If I said to you “An Irishman and a Sri Lankan walk into a bar in New Zealand….” you might be excused for thinking there’s a punchline and some groans ...

Mitch and Aaron’s Williamstown Wedding
Williamstown was just showing off today. From the sunny ceremony in the Botanic Gardens through to the photos down at the marina and on the beach, it was one of those days that just make you want to move to “Willy” (it seems to be one of those days every time we photograph a wedding [...]
The importance of worrying (advice for new wedding photographers)
A well-known wedding photographer released a new “system” for building a successful photography business this week (I’m not naming names or linking here, because I don’t want to get sued!). There was already a lot of very misleading advice on the internet and being spouted at seminars and workshops, but I think this week we [...]
A McLewis Wedding Sneak-peek
I’ve said it a few times today, but I’m extremely proud to have been involved in today’s wedding. There are a few reasons for this; one is that every wedding is a special thing and being asked to record it is a privilege, another is that in my opinion one of the best celebrants in Melbourne [...]
A family tree … sort of
Two of my favourite people in the world asked me a long time ago to photograph a particular tree for their loungeroom wall. It was a simple request, but sometimes I find complicated is easier than simple. It took me 18 months, about 10 gigabytes of files and over 100 layers in photoshop just to [...]
Sarah and Nathan’s Macedon Spa Resort Wedding
In the leadup to a wedding, if the weather report isn’t looking great we often get asked whether I’m willing to take my camera out into the rain. My standard response until a few weeks ago was to say that I hadn’t yet met a couple who were willing to go somewhere on their wedding [...]
Fletcher
I’m getting a little behind on the blog this week, so to catch up, here’s a boy with a …. wait for it …. little behind (boom boom). Sorry about that – couldn’t help myself. We photographed Fletcher’s parents wedding about two years ago in Hepburn Springs, and if you follow this blog you’ll know that [...]
Victoria and Dean’s Beaumaris Wedding
There’s something really special about working with a couple that previous clients have referred us to. They know all about us before we ever speak, and quite often seem to ‘get’ us and what we do from day one. Jo and I aren’t particularly good at explaining what’s different about us, but people like Ryan [...]
Kelly and Adam’s wedding at Stones of the Yarra Valley
Kelly first met us through her workmate (hi Belle), who we photographed at her sister’s wedding (hi Liz), who was introduced to us by her old friend (hi Jess) who we’ve known for years. And because of this trail of lovely people starting at Jess, we always knew Kelly and Adam’s wedding would be fun. [...]
Danijela
I’ve known Danijela’s mum for years (15 maybe?) and so it was a real honour to be asked to photograph her christening. A lot has changed in that time – we used to talk about Pearl Jam b-sides and now it’s more likely to be baby backsides. Going back to the church where Anita and [...]
An early Autumn in Melbourne
When we planned a photo shoot in the park for Ilona, Nick and their girls, we didn’t expect it to reach 38 degrees on the day we’d picked, but at 7am when we were shooting it was hard to imagine the weather would be anything less than perfect all day. We also didn’t expect the trees [...]
