Yes it seems a little crazy but my fellow photographers will understand the feeling. The photography world gets completely insane and while everyone gets a break over Christmas and New Year, we work all the way through. Wedding season doesn’t really get a break until we hit the colder months now which means winter is the time for us to recharge, regroup and relax a little - the same as starting the New Year.
We have just come back from our first family holiday. It is insane I know, but we don’t get the chance to get away. We actually rarely take lunch breaks so holidays are not heard of. Now the kids are getting older, I feel it is really important to have family time and that means just one week a year I plan to have the family holiday. This year we started the ball rolling with a trip to the Gold Coast. What an amazing time. It was exactly what was needed for us to get recharged.
Now we are back, we are straight back infront of the computer screens. Finishing off an incredibly huge number of portrait and baby shoots I didn’t get to edit before we left and the weddings. With that little recharge I am feeling superhuman and am getting work completed like never before !! So blogging will resume. Winter is our time for catch up, to get all those jobs out while we have some free weekends (well sort of). The next 18 days we work straight but that’s cool because I have my “just come back from holiday” feeling and I am ready to tackle the work head on!
So to start the ball rolling, here is a sneak peek of a wedding that didn’t get to the blog before we left. This is Tracy and Christian’s wedding. They chose the gorgeous Bowers Cafe for their wedding and it is one of my favourite places. Especially for that smaller intimate wedding, it is the perfect venue. Tracy looked absolutely stunning as you will see. Gorgeous hair, gorgeous makeup and a stunning gown. What an amazing bride. Not to forget handsome Christian of course. Just the perfect couple !!
