at filming and editing, and boy did he do a fantastic job; imagine what you could do with more practice under your belt 😉 Thank you also to Leroy Corea for some of the footage. Enjoy guys, truly sums up the day and who they are as a couple! [NOTE: Lisa tripping in one of the scenes – we had to keep it because if you know Lisa, she’s clumsy ;)]

Wedding Date: Saturday, 20th June 2015
Location: Vietnamese Christian Church, Camira + Robelle Domain, Springfield Central QLD 4300

Ty + Maxine’s Wedding

The day had finally arrived! I remember catching up with Maxine quite a while ago when her and Ty had gotten engaged (Ty + Maxine’s Engagement Party), and the wedding seemed like a distant thing; but time is just flying by now that we’re all growing up, getting married and having kids etc! Such a beautiful day for what was torrential rain ALL WEEK!!! The heavens opened up and vibrant colours were streaming just in time for their wedding. I was able to capture the love and quirkiness of this awesome couple and their party of family and friends; good times were had by all! The bride was even still setting up the décor when it came to the reception! A modern flavour was added to the Chinese Tea Ceremony; such humble and sombre moments. Can’t wait to see this couple do amazing things now that their talents are under the one roof (Maxine has made the move to Melbourne to be with her hubby – makes total sense :P). Thanks for letting me document your memorable day Ty + Maxine, love you guys!

Winter in Queenstown

Seems to be an annual thing where we travel to different places during winter (see: Winter in Melbourne City). It’s something that is so needed for us as we get to pause on our busy schedules and fly away to spend some quality time without the extra buzz. I had never been to New Zealand before so off we went to the most tourist of all NZ destinations, Queenstown. By the time we landed, the snow was only covering the tips of the mountains; By the time we left the snow was about one-third down the mountains! The cold weather definitely took a turn fast (we were only there for 5 days)! Queenstown is naturally one of the most beautiful places I’ve been to yet; Crystal blue lake surrounded by gorgeous, green mountains. Because of Winter, the leaves were yellow, red warm colours and falling from the trees. We got to experience Fergburger & Fergbakery; oh man, their PIES are to die for!!! Also the local food and produce; we went on a River cruise farm & BBQ tour and visited Arrowtown. It was raining heavily by the time we visited Glenorchy, but we were still able to enjoy Queenstown and I was still able to take some snaps. We found a really cool trail on the side of a main road; litereally felt like we were in a scene from Twilight.Thank you Queenstown for your gorgeous, natural vibes & I hope you enjoy the snaps from this trip. Next Stop, AMERICA & EUROPE 2015-2016! Keep your eyes peeled!

P.S The very last photo is a collage of Jeremy crapping his pants on the sky rail (after that he was like a kid on the luge!)

Maxine’s Portfolio Shoot

This girl has the whole package – Is multi talented, has the looks, knows business & marketing, can draw and create…I could go on. Check out these images I had the pleasure of snapping around South Brisbane for her Website & Portfolio. Her art and product is clean, full of shapes, artistic, chic and modern; this is what I attempted to capture. I believe these shots portray Maxine and her style & product. I love that we still keep in contact after High School and can’t wait to capture Ty & Maxine’s wedding next month! She’s a keeper 😉 enjoy!

Varani Family Shoot

What a pleasure to see Jo + Hannah again after having done their Maternity Shoot! This time, little baby Mali is here! What a joy to capture the Varanis joined by Hannah’s mum and Jo’s brother! So great to see both sides uniting as one family with little baby Mali being the centre focus of their love. It’s been a rough past year for the Varani’s but having hope & love always in their midst encourages them to move forward together as a family! They really do ooze out His peace and presence in their everyday. Was so good to come back to the ranch where we shot their maternity photos the family home Hannah grew up in, and having their beloved animals joining in on some of the fun (cute dogs – also take note of Hannah’s 20 year old cat!). Some of the shots also included Mali wearing Hannah’s baby dress, such a cute tradition to pass down to your own daughter. The deer on top of the Block letter M is also a treasured figurine of Hannah’s when she was a little girl. Mali is also a super cutie and cannot wait to see their family extended! Thank you for letting me capture these moment Varanis!

Peter + Lisa’s Engagement Shoot

Swiftest. Engagement. Ever. I can say that because she’s my sister. It gets nauseating to watch (honeymoon period), but it is very cute! These 2 were made for each other; They giggle about EVERYTHING. This will be a wedding I am not shooting as I’ll be Maid of Honour and can’t wait to celebrate with Pete + Lisa all the way up to the big day! I am so happy she’s happy; Lisa is my best friend through life and am so blessed to have her as my sister also! I just know the events leading up to their wedding will be full of fun, laughter and many memories will be made (the Bridal party will make sure of it!). It’s been amazing watching you grow and Mature (kind of) into an amazing lady Lisa! Peter, you’re not bad also..kidding! I remember first meeting you and we instantly deemed ourselves unworthy in your presence! Absolutely love your heart for His Body and I am so happy to know my sister will be looked after + loved immensely by you. Love you guys and Enjoy!

Greg, Sally + Baylin Family Shoot

Cuteness. Overload. Greg and Sally made a mighty fine baby and can’t wait to see many more! Having been through the good and bad times together, we absolutely love this family. They’re the type of friends who tell you how it is, no prancing around – Love this! We have travelled overseas together, ministering until about 1am in the morning and started building the Young Adults Community at our church. We adore them and can’t wait to make more memories. Take note of Baylin; his facial expressions will melt your hearts! It even looks like his dribbling a mini basketball, taking after his mumma 😉

Enjoy these snaps!
