GEELONG WEDDING: SAMANTHA & GAVIN // A Family Affair

Emily — Mon, 26 Apr 2010 23:51:59 +0000

When we met Samantha and Gavin last year to book their wedding film, they had one important request – please try and film our teenage kids enjoying the day! You would think it wouldn’t be too hard a task since all four were in the bridal party, but the as you will see in the highlight we had to do some stealth filming to capture the boys!

Our day started visiting Samantha where she was getting ready at their family home, and she couldn’t have been a more relaxed bride! However, just down the road at the beautiful Barwon Grange historic house the scene was a little more hectic, with Gavin and the boys rushing around to get the ceremony location decorated in time,

Everyone gathered on the lawn to witness the loving and emotional vows exchanged by Samantha and Gavin and afterward family and friends descended on Sailors’ Rest at the Geelong Waterfront, to enjoy a wonderful evening of fun, food and laughter, with Samantha & Gavin topping off the night with a original musical melody wedding dance!

Sam & Gav have enjoyed a relaxing honeymoon sans kids in Thailand, but I know they are keen as mustard to see some footage of their wedding day so we are pleased to be able to give them their highlight a little early and hope it is a good appetizer to the main film feast which is still to come!

LAUREN & DARREN // A Vintage Wedding

Peter — Thu, 25 Mar 2010 18:27:45 +0000

Lauren and Darren were super easy going and just reveled the day this in turn made it such a fun time shooting which really helped as I was shooting solo which was a little scary as I hadn’t shot solo for quiet a while. I really liked the vintage theme throughout from the dress to the cool low rider.

I gotta mention Paul from Icon Pictures again as he picked some awesome locations which really suited the whole feel of the day and I know Lauren and Darren were really happy with the images he captured.

I wish all the best to you guys and thanks for letting me being there to capture your day!

Jaye & Xavier: Save the Date

Peter — Wed, 03 Feb 2010 09:16:03 +0000

A week ago I finally got to shoot this save the date which I’d been planning for a while, I have been looking for new ways to shoot these short and sweet videos to capture even more of our couples personalities, and what awesome and perfect couple Jaye and Xavier was for this! To introduce them, they are massive Pearl Jam fans and I mean real fans. Pearl Jam recently did a tour around Australia and they went to almost every one of their concerts, and it didn’t finish there, then they hoped over to New Zealand to see them one more time – pretty cool!! On top of that they love music with a passion. So I came up with a concept that would incorporate both their wedding planning and also Pearl Jam. I am so glad we finally got to shoot it as I have been itching to get this on tape. So I won’t ramble on any more, and cheers for Jaye and Xavier letting me get creative Hope you guys enjoy it!

Lauren & Darren Trailer

Peter — Thu, 03 Dec 2009 20:57:37 +0000

Been a while since we posted, here is a little sneak peak from Lauren and Darren’s wedding I shot in November. It was a beautifully vintage themed wedding and Lauren really went all out from the dress to the bus. I really enjoyed working with Paul from Icon Pictures who took beautiful images and I am sure that Lauren and Darren will be wrapped with his photos.

I’ll post more about the day when we put up the highlight.

Greg & Steph Engagement shoot

Peter — Wed, 10 Dec 2008 12:02:19 +0000

Last week we had the great fortune to work with funky Melbourne photographer Jessie Broome from J-studios. We are currently shooting examples of her work for an upcoming promo video (stay tuned!) and tagged along to her engagement session with Steph and Greg. We had a fantastic time working with Jess and cant wait to shoot our next instalments, but in the mean time we wanted to make a special little Save the Date video for Steph and Greg to say thanks for letting us come on your engagement shoot – you guys were awesome!

Enjoy and please feel free to leave a comment.

Samantha & Emir | Save the Date 14.02.2009

Peter — Sun, 12 Oct 2008 00:37:00 +0000

We had lots of fun with Samantha & Emir making this video down at the beach in Geelong. This location was special for them as this is where they shared their first kiss! The weather was lovely for a day at the beach, which was fortunate since we had to postpone the first shoot due to bad weather.

Samantha and Emir are such a fun couple, they laughed the whole day, were up for anything and we can’t wait to shoot their wedding in February!

Please leave some comments.
