She Said Yes

I’ve always wanted to shoot an engagement proposal, and recently I got my chance on a beautiful Sunday morning at the Tulip Festival.

I was nervous for the groom, but this was all for nothing as everything went to plan! It was a beautiful moment, and I am honoured to have been there to capture it for the beautiful couple, Josh and Veronica.

Watch the first video a time-lapse of the magical moment and watch the second video for the extended edition.






Family Photoshoot - In beautiful tranquil Warrandyte

Recently I spent an afternoon with Ashlee, Dan and their daughter Xanthea at Warrandyte Pound Bend Reserve. If you haven’t visited and you like beautiful and tranquil surroundings, then it’s perfect for you. I was lucky enough to spend my teenage years growing up around this park. It's a beautiful place.

I’ll let the photos do the talking. What a beautiful place to capture a beautiful family.

A romantic stroll along the beach

Amy, Steve and their dog Shadow often take a gentle stroll along the beach after dinner.

Shadow is like a wind-up toy. Throw the ball, and he will keep bringing it back.

With Shadow occupied, it gave me a chance to capture a few moments between Amy and Steve.

Cake Smash Time

Some advice to all parents out there wanting to do a cake smash for their children:
It’s really hard when they can just get up and run away from the cake! Oscar is a very cute but very cheeky one year old who attempted a cake smash!

With some help from his older brother Gabriel, he eventually got the idea.

But somehow the cake smash turned into a dance party! Is big brother already a bad influence?

Well done little Oscar, you finally smashed the cake!

Let's take the kids to the park. It will be fun, they said!

Doesn’t the saying go, “you should never work with children or animals?” Well, I clearly failed that test!

But when you go against all advice, you get some awesome photos like this:

Well, at least they co-operated some of the time (this included dad!). Like father, like daughter?

But, kids will be kids and I wouldn’t want it any other way!

Happy 30th Madeleine

Madeleine recently celebrated her 30th birthday in style with an awesome party.

Madeleine’s brother and sisters sang her a birthday song which they wrote themselves. Impressive guys!

I brought along my new toy - portable photo printer. Madeleine got a box of awesome photos from the night with hand written messages from her friends and family. Her guests also got to take something home.
