Terri and James

We photographed Terri and James last Saturday. Their ceremony held at the "Holy Spirit Church" in Ringwood North was beautiful.



It was an extremely hot day, and after the ceremony and family photos, Terri and James were happy to escape to the vines (at Elmswood Estate Winery) and relax with a glass of wine and some shade. It is in this natural state that we were able to capture some beautiful shots of the two of them.






This little usher, Roman, couldn't get enough of the grapes, and kept disappearing during the photo sessions to eat a few more...

Stockade 08

You may have wondered why it's been a couple of weeks since I last blogged... Well my energies had been focused on preparing this State wide Ranger camp that was held over the long weekend at Hillcrest.


The camp was fantastic, and well worth the effort. We have placed a number of images in our gallery (events) and all purchase profits will go towards Rangers Victoria for the purpose of equipping the outposts. More images will be added soon as Jane Sheppard kindly visited the camp to take some photographs for us too.

Here are just a few of my favorites.

The Gift

Just shot some promo images for "The Gift" a production that will be featured at Impact 08. The Gift was written by the extremely talented and "gifted" Luke Anderson.


How cool is that light?!

Rochelle and Christophe

What a beautiful day this turned out to be. With the usual Melbourne forcast suggesting rain and wind, we were prepared with umbrellas and indoor backup plans. But as usual, the weather man is not to be trusted and the sun broke through the clouds and created some beautiful diffused lighting during the location shots.



I want to thank "A Nostalgic Collection". This company was one of the best to work along side when it comes to cars. Also, Twisted Ivy in Emerald did a wonderful job with the flowers and decorations.

Rochelle was just gorgeous. This is one of my favorite soft, natural shots of her.


Rochelle's sister's were also stunning. I love the eyes in this shot.


And one full of emotion...




This lane way was just fantastic!


Thanks to the driver who pointed us in the direction of this wall being painted.

Caroline's Photo Shoot

I was honored to photograph the beautiful Caroline McNeil last night. We went to Emerald Lake Park for this special photo session. The air was humid, the sun hiding beneath the clouds, perfect actually for beautiful soft lighting to capture the real "Caroline".
