ATHENA

A few weeks before Christmas I had the absolute pleasure of collaborating with some crazy talented ladies for a styled shoot. The concept behind this shoot was the celebration of a brides individuality and personality. For example if Athena was getting married today, what would she be like? Would she wear white? Or would she mix things up? Maybe a gown that had an interesting, personal style to it. It was an amazing 2 days of wandering deep into pine forests, secluded patches of grasslands and wildflowers. I hope you enjoy part 1. I will be posting part 2 soon. Huge huge thanks to all the beautiful ladies that were involved in creating this! I love you all and I'm so glad to have met you and call you friends! Please take some time to check out their beautiful work:

BENDOOLEY ESTATE WEDDING

ALEX & HENRY

Alex & Henry are two of the most lovely people I have met! Nothing could have wiped the smiles of their faces on their wedding day. Even during gail force winds and power outages, all they could focus on was each other. Luckily the gorgeous Berelouw Book Barn at Bendooley Estate was not effected by the power outages and we sheltered inside the most gorgeous little cottage while Alex & the girls got ready. All morning we joked about those amazing wedding day stories of  "rain clearing just before the ceremony."  Then ironically the winds that were causing havoc all day, settled right down about half an hour before the ceremony time. While still a light breeze came through every now and then, the outdoor ceremony held in the brand new pavilion in front of the lake was absolutely perfect! The Book Barn was an amazing back drop for their wedding. Everyone came together to enjoy the great food, great wine and AMAZING dancing. Everyone was on the dance floor celebrating, and I mean everyone! Alex & Henry - Thank you so much for choosing me to be a part of your celebrations. x

THE SWANSTON FAMILY

On the labor day long week end, Dan and I took a little road trip out to the country to visit a gorgeous new friend and her beautiful family. Alison is an amazing makeup artist and I was feeling so exited to work with her on an up coming project that we packed the car and drove through fields of gorgeous canola to Temora. Alison and Matt were so kind and had us over for lunch - plus I got to have my makeup done by the talented Gypsy Girl herself :) - and then we headed out to their family farm for a little shoot. Thanks for such a great day guys! We can't wait to come and visit again! :) xxx
