Katya & Trevor – 9th May 2010

Filed under: Uncategorized — admin @ 2:06 am

Katya and Trevor were married on May 9th. It was a small wedding with just close friends and family present .

Trevor was eagerly awaiting the arrival of his bride.

Katya looked magnificent in her beaded gown.

The ceremony took place at the Russian Orthodox Church in Woolloongabba.

Our photo shoot was at The Botanic Gardens in Mt Tamborine.

With no bridal party we were able to capture the intimacy and love between Katya and Trevor.

Before making our way to the reception we stopped at the lookout to take in the amazing sunset.

The reception dinner was held at the Tatra Winery. www.tatrawinery.com.au

With their friends and family by their side the newlyweds celebrated with traditional Polish/Russian fare.

Congratulations Katya & Trevor! All the best for the future.

Claude and Sangeeta's Wedding Day 28th November 2009

Filed under: Claude & Sangeeta, Uncategorized — admin @ 2:50 pm

Claude and Sangeeta had a traditional Indian Hindu wedding ceremony.

The bride who got ready at her parents  home, wore a traditional and very beautiful sari.

She was also adorned with jewelry and henna tattoos.

The ceremony took place at The Greek Orthodox Hall in Mt Gravatt.

The religious ceremony which takes several hours was witnessed by around 350 guests.

Because there is not alot of opportunity for romantic photos of the couple during a traditional Hindu ceremony,

We  like to take the couple to Roma St Parklands www.romastreetparklands.com.au for a more intimate photo shoot.

With Claude in a suit and Sangeeta in a more casual sari, they were able to relax more.

As we wandered through the rainforest we captured the happy couples’ love for each other.

We had alot of fun with them, as they were quite playful.

The weather was perfect for a day in the parklands.

Claude and Sangeeta are a really lovely couple and it was a real treat to be apart of their beautiful wedding.
