All those who know me, know my love for the colour red. And it was the red shoes that Felicity was wearing as a guest to Michelle and Andre’s wedding almost 2 years ago that caught my attention. I had to photograph them almost immediately! They were so cute! So when I turned up at Balmoral Beach last Sunday for a portrait session with the newly engaged Michelle and Lincoln and their two girls, they knew there would be a big smile on my face with all the red clothing that was present!

Lincoln and I have been chatting on Facebook since that wedding and it was so exciting to see how their relationship progressed to the next level – especially hearing about the designing of the ring! I love getting to know their clients and really understand the story that leads to their wedding day.

We spent a beautiful winter’s afternoon at Balmoral beach. I honestly felt a part of the family as I was welcomed with big hugs from Gelly and Fi. I believe that being a part of the session is just as important as capturing what is happening. Everyone has to feel comfortable.

I am looking forward to your two-day wedding in October and learning more about the Vietnamese culture!

After months of trying to get the right weather we were blessed with an absolutely magical autumn afternoon at the Norman Lindsay Gallery Gardens. For 90 minutes we all played in the gardens with bubbles, a tea set and the fallen leaves. Oh and we read a great book too! Thank you to the Reeves family for sharing such a great afternoon with me – LOVED being a part of your family!

The last time I saw Louise and Ben before the wedding was when Louise was pregnant and what a beautiful little family they have now! This day was filled with so much joy and especially for the love of family. I also met the best flowergirls I have ever come across. I told the parents I wanted to hire them every weekend! Dylan, Louise and Ben’s little boy was also very good and he had the cheekiest smile! Please enjoy the story of their wedding day – fireworks, cheeky kids and goldfish! Church was St Patrick’s Cathedral Parramatta, location photos at Old Government House and the surrounds of Parramatta Park. Reception was at Skyview Liverpool.

Natalia and Con and their little boy Lucas enjoyed a fun time by the Georges River despite the invasion of mosquitoes half way through the session. Lucas put on a great show for his young age of 9 months and has the cheekiest smile! I wish you guys all the best and look forward to the Wedding and Christening in March this year.
