Morgan & Kate's Wedding

Well.....a friend and avid blog follower just pointed out it's been nearly a whole month since my last wedding photography blog entry....I've got so much to tell but just not enough time to write it!


A couple of weeks ago I had the great pleasure of photographing the wedding of Kate & Morgan.


Kate and Morgan have quite a story to tell about how they met. Kate's Mum works for the same company as Morgan and the girls in the office (you know who you are!) saw potential young love and decided hints weren't enough and intervening was the way forward. They set up a date and sent Morgan a text with a picture of Kate and the words 'Meet your future wife...'. Never a truer word spoken in jest.


Kate has to be one of the most organised person I know and within weeks of the proposal had booked, signed, sealed and delivered, just about every vital wedding service needed for their wedding....including her wedding photographer.


I am so glad she did as not only did I have the honour of photographing a wonderful and very moving wedding but since that first meeting Kate and I have kept in touch, formed a great friendship and have become permanent 'gym buddies'. We go to step classes together, the gym and yoga; keeping each other going even though the busy wedding season and hectic wedding planning. I have made a firm friend for life and I'm so glad to have her (& Morgan) in my life.



They are both born and bred locally and wanted this to be reflected in their wedding day. They chose local suppliers or family and friends for everything and their wedding reception venue was across the road from where Kate's Mum was born.


It was certainly a day to remember and I wish them both all the happiness in the world.


I know you had a wonderful day guys.....it was a pleasure to capture it for you and I hope you love your wedding photographs.

Kate had bought her Mum a gorgeous pearl necklace and earings....which she then borrowed for the day.....!!

Kate is so thoughtful and every bridesmaid had a perfect present......



Kate's wedding dress was the most gorgeous Sassi Holford (yes.....Sassi Holford) number.....I even went to the first dress fitting with her.....how honoured was I!



Guess what Morgan does for a living!?


I absolutely love this photograph of Kate getting into her wedding dress.....

Fireworks are difficult to capture and draw on your knowledge and experience but finish the day in style......
