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!

Vivien and Joshua’s Wedding

Peter — Sun, 21 Feb 2010 00:47:58 +0000

I love how Chinese tea ceremonies give the parents and other family members a chance to really be involved in the wedding. They can take a moment to bless the couple and give them words of love and encouragement, it is such a great tradition to have part of weddings. Plus the beautiful reds and golds, the offerings and the incense really add to the sense of culture and history that these couples are part of.

Josh & Vivien’s was one such wedding. With two tea ceremonies, a civil ceremony, a drive out to Emerald Lake and a nine course reception dinner, they were in for a big day, but both of them were so relaxed for the start and ready to enjoy each moment. Although Josh may have felt the pressure when Vivien’s bridesmaid’s set him a tough challenge before he was allowed to enter the house!

I must say a special Thank You to Josh & Vivien for including us in the nine course dinner, we were very spoilt to be able to try shark fin soup, quail and lobster and it really made us feel part of their wedding day.

Hope you guys enjoy the highlight.

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!

Rebecca & David Highlight

Peter — Wed, 23 Dec 2009 21:18:27 +0000

Last night we dropped off the final DVD’s to Rebecca and David as an early Christmas present. It was wonderful catching up with them again, and just like they were on their wedding day they were so welcoming and excited to see us! We are really proud of this wedding film and were thrilled to receive a thank you message after they watched the DVD last night – it’s those moments that we remember we love what we do!

So, I now have the pleasure of presenting to you Rebecca and David’s highlight. It was such a pleasure to be part of their day and I really wanted their highlights to capture the love and spirit of the joining of not only Rebecca and David, but their families as well. It truly a wonderful day full of family, friends and lots of smiles!

Also we would like to wish a Merry Christmas and a happy and safe New Year to everybody.

Enjoy

Peter.

We had the pleasure of filming Madalyn and Chean’s wedding earlier this year, and now we are able to share their highlight.

Kim and Michael Highlight

We have the pleasure of presenting Kim and Micheal’s wedding highlight. The day was perfect for a garden wedding at Rippon Lea Estate and allowed us to capture their day beautifully. They were so happy together enjoying the family and friends around them. In this highlight I wanted to capture the love that was between them and represent their happiness that we also saw in their save the date video.

It’s been a while since we posted the Trailer, so here is the highlight of their day. I am glad we were able to also capture some of the location around Apollo Bay as it was so much a part of their day.

Last week we had the great fortune to work with funky Melbourne photographer Jessie Broome from J-studios.

Dreaming Cairns

Peter — Mon, 10 Nov 2008 23:21:37 +0000

This is a little vignette of our trip to Cairns. It was a much needed break and it was certainly an awesome and relaxing time. The weather was brilliant sitting around 30C every day. I couldn’t resist to not take the camera with us since I knew there are so many interesting places to film. The footage was taken in various places; the 7km Skyrail that goes from Cairns to Kuranda, Daintree forests, Trinity Beach and Paronella park (Would be an awesome place for a wedding). Cairns and the surround area has too many of places to see and we definitely will go back for more. Hope you enjoy.
