Elvina & John – Brisbane Wedding

Grant — Fri, 20 Jan 2012 08:17:32 +0000

This was my last wedding for 2011 and what a blast it was, being just prior to Christmas!!

Elvina & John came from Melbourne to tie the knot in front of a very large group of family and friends who came from all parts of the world to celebrate this very special occasion. Being a Tongan wedding their were many traditions throughout the day and this was fantastic being apart of the day. Two of the traditions at a wedding is the Mat is used for when the bride is getting ready and the exchange of mats – A tradition of a Tongan wedding is the gifting of fine mats and food. The offerings of Kola (Treasures) are made throughout the wedding feast by the bride & grooms family…….

As I said it was a great day with a beautiful ceremony at the Wesley Kangaroo Point Uniting Church, and everyone had lot’s of fun and laughs, great food and dancing. Below are just a few photos from the day!!!

Thanks Elvina & John for having me as your photographer :0)

Sara & William – Brisbane Wedding

Grant — Sun, 04 Dec 2011 00:46:42 +0000

I recently had the pleasure of capturing Sara & Williams big day in and around Brisbane. The day was just full of sunshine and happiness right through out the whole day with the ceremony being held at Brett’s Wharf in Hamilton. I thought this would be my last wedding at Breets wharf because it was due to be closed in January 2012 due to road widening of kingsford Smith Drive, but now has a reprieve until sometime in 2015. It was a beautiful location for the ceremony and a great day was had by all…:0)

I hope that you both had a great time on your honeymoon in Hawaii… :0)

Michelle & Nick – Brisbane Wedding

Grant — Mon, 21 Nov 2011 08:25:30 +0000

I recently had the pleasure in shooting the wedding of Michelle and Nick. They chose the 11/11/11 at the Brisbane Registry to tie the knot and the ceremony finished at 10.59 just in time for the 11am and the minute silence. We had a little time after the ceremony and before the reception to take a few location photos, but first Nick picked up some Sushi and with Michelle’s family who arrived in from China a few days earlier and a mini bus we all headed down to New Farm Park for lunch. It was quite nice to have a little extra time than the usual to shoot the location photos!!

We headed back to the Stamford Plaza Hotel for both the boys and girls to make a wardrobe change before the reception got underway at the Bavarian Bier Cafe in Eagle Street.

Stars for a morning. We had channel 7 and channel 9 filming for an 11/11/11 segment. It was a full house in terms of equipment..

A hard earned beer for the boys at the Stamford before walking to the reception

Congratulations once again guys, and I hope that you’re wedding and Reception in China on the weekend went well and that everyone had as much fun as the Brisbane Wedding :0)

Thank you for making me apart of your day!!!

Tanya & Mike – Brisbane Wedding

Grant — Sat, 19 Nov 2011 14:17:33 +0000

Anna and myself had the pleasure to attend our very good friends Tanya & Mikes wedding as guests, but I couldn’t help myself to at least take a few photos of the couple in question. They had a late Tuesday afternoon ceremony at Eves On The River in Teneriffe and apart from being a little windy the ceremony was very beautiful. After a little stroll across the road for a few location photos, and then it was back to Eves On the River for the reception – I must say the Kangaroo and Eye Fillet was just to die for!!!

Guys, I hope that your almost 4 weeks in Thailand is relaxing and fun, and Anna and myself look forward to catching up on your return.

The day that the Ophthalmologist marries the Audiologist :0) Wow what a day – I recently had the pleasure to capture the day of David and Sarah in Brisbane. I met with the boys at home, and Sarah’s & David’s Sausage dog Bento who was kitted out in his own tuxedo and looked the part. We all had a lovely day with Lot’s of laughter, love, and fun, with some very funny moments. I had a little accident with a garden hose and the boys took over the shooting for a few minutes. David is an avid photographer and knows his way around a Canon 5D – Some funny photo’s taken!!!

I then met up with the girls at the Marriott and the girls were very relaxed and chilled out while getting ready, and then after a few quick photos I headed off to St Marys at Kangaroo Point to meet up with the boys again before the ceremony.

After a few location photos, we headed off to the classy Customs House for the reception… :0)
