This was special – I took photos for this sweet family just before Kat gave birth to their second son, and here I was able to capture them as a family of four, bub now a toddler. This is a very belated posting to our website though…toddler is now a pre-schooler, and big bro is about to start school!

It was a wonderful privilege to photograph this wedding the Summer before last (now very belatedly appearing on our public website!), for two people who are not just clients but friends. Even more so than during their engagement shoot I marvelled at how these two kids I used to know, grew up to be these wonderful adults, by God’s grace. It was also evident how much family and friends played a role in their lives, shaping who they are and bringing them to this point. And how blessed we were to still be able to gather and celebrate in the midst of a pandemic (before the next wave came), forgetting for a little while, and rejoicing in the moment. The wedding day is just the start of the journey, but I hope these photos will be a reminder of what a good start it was!

Sam was unavailable for the wedding shoot so I am very grateful to Vincy Lam of Vincy*S Photography for working alongside me for the day time components of the wedding, and to Mellisa Wang for assisting at the reception.

It was such a blessing to photograph these guys, back when it was my first session out of Covid lockdown (and yes it is veeery belatedly posted here). I love capturing those specials smiles and laughs between dad, mum and bub. I am always thankful for the privilege of doing this for families!

This was a special session for us. Kat has known these two a long time, in fact since they were still kids (and yes it does make us feel old!). To see them now, as two mature, wonderful, godly people about to embark on the journey of marriage together, and to be part of it as their photographers – what a joy and privilege. We can’t wait to capture the big day very soon… but for now, here are some photos from their engagement session. Enjoy!

We had the privilege of photographing Tyson and Renee’s wedding on a perfect Autumn afternoon in late May, surrounded by friends and family. We are doubly grateful that it all went ahead smoothly in these times. Editing these images during lockdown reminds us what a blessing it was to be able to gather freely and celebrate Renee and Tyson’s special day. We hope these photos will always bring back happy memories of that day, and that all the days to come are just as precious.

It was a privilege to take these family photos for dear friends, and we were lucky to get them in mere days before baby two arrived earlier than expected. Its a special time just before a new baby joins the family and I love capturing that anticipation! And with a second baby on the way, I love to snap those precious memories with the oldest child just before they become a big brother or sister!

I was so honoured to photograph Callan and Kat with their baby boy James, and some of Kat’s family. Sam and I had the privilege of photographing Callan and Kat’s wedding a number of years ago and its very special to get to come back and be entrusted with capturing memories of their growing family.

James and Sarah’s wedding was a family affair, with grandmas and aunts, mums and dads, as well as siblings, all chipping in to put it together – from the dress to the wedding cake! Not to mention friends playing their part to help with hair styling, catering, decorating and more! What a beautiful testimony to what James and Sarah mean to those around them. We were very thankful to be part of the day, documenting each moment and memory, and hope the images captured help cement it all in their minds and give them something to look back on years down the track. We wish James and Sarah God’s blessing for their journey as a married couple!

It was a joy to photograph the wedding of Will and Xerri, more than a year ago now, but belatedly appearing here! As you can imagine we attend a lot of weddings, whether as guests or photographers (or both!), but it remains so special each time we photograph those wedding vows, those looks between bride and groom, the joy between the couple when we are taking their portraits, and the emotion of the wedding speeches. Weddings often grant that opportunity to say the things we forget to say on a day to day basis and Will and Xerri’s wedding brought out lots of those heartfelt and tear-inducing moments. We are grateful to have been part of that special day, and pray for God’s blessing on a lifetime of days together.

Chris and Alice were married on a beautiful spring day in Sydney, surrounded by family and friends. From the start we knew it would be both an emotional and laughter filled day (of course every wedding is, but if you do a tissue count you’ll see what we mean). Chris and his groomsmen brought lots of laughs as they shared jokes and goofy games throughout the day, but the groom did not shy away from the raw emotion of the day either, as he spoke of his family and his new bride. It’s always a special privilege to see family bonds reflected on and new ones forged afresh on these occasions, as we are invited into an intimate setting as ‘strangers’ but trusted as friends to capture it all. Also worth mentioning was the gorgeous garden surrounds of the location photos and reception, providing a beautiful, lush backdrop both outside and inside. Topped off with some soft afternoon light it couldn’t have been more perfect. We hope the images below go just a little way towards remembering and cherishing the day that was, and more importantly, the marriage that is!
