On the afternoon of Mother’s Day, I met with Lillian, Andrew and Lillian’s two gorgeous daughters for a quick pre-wedding session.We were rudely interrupted by Mother Nature half way through, but the rain did make for some quite nice shots before it got a bit too chilly to stand in! We only had half the time I usually have for portrait sessions, but what the session allowed me to see was how affectionate and cheeky Andrew and Lillian are, and how comfortable they are with each other. All Lillian needs to do to put a smile on her fiance’s face is giggle, and coincidentally the thing that made Lillian giggle the most was Andrew’s smile… so all in all it was a lovely session filled with lots of giggling. I can’t wait to photograph their wedding next month – they are a beautiful couple and their happiness is contagious!

When I first met Tharese and David, I was really excited to photograph them because they have a kind of electric chemistry with each other. You know without a doubt that they were made for each other, and so I am super excited to photograph their wedding in June! I met with them along with two of David’s sons (who were great location scouts and had an energy that I was jealous of), at Wollongong Botanical Gardens this afternoon, and although it had been a beautiful weekend it started raining as soon as I arrived (typical!). What I wanted from this session was to let them interact with each other so that I could capture them as naturally as possible, and use that to work into the wedding photographs. David is cheeky and playful, and Therase is so relaxed and just gorgeous, and they didn’t need much direction from me at all. I love couples that are comfortable with each other and are comfortable being themselves around other people, and I thoroughly enjoyed our session. Here are some of the photos of the lovely David and Therase!
