Nat & Bryn's Wedding

Nat & Bryn's wedding day was a lot of fun with beautiful weather conditions and a beautiful couple - making a wonderful day. The whole bridal party were such fun and very easy to work with, albeit a few cheeky personalitites in there- groom included! Actually it was hard to capture a moment when Bryn wasn't smiling all day long.. It's so great to see!

Honestly , you guys were brilliant to work with and made my job so enjoyable.

Anyway.. on to a few images:

Natalie: watching Bryn , watching her.


The very photogenic and fun bridal party





Nat & Bryn, thankyou for letting me be a part of your special day.
Love ' n Laughter
..................Treasure the moments.

Boys will be.. Boys

.. or is that monkeys?
These guys.. ok one or two in particular were extremely amusing to watch as they got up to all sorts of antics on the dance floor. And once they knew they were being watched they turned it on even more!..Lot's of fun.. like watching monkeys behind the glass at the zoo. ( No offense intended guys!)
The funniest thing... after i snapped off this shot from the other side of the glass window and preceded to show them as they eagerly awaited with faces ( and .. err.. fur ) pushed against the glass window for me to show them.....little did they know, that the term photographers use for looking at a shot in the back of a camera is known as " Chimping" .. i kid you not!
Hilarious.

So just a little lesson to all those aspiring entertainers out there.... when there's a camera about.. LOOK OUT! LOL

Great fun,

Nic

New: Sexy & Sophisticated Album

A couple of months ago i added the new Asuka deluxe version of their Coffee Table book as an album option in my wedding packages. Today i received my sample album , so here are a few pics to show it off.
It's sleek.
It's sophisticated.
It's elegant.
It's sexy.

This beautiful album comes in it's own designer cover which doubles as a box. Beautiful ,glossy and sturdy....mmm. I like it!
This is the back of the cover.
Side view shows couple's name. This box is about an inch in depth and is just lovely! It opens up like a clamshell.
Plain black leather-like cover. Sleek! Comes with silver hot stamped names. An upgrade to full leather is available.



So there's a quick preview of my latest sample book. Definately gotta see this one first hand..
Oh and you may have recognised that gorgeous couple featured in this book.. that's Jess & Shane's wedding i photographed in September.Watcha think guys? Looks pretty schmickooooo!

Hiptop!

Yesterday i decided to purchase a must-have new phone to keep me up to date and completely in contact wherever i go. A bit of a 'yuppy' indulgence purchase.....but seriously ....I did need it..
Now i can keep up to date with those all important emails, can direct clients to parts of my website without having to verbally do so..quick click into album companies for updates .... yadda yadda yadda... there. Justified. Even if only in my eyes.

So while it might seem like a bit of a 'toy' right now with having these cool features at my fingertips 24/7, it really is going to be helpful while i am on the road for extended hours. You know.. somebody might desperately need me and has only managed to try to contact me via email.

So i signed up for my new Hiptop Scarlet phone (toy) and while i was at it added one in my purchase for my daughter, who was asolutely OVERJOYED to receive it. You know, cos .. all the kids at school want one... and OMG now i have one!!! So does my eldest son.. but ..never mind, he can have my old phone ;) .. it was less than a year old anyway.
Now i'm not playing favourites here!... Cameron got a really shmicko laptop for his birthday this year so he has no room for complaints!

C'mon Mum -Hurry UP!

What do you do when you want to take some pics of your daughter, who just doesnt want to have pics taken at that time ??? ( I interupted her chatting online..such a horrible Mum i am)
Well i decided to make her sit through just a few before i gave up. Atleast i made some effort.. can't say the same for somebody else.. not mentioning any names!

Just to prove i kept my word and would take more pics these holidays.......



Yay i actually got a smile from her for this one.......

Album Design Awards

Remember ages ago i mentioned i had won awards for album design? And once again i neglected to follow that up and post about the trip away to collect them. Sorry. (But i have been busy!)
Anyway, on a photography forum i participate in , it seems another member discovered an advertisement in Australian Photography Magazine sept 08 edition announcing the two first place winners.
So here is the advert.. that's me on the right and Kirsten on the left. Woohoo fame! LOL

Thanks for looking!
