Jade & Matthew - July 2008

Some people may remember this young man who was a regular face on television in a long running sitcom here in Australia called Hey Dad (see You tube post below), and numerous television commercials. Matthew Krok married his beautiful bride, Jade last saturday. I was asked to cover the wedding by both sets of mothers as I had covered weddings for their respective daughters in unrelated weddings a few years previously. I was happy to do so and found Matthew and Jade to be so relaxed and warm. Inspite of the cold that was evident by the mottling of the skin and the strong breeze, they were so unfazed and so pleased to be married. It is unique to see such devotion to each other. They truly only had eyes for each other. The sun only peeked through the clouds occasionally on the day, and we went to La Perouse and Port Botany for pictures. They caused a bit of a flutter at KFC Drive through when they went thru on the way to the picture taking. It was interesting. They are a special couple and I was pleased to be of service to them in this photographic capacity. They are both great people and I look forward to watching their future together blossom and grow. The catering was done by one of Matthew's aunties, Linda, and the food was superb. The presentation and service from the young ladies involved was everything and more I have seen at the big end of town receptions and It was also a little surreal to be at their reception at Greenwich in Sydney's North, to see a number of young families whose weddings I had covered some years ago. I think I am getting old! or am I already there? Have a great time in Thailand and thank you for choosing me to cover your day Jade and Matthew.

Holly & Spencer - June 2008

Holly & Spencer are a wonderful couple who wanted images that were different and out of the ordinary. It was a different wedding from the norm I cover, and I loved the uniqueness of their day which caused me to "look" at their day with "new" eyes.
I loved the variety and challenge that the difference created. They got married in Carlingford and then went their separate ways to their respective homes to get properly attired and coiffed for their photo shoot and reception. Some 5 hours later the Groom and his men arrived at the brides house, where they all hopped in the Limo and went to La Perouse in the city's eastern most outskirts and had some amazing pictures. I experimented with silhouettes and came up with a couple of winning shots I believe. I am very proud and pleased with these images. The reception was held at Victoria House in Bexley. I found them to be a wonderful couple and enjoyed creating these images for them. I know they will have a life filled with joy and happiness. They both knew what they wanted and got it! Thanks for choosing me and Timeline to cover your special day, Have fun in Thailand!! They have almost 800 images in total, some of which I have shared here today.
