Helen & Peter

I don't think I've had a wedding post this year that hasn't started with some remark about the weather. I'm afraid the next couple are going to follow the existing pattern!

Helen and Peters wedding was held on Friday, March 11th, at the Deck in Canberras Regatta Point.  The weather the morning of Helen & Peters wedding was, well, not good!  The rain and drizzle had settled in and it didn't look like it was going anywhere in a rush.  Come the afternoon though, the drizzly grey skies had developed into the most spectacular storm clouds that formed an amazing backdrop for their evening (and just as importantly, just hovered there looking magnificent without raining on us - thanks clouds!)

It was so lovely watching Helen and Peter sharing their vows of love surrounded by lots of family and so many long term friends.  Having had bad luck with lost photographs in the past, I've done my best to get a few images up for them as soon as possible to set their minds at ease.  Hope you enjoy sharing the joy!

Timmy & Fi Forever

From my very first meetings with Tim and Fiona over a year ago, they mentioned that they had a feeling it might rain on their wedding day. It seems that for them, a family celebration = wet weather, and as it happened to turn out, their wedding day did indeed extended this tradition.

Try as it might to put a dampener on things, the rain had no luck.  From the moment Fi arrived at the church, to the welcoming, but very loud, in-unison-cry of "FIONA!" by the three beautiful young girls in charge of the ceremony booklets, it was clear how much passion friends and family had for this lovely young couple.

The ceremony, delivered by Father Constantine in the gorgeous little chapel, Sacred Heart church in Calwell, was incredibly touching, with lots of love, laughter and stories of how Tim and Fi first met.

We had a great time on location, with the rain subsiding for us allowing us a little more flexibility, but still providing lots of beautiful clouds and lovely reflective puddles!

On to the reception at Rydges Lakeside, where I had a lot of fun working my "photo-booth" - where guests can write their own special message to the happy couple (or just have a group shot) on a blackboard.  GREAT FUN!  Here are some of the pics from the day, I hope you enjoy them even a smidge as much as we did making them.
