I had a secret. I was going to be photographing a wedding on Dudley Beach, and it was a SECRET!
A couple of weeks ago i had an email from Tracy asking me if i was available for a portrait session on 20th December. Yes i replied. I heard nothing back until about 6 days ago. Was i still available? Yes i replied, and procedded to book Tracy's portrait session in. Oh bye the way Nic, it's a wedding and a secret! is that ok?
Umm... YES!!!
And so began a brand new friendship with Tracy & Ken and an exciting time of them disclosing the details of their wedding and keeping a secret that i was bubbling over with enthusiasm for.
You see, only 3 people besides the beautiful couple were in the ' know' about this secret. Katie, the celebrant, Daniel the incognito guitarist, and myself.
As Ken told me the plan for the morning he let me know he had his own little secrets that he was keeping form his bride as well as all their families.
Ken had secretly changed his vows. He was to sing a funky little song to Tracy, and be joined by strolling beach clad guitarist Daniel Arvidson.
So a wonderful morning of suprises and love was spent on Dudley Beach. A couple and their Familes were united in a beautiful and joyous ceremony that i will forever remember.
Ken & Tracy, thankyou so much for allowing me to be a part of your most romantic and beautiful day. Your love for each other is an amazing force that i am certain will shine forever.
Here is your preview slideshow, enjoy!

Goodbye Anissa & Georges!
My lovely friends Anissa & Georges return to Belgium this week. I haven't known them for long.. just a few months when we met at the Latin Dance classes i attend.
About a month ago i did a sunrise beach shoot with them ( you can check more about that here)
I decided to make a small farewell slideshow of them from their photo session. The song 'Lost' is their chosen bridal dance track which they will dance to when they marry early next year.
I'm going to miss this fun young couple so much, and maybe our paths will cross again somewhere in the future! Let's hope so anyway.
Enjoy:)

Wedding - Teresa & Brett - Mega Post
Well this one's going to be a bigger blog post than usual, featuring the wedding of Teresa & Brett.
All i can say is THESE GUYS WERE FUN!
The wedding took place on September 26th at Rafferty's Resort, at Cam's Wharf in Lake Macquarie.
The start of the day was quite worrisome with our second dust storm in the area within 3 days. I spent many hours in the morning prior to the start of photographing Teresa watching the sky, checking weather updates and just hoping all would be well.The ceremony was taking place right on the edge of the lake, and the winds were not being overly kind, but atleast the rain held off!
Teresa & Brett, thankyou for inviting me into your lives to capture your special day. It's one i'll always remember with a smile on my face. You are beautiful people to be around.
Here are some of the images captured from the day and it was hard to pick just a few to show. Enjoy!
The beautiful bride, Teresa
Now Brett decided to do something a little bit different for his wedding - he wanted his own bit of limelight with a special arrival at the ceremony...by boat! Yes.. even though the winds were gusting i set off with the guys for a trip across the lake and back to give the boys a special arrival to the cheers of the gathered guests. It was choppy out there but so much fun!
Here are the boys on the boat.. now i know it looks calm here...we were infact being sheltered by Pulbah island for a few photos before heading back into the winds and chop to head to the ceremony.
I love their special little cufflinks!
The view of the guests awaiting , from the boat
and check them out.. the boys grand entrance!
I have to say the weather really was great in the end.. the skies were SO cooperative!
This was so funny... please note NO PELICANS WERE INJURED DURING THE MAKING OF THESE IMAGES!. Really the guys just ran very slowly out towards the pelicans..i mean how fast can a bride run in a wedding dress and heels on a jetty?!
There was plenty of fun and laughter to be had during our photo session time and i can't wait for Teresa & Brett to see all the fun in their images.
The whole day was fabulous but the reception was just as wonderful if not better...
Teresa & Brett opted to do a different style of dance rather than a traditional bridal waltz. I wa sso impressed with their routine the came up with themselves- complete with a little Michael Jackson and an awesome hat! Check Brett out!
