Firstly, it was raining. Never having had a rainy wedding to photograph, I admit I was a smidge nervous. The gorgeous Bride, Carmen, didn't have a worry in the world. Nor did she have a back-up in case of wet weather! Heavens to mergatroid, talk about giving the photog a heart attack.
Getting ready at her parents place was great, their beautiful home provided a wonderful back drop with amazing pieces I could work with to create some really personal images. Carmens flowers were nothing short of breath-taking ( Provided by Natasha's Floral Design 0448892233, they were seriously gorgeous!) . Purple traditional lillies.. have never seen any in real life before. Just a beautiful, unique touch to the day...
All was fine, and we just worked around the rain and went to a plan B or C. After a beautiful ceremony, we headed for the photos and it was lovely not to rush and just have some fun with Luke, Carmen and their bridal party. Oh, and the drivers!
The reception... was an absolute HOOT, although so lovely and casual with a couch, marshmallow corner and loads of glorious finger foods and cocktails. Carmens family are the best bunch of dancers I have ever seen! Auntie Barb below is displaying just one of her moves that rocked the joint. If they had a break for a drink, and then heard a song they liked, MANY Aunts would BOLT to the dance floor and go for it like nobody was watching. Everyone was just having the best time, it was hard not to feel the joy!
Carmen and Luke, thank you for allowing me to photograph this beautiful occasion. I had a wonderful time and it really is an honour for me to be chosen for this very important job!
PS - Special shout out to Nigel Constable who was most unimpressed that he had not featured on my blog, which he apparently visits every day? See the photo-booth collage of the gorgeous pose he did JUST to get on here!!
