day & james were married in the north west wind on the sandstone beach in front of the beautiful seabreeze lodge. What an amazing ceremony! The gods were present, i'm sure - kicking off the celebration with full force. Gusts of wind, waves crashing & sea spray flying along with all the love, joy & delight of everyone gathered there to witness their union. There was a lot of great fun & exuberance, & wrapped within that, these lovely still, quiet moments of deep love & connection. Enjoy...
see what i mean about sea spray! james & his best man - now that was fun to photograph... & i love that day had a man-of-honour. The delight of bending tradition... & james' daughter made the most beautiful flower girl. It's heart warming to see kids play such a big part in a couples wedding.
I fell in love with photographs when I was a child, spending hours pouring over old family albums (probably when i was supposed to be tidying my room) - intrigued by the stories captured in those still frames, the people and places they held. Photography still fascinates me for much the same reason. I approach my work as i approach life... with dedication and wonder, a sense of discovery and joy, and a good dose of humour to keep even the challenges light. When working, i stay in the background, capturing events as they unfold rather than directing the movement of the day. In this way, the images reflect the truth and spirit of the day. Candid and uncontrolled, the photographs speak of the people they capture and the feeling of the moments they hold. Shots that demand a little organizing are arranged in an easy-going manner, with a spirit of sharing and fun. When photographing babies, children & families, I follow small (and large) clients around as they play and connect. Each session is more like a play-date or shared family-time, and before you know it, as you all settle into the fun, you won't even know you're being photographed!
