This is a first for me, Nik usually writes all the blog posts but I did this wedding on my own so it’s all up to me…. sorry in advance.
I had great light at the Mercure in Port Macquarie where the girls where getting ready, I find myself there a lot now. They have brilliant open rooms and a large roof top reception area which are both great for the way we love to take photos.
It is so easy to do your job when you walk into a room that is relaxed and well organised, Ashlee had every thing in hand so while Kristy-Lee (owner of Krisilize Hair ) was finishing the hair it gave me a chance to use the natural light to get some great detail shots.
Ashlee and David chose Cassegrains for the ceremony, which is another one of my favourites. The formal garden and the cellar are visually very dynamic places to shoot. It’s great to see how much the place changes. Every time I go there seem to be a new place to shoot.
The ceremony was lovely as they shared the start of their married life together with daughter Eady.
Due to some bad weather (which I love, make great photos, don’t be afraid of it) we sped up our plans, and did beach and town green photos quickly in very low light. Back to the roof top at the Mercure Centro and had fun with a great band “Mum says Rock” see you at the next wedding guys.
I hope I haven’t been too boring to read, I’m the technical guy, the one Nik turns to when she has an idea like “lets have a blog on our website…. make that happen.” yes dear. She is usually the blog writer, a great photographer and I love her heaps.
