John and Bernadette's day

And what a day it was.

On 6 October 2007, the were married at St Christopher's Church in Manuka.

My assistant, Maggie, did a fantastic job covering the boys, whilst I had the absolute pleasure of looking after the girls as they made themselves ready for the day.

After the ceremony, we visited the heart of Civic and - wow!!! - did we end up with some amazing shots - have to go there again!!!!

That night, every was up dancing and dancing and dancing at the Boathouse restaurant and both of their parents were pleasantly surprised when we presented them with a framed print of them on the Merry Go Round.

Here are some of the pictures - hope you like em!!

Nara Park on 5 October 2007

That's where we were. Another windy, but sunny day for Michelle and Paul to tie the knot on the edge of the lake.

With their two boys helping with the rings, Michelle braved the cool breeze as she said 'I do" to Paul. Their family and friends cheered when they kissed and then smothered them with hugs (to help keep Michelle warm as well as to congratulate her!).

We did some shots at Nara Park, before heading off to the Govenor General's Driveway for a few more photos before the light disappeared.

It Happened on 29 September 2007!!!!

That was the day that Rebecca and Rohan were married at the Catholic church in Hall. Another beautiful sunny day that was made interesting by the 200kph winds!!!! Well, strong winds anyway! After the ceremony, we used Rebecca's dad's (Gary) ute for some photos before heading into town for a photo shoot at the National Museum and Old Canberra House

During the reception, the guests were amazed when we put on a slide show of the photos we had taken that day - every one was impressed!!!

We had a fantastic meal at the Gold Creek Tourist Resort and left them to the dancing in the wee small hours!!

Awarded AIPP ACT Wedding Photographer of the Year - 2007

Wow, how exciting.

Last Monday I was fortunate enough to be awarded "The Wedding Photographer of the Year - 2007".

This award is from the Australian Institute of Professional Photographers and is awarded to the photographer with the total highest score for 4 prints that are judged by a panel of 5 independent judges.

Back in 2005 I was again lucky enough to win the same award, and this year the judges obviously liked the prints that I entered - I have put them here for you to see.

Alicia and Daniel are now married

On 22 September 2007, Alicia and Daniel tied the knot at All Saints church in Ainslie. It was a magnificant day as we roamed around the lake area getting some great shots before the cool air came in on dusk.

Rebecca and Chris in August

Here I am catching up on some of recent weddings - things have been very busy at Creative Image Photography, so I apologise for not keeping you all up to date!

Rebecca and Chris were married on the 11th of August 2007 at Hotel Kurrajong. A few of their guests arrived from overseas to share their special day. Despite a cool breeze blowing off the lake, we managed to find some sheltered areas and achieved some amazing images.
