Most of the leaves had lost their gorgeous colour, but we managed to find a few nice golden ones. It was an impromptu shoot so the girls are styled in whatever they found clean this morning!

Photographing this lovely family was so much fun! With four children under 5, two being twins, I knew I was in for an adventure. As the family was holidaying in Iluka we decided that the best spot to go to was the local park which is close by the Clarence River. We swung on swings, climbed in trees, paddled our feet, had running races…all good fun!

When I saw this, I just knew there was going to be trouble!

After all the action, I got a chance to grab a quick shot of mum and dad!

Alex was 6 weeks old when I photographed him and his lovely parents. This very adorable baby belongs to proud parents Amee and Wayne who are obviously so proud of their little man. I am so happy for you both and feel very privileged to photograph your family.

My friend and previous photography assistant Jess, married her man is a sensational country wedding in Lawrence on the weekend. For all the unpaid hours, bag carrying, support and laughing at jokes she has heard me repeat many times, the best gift I could give her was to shoot her wedding. Many many congratulations Jess and Angus!!

I mentioned to Candice that I would love to photograph her family again, just for fun! So we picked a day and decided to go with it. And then we crossed our fingers for some sunlight.

Thankfully on the day of our second session the sun shone brightly and the light  filtered through the trees surrounding Kolora Lake, Yamba deliciously.

The girls were as gorgeous as ever; sweet and kind and gentle hearted.

I hope you enjoy the photos.

Until next time, Vicki

I knew Rebecca would be a gorgeous bride from the minute I met her at the Yamba Bridal Expo last year. When I arrived at Rebecca’s house she looked just perfect! Daniel is just so lovely. During their wedding day if I wanted him to smile, I asked him to look at Rebecca. His smile reached his eyes and then went further.

The light was just magic as I was taking photos and I was getting so excited!  I guess I am what you would call an energetic photographer. I have way more fun than I probably should! I wish my brides and grooms didn’t have to go to their receptions.

Rebecca and Dan absolutely trusted me with their photographs and were up for anything I suggested. I hope that you love them!

The ceremony was held in Sannas gardens, Palmers Island and they are incredible. Every time I go there I am in awe. You see, I have one plant, it requires watering once per month. And even then I sometimes forget.

Gina is so passionate about her garden and her love for it shows in every corner. I was talking with Gina today and she can’t wait until she can just concentrate on her garden. I told her she could do that when she retires! She thinks she better get a wriggle on because she’s….been 21 a few times!

I have to admit I had a small giggle during the ceremony as my friend and celebrant Christine Preston held the bouquet for Rebecca. She looked like the bridesmaid!

Thank you so much Rebecca and Daniel for having me photograph your wedding. I feel so spoilt to be your photographer!! xx

One thing I’ve learned is that ALL brides are beautiful on their wedding day. There’s nothing more flattering than the look of true love! No matter how low-maintenance you may be, though,you should still consider hiring a professional makeup artist to help you look your absolute best on the big day. Experienced makeup people know just how to emphasize your very best features so you’re ready for your close up at picture time!

I’m always rapt when my brides tell me they’ve chosen Edessa to do their makeup. I’ve photographed brides wearing make up by Endessa for 3 years now and I know she always does a fantastic job and the makeup photographs flawlessly. Apart from gracing North Coast brides with her fantastic make up, Endessa has worked at Fashion Shows as part of makeup artist Rae Morris‘ team.

Yesterday, I visited Endessas’ Beauty Spot for a quick photo shoot of some work she was doing. It’s fun for me to get out and do something out of the ordinary!

Following are some of the photos from the shoot.

One of the artist!

Until next time,

Vicki
