The first time I met Julienne and Dave was at Thu and Bao's wedding - the second wedding I ever photographed. Julienne was one of Thu's bride's maids and I noted that she and her beau, Dave (a.k.a Rugged Dave, as she liked to call him), were a pretty fun and not to mention good looking couple - at that time, they had only been dating for a few months. Despite that, I was determined to photograph their wedding day; if they were ever to marry. After a few years, I was elated to find that Julienne had finally emailed me; telling me that she was keen on having me take her wedding photographs. I did a bit of a celebratory fist pump. I suppose my prodding-Thu-to-get-Julienne-to-contact-me-if-she-were-to-ever-get-married worked. But incidentally, Julienne had been following my work ever since I started. Wow, humbled.

After having shot their engagement session a few months prior to their wedding (well in fact, prior to their official engagement *wink*) - I knew that David and Julienne were going to celebrate their wedding in style (yes, I would still call it classy despite the groom's men doing a Maccas run during the bridal party portrait session). Alas we had a ton of fun. Not only were the bridal party members rocking but also we had the amazing Santo and Ferry from the award winning Papercranes team grace us with their awesomeness!

The photographs speak for themselves; the day was filled with so much joy. It was definitely a celebration. Indeed a memorable start to the beginning of their lives as husband and wife.

Who knew that you would find your future husband/wife on the train at peak hour?

April and Jared absolutely adore one another: the sort of love and affection that is infectious. Yet, the maturity and commitment that they show surpass their age by decades and yet they shower young and giddy affection to one another. They absolutely love animals - My mind boggles at the thought of  how many pets they have - the last time I counted (through truly ole' facebook) they had a kitten named Rowan, mice and a bird called Hervey - ironically they all live together quite harmoniously. They love baking (April + Jared - not the animals *wink*). Going on dates. Taking happy snaps. Connecting with their Connect group from church. And knowing Jesus. They are surrounded by loving, supportive and hospitable friends and family: It was amazing to witness and document the union of these two families on their wedding day - there was soo much love! Heck, I even felt like I was part of the family!

Thank you for allowing me to be part of the beginning of your lives together! You guys are incredibly blessed!

I met Alisha and Wilson briefly last year at a RICE REGENERATE event. A few months earlier they had sent me an email, inquiring about my services, however they never got back to me. So being the slightly obnoxious, forward and impulsive person I am, I put them on the spot... "So... Have you guys found a photographer yet? No? Ahh, I know of this photographer who can do a pretty good job..." *wink wink, nudge nudge* Literally. Two weeks later we met up at a cafe and had a great time getting to know one another. I suppose being slightly obnoxious, forward and impulsive pays off sometimes. Sometimes!

Alisha and Wilson are sweet. They met through youth group and have been an item ever since. We frolicked around one lovely overcast afternoon at Pyrmont and Callan Park in Rozelle. From the few short hours we spent shooting, I noticed how sweet, loving, thoughtful and generous they are. They even refused to drop me off outside the centre where I parked my car, but rather, drive into the centre and drop me off right at my car - it was such an inconvenience, and yet they went out of their way anyway. Love it! I am really looking forward to shooting their wedding in June. I will also be shooting her sister's wedding a few months after as well! Bring it!
