Hong Kong DIY – Alicia and Chris

We have a bunch of GORGEOUS weddings sitting here on our computers at the studio, waiting to be published, so we can only show you a little teaser until then! Its so hard to keep them tucked away!!!

This gorgeous Aussie-Brit couple, based in Hong Kong, decided to have a “garden wedding” in the bustling Asian city. None of the gardens were what Alicia had in mind, so she made her own! On the water! With her imagination and creativity she put together an entire wedding all on her own, in her spare time. (WOW!!!!!)

Needless to say I was extremely impressed!

Winner – Engagement Portrait Session – Shawn and Bec

And the winner is… Shawn and Bec!

To celebrate the Studio relocation to Australia, we ran a competition through our Facebook page We asked our fans to write to us and tell us their dream portrait shoot in Melbourne.

Shawn and Bec’s entry caught my eye, their story was so cute. This funky couple of artists are actually already married, and every year they go to Luna Park to celebrate. It was 3 years ago that Shawn proposed over a stick of fairy floss!

That was enough for me. I had to shoot them!

Happy to announce our runners up, Aaron & Lauren (Vintage Garden) and Kris and Hanne (Brighton Beach Boxes).

Thank you everyone for your entries and cant wait to shoot your portraits!

Melbourne Engagement Portrait Session – Eddie and Tiffany

Welcome to Melbourne! The city of style, great food and good times. It really is such a pleasure to be here. Since I am a Sydney girl, I really haven’t spent much time in Melbourne before, so the adventure is just that little bit more exciting for me and I do get very inspired with “new” places. Eddie and Tiffany requested their engagement portrait session to have some urban shots without graffiti and lots of sunflare. (Stay tuned for part two of the engagement shoot)

My interpretation after meeting them and hearing their requests, was a shoot that showed their elegant style, with a touch of inner city spunk. Awesome! We even had mother nature turn on the wind to blow up Tiffany’s skirt for an impromptu Marilyn Monroe moment!

Needless to say, I am really looking forward to their wedding in April.

(Yippie!)
