| my better half |
Bindy and Jules' wedding was the first family/ relative wedding Joel and I had officially done and we were looking forward to hanging out with half of the guests under the guise of being wedding photographers hehe! They had chosen to have a sweet and simple wedding without a bridal party and all held on the one location, officiated by their own minister and it was an amazing day. Be prepared for a long-ish post, it was too hard to cull this one!!
Bindy looked soooo beautiful in this Pronovias gown and the light in their home was lovely to work with...
Jules' little boy Aidan getting the ring run-down...
The gorgeous details....
A special moment....
Making promises...
Bindy didn't stop smiling for a second!
Loved these dainty little flowers, the ones on the left are real, and the ones on the right are made with sugar by the talented Faye Cahill. This cake was amazing, if you got within 10 metres of it you could smell the rich chocolate aroma!!
Beautiful speeches all round. I love speeches, you get to know so much about the couple and their families and what is important to them, and Bindy and Jules are truly very special people...
These macarons were gigantic and delicious, I had them for brekky the day after :P
My little nephew Zac looking mischievous. He wasn't really looking up at the cake i think he was looking up at Uncle Joel taking his photo...
Lauren doing her best to get Missy to catch the bouquet...
The farewell arch complete with a baby!
The weather humoured us on the day. We were really grateful it didn't bucket down during the ceremony but as soon as the formalities were over it started to spit, and then began to come down in sheets....but these guys were awesome and decided that wasn't going to stop them...so here goes our little shoot in the rain, shooting until my fingers got wrinkly!!
Love the rich colour!
When Bin and Jules came over to look at albums he made a comment about liking photos that look like a little series, so here we go Jules, this little set is for you!!
Bin embracing the raindrops!
Love these....
Thank you both sooo much for one of the most memorable weddings ever, the love you both have for each other and those around you makes us smile and know you are going to have amazing days and years ahead. Thank you for being absolute stars out in the rain...can't wait to see you guys grow old together and making the best out of everything that comes your way!! God bless, xx
A couple of months ago there was hardly any airtime planned save for a wedding in Hong Kong that I had intended to stretch into a little end of year holiday with the hubby, possibly detouring to Vietnam or Japan before coming back to Sydney for 2011. Somehow 2010 has taken me by surprise, and I am very very delighted to announce my travel schedule for the year...
Thank you to the wonderful couples who love my work enough to bring me over to where they will be, I can't wait to absorb it all, and also indulge in more travel photography which is always entirely refreshing.
Bolivia won't be for work though, Joel and I were excited to find out the Tan family will be going back with a team from their local church mid-year and have decided to join them. I hope to document a bit more of what's happening in that part of the world, and also am really looking forward to see how all the kids are, I hope I still recognise them! For those of you who are curious, or just want to reminisce with me, here's some of my memories from our last trip with them in 2006 - Sucre, Presto, Pancoche, and Villa Margarita.
Can't wait for the rest of the year to unfold.....much love!! xx
Excited to be on The Knot's top 10 list for photography!!! I'm not quite sure I deserve to be rubbing shoulders with the amazing talent in that list but you won't hear me complaining!
Oh, and stay tuned for tealilyphotography travel destinations 2010 in the next post :D
Peace out y'all xx
Joel and I have known Suze and Noods for quite a while through different ways. They both went to high school with our mutual friends, though I first met Suze through dance and did a little bit of work for Noods' company Random BlowUp a few years ago as well. Joel played indoor soccer with Noods for a little while, and of course, who hasn't seen Suze's food crazy blog ChocolateSuze (also made with love by the husband haha!)
So here we go, introducing Suze, the best way I know how!
In an ode to Suze's foodcrazy heritage, they put on an awesome rainbow coloured, sweet saturated, lolly-themed wedding, to the delight of all involved. Here is a snippet of their ceremony and reception invites...
I arrived to the making of....lollipop boutonnieres! Lacquered for good measure, and a smart move given the heat!
...even the shoes were made from Candy!! okay lame I know :D
Suze with bridesmaids and fellow foodies Sheryl and Helen!
Left: Those Shoes, Right: crazy bride strapping an iphone to her calf!!
They held their ceremony in a small little garden setting which was perfect. Noods soaking up some sun with his besties/groomsmen/colleagues...
Suze's dad looking cute as he waits to walk her down the aisle...
Did I mention lollipop bouquets?
What a cutie!
Yes there was fairyfloss. The one on the right was all mine!!
A quick little shoot before we had to scoot...
Suze's etsy order didn't make it in on time so she headed to the shops to find a gummy bear pendant and from all places, scored one at Thomas Sabo!
Favourite!
Suze and Noods, wishing you the sweetest happily ever after! Thanks for letting us be part of such a fun and unique day, and thanks also for my lollybag it has kept me happy while editing away the past week! Congratulations guys!! xx
