  • Jen & Hamish // Centennial Park wedding

    18 Comments

    I’m going to apologise in advance for the length of this post. I started picking photos from the lovely Jen & Hamish’s wedding and just couldn’t stop. I know this is going to sound cliche, but there was seriously a lot of love in this little corner of the world for their wedding. Even in spite of some hiccups with orders, Jen was the calmest bride and Hamish was the calmest groom I have ever seen.

    I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, they are the sweetest couple and thank you both for letting me be a part of your day.

  • THE CREATIVE ACT

    Sydney Fashion Photographer - Del Playa Drive Photoshoot. The creative act lasts but a brief moment, a lightning instant of give-and-take, just long enough for you to level the camera and to trap the fleeting prey in your little box. – Henri Cartier-Bresson

    I think these really are the perfect words to describe what we photographers do. In a sense we hunt out the perfect photo. I know that I wait for it, obsess about it, plan for it, but at the end of the day, it usually comes down to a second. A second here or there; and you end up with the perfect selection of photos or ones which are just ok.

    In a race, a second, or even a fraction of a second, really is the difference between coming first and last.

    Photography is the same.

    I always want to come first.

    I posted this loved up session 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!
