Amanda and Jason…part 2

I hear your cries for Amanda and Jason’s photos….sorry for the delay…but here they are…..

THE WAIT IS OVER!!

After a storm the most amazing light shone through, and Amanda finally got to walk down the aisle:

And we were able to gather around and hear Amanda and Jason exchange their wedding vows:

Pauline and Ray giving their daughter away…actually I think Paulines words were “take her!”

Fortunately Amanda and Jason kept their sense of humour about them, despite the earlier weather:

You all know I love my flare!:

Unfortunately the sand for the Sand Ceremony got a bit damp in the storm:

But all’s well, that ends well:

And now we have it…..the smooch!

Everyone cheering for me…I wish!…Yay for Amanda and Jason!

And here we have our bride and groom:

A very cool bridal party!

Then we headed off to the reception:

some details:

Finally a chance to chill out and enjoy the night!

The kids were groov’n on the dance floor!

Serious business, this cake cutting!

The first dance:

Everyone up!

And finally, the bouquet toss:

amanda and jason

wow…where do I begin with Amanda and Jasons wedding day……..

There are sooo many photos that I am going to blog their wedding in two parts. I have had a bit of extra ’stuff’ on this week so won’t be able to get the whole blog done in one hit…..I hope you understand……

Lets start with a relaxed portrait of the groom

I couldn’t help but include a photo of this spunky little ring bearer:

Who was rocking some really cool shoes:

Amandas gorgeous shoes and dress:

And some amazing details:

Theres a bride in there….

Now can I have a little more cheese, please!:

And there’ll be dancing in the streets….

As a wild storm whips up behind our girls:

But the girls are in still in good spirits:

And then as we arrived at the ceremony….it hit:

Let me introduce to you our marriage celebrant, Christine Preston:

We hung out in the garage while we waited for the storm to pass:

People started to emerge from the garage:

And I ventured out to see how our bride was holding up:

Stay tuned…..on Tuesday I will be blogging more!

Until then,

Vicki

Ooooh baby!

Now I know that there are some people who are just *dying* to see Amanda and Jason’s wedding day photos, but you are just going to have to be patient for a little longer…I’ve had such a busy day today and haven’t had a chance to get them ‘blog ready’!

One of the reasons for my tardiness, is this precious little fellow below:

I had the privilege of photographing him this morning in his own home and he was just perfect…you couldn’t ask for a better poser! I love the six -eight month age group. They have developed their own little personalities, but still have that adorable baby look.

I promise to get onto Amanda and Jason’s photos on Thursday, so keep checking back, at least 17 times per day (it makes my blog stats look good!!!)

Until next time,

Vicki

My family and friends. Anytime.

I love taking photos. fullstop. It’s just what I love to do!

Todays post is a selection of photos of my family and friends taken anywhere, anytime, in the past fortnight.

I’ve also decided to increase the size of my pictures to make viewing easier….if you have a slow internet connection speed….sorry, but it’s worth the wait! If you would prefer I go back to smaller images, please let me know by leaving me a comment or emailing.

Yup! She’s a poser!

crazy child!

Leisurely stroll:

….see me in the glasses!!

I’ve thrown in a landscape shot just to mix things up a bit!

Playing with cars with boys….

An impromptu family photo….

Don’t know, don’t ask….but I like it!!

Until next time,

Vicki

Amanda and Jason’s engagement!

A bit over a week ago, I headed out to Brooms Head to shoot an engagement session for Amanda and Jason, whose wedding I’ll be shooting in in two weeks! I can’t wait…the ceremony is going to be held in one of my most favourite places to shoot!

They bought along little Alana so I just had to grab a few shots of her being pretty cute!

I then sent them trekking up a hill so I could take his next series of shots:

I’m still loving flare!

They snuck in a quick kiss before Alana could hit them with “Ewww Mum and Dad are kissing!”

Just hanging about!

Alana was having a great time playing around and being my special helper:

Amanda says she’s not, but I think she’s a natural poser!

and Jason was pretty relaxed in front of the camera:

Gotta love the back drop, oh yes,  Amanda and Jason are pretty cool too!!
