Ferron & Tia Wedding

Sunday, August 31st, 2008

Hey All,

I’ve had a bit of a technical hiccup with my laptop.. basically it’s died and I need a new one (great timing) so the slideshow with Ferron & Tia’s weddings photos won’t actually be up and running until *very* early tuesday morning unless I can pick up a good cheap laptop while I’m here in Sydney. My most sincere apologies about this issue. I’ve got all the photos downloaded and I’ve had a look through them.. there are some awesome shots!

This is also going to affect Terry and Sita’s wedding later today unfortunately, their slideshow will also go up late Monday night / Early Tuesday morning. I’ll put them in seperate blog posts so that you can just go to their own blog and check out the photos.

If you want to subscribe to my blog by clicking on this link then you will recieve an email notification when I put the slideshow up in my blog! That way you don’t have to keep checking back (although you are more than welcome to).

Again my apologies to everyone. Thank you Ferron & Tia for having me be apart of your special day, it was a great day and I really enjoyed meeting both yourselves and your families!

Regards

Update!

Saturday, August 30th, 2008

Hey All,

Sorry for the delays between posts lately.. it has been insanely busy. I’ve got 2 weddings this weekend due to a change of date on one of the weddings.. not something I usually like to do. Today I have a wedding on the Gold Coast, with a photoshoot around either Sanctuary Cove or somewhere on the Spit at the Gold Coast, should be some awesome shots to be had.

After the wedding tonight we fly out of the Gold Coast down to Sydney for one of my mate’s weddings, of course he asked me to do the photography, which I’m more than happy to do. The wedding is in Cambelltown with a photoshoot in a park near by. After the reception we’re heading into the city to get some photos around the opera house and harbor bridge, should be some classic shots.

I will be aiming to get a slideshow up of the wedding that I shoot today, later tonight, probably do the editing on my laptop on the plane and then upload it to the blog by morning. Then I’ll have another slideshow up sometime in the early hours of Monday morning. A very busy weekend!

I’ve been looking around at other photographers work and prices and decided that there are some truely overpriced photographers out there! I’m not sure how Gary Fong does it, but he manages to charge US$120,000 per wedding.. I don’t get that per year, let alone per wedding! What’s really strange is that people book him at that price! http://www.storybookweddings.com/pricing3589/coverage.html

Anyway, I’ve included a few shots from my recent trip to PNG, please let me know if you are interested in prints of any of them, I’ll get them done through RedBubble, so you can get them as cards, matted prints, mounted prints (look awesome) and Framed prints.

Stefan & Amy’s Wedding – 17th August

Sunday, August 17th, 2008

Hi All,

Well we had an awesome day today, spent the day shooting a wedding for a great couple called Stefan and Amy. It was an early start up at the Roebig’s place, getting photos of the girls getting ready, then back to Strathpine for the ceremony. The first photoshoot was at Caboulture Historical Village, some great shots from that area, I’ll be editing some of them and putting them up fairly soon. The reception was also held at Caboulture Historical Village in a lovely wooden hall. After the reception we did a photo shoot with just the bride and groom up at the glass house mountains. Some great shots from the Maleny ranges pointing towards the glass house mountains.

Here’s the slideshow:

Feel free to leave comments for Stefan and Amy. I’ll be posting some photos from our recent trip to Papua New Guinea in the next couple of days too!

Thank you to the Roebigs and the Adams for having me at their wedding, it’s an honor to be apart of your special day!

Regards
