Meet Kyla everyone!!! She is so gorgeous and has the deepest blue eyes I have ever seen in my life. These are just some casual shots I took at a dinner party so nothing formal or planned shoot. Luckily I still had my camera from the photo shoot I did earlier on in the day (will post those soon). Just all natural lighting in these and honestly I have done no editing to the eyes. She really has the deepest blue eyes you will ever see!!
A week before the wedding, I drove down to berry to take a look at the winery Kristyn and Adam had chosen for their wedding day. Call me eager but I just had to see the location well before the wedding day. It was so beautiful with stunning backdrops and I spent a bit of time finding the right spots to do the location shoot. All I could think about that week was about this wedding day. I was super excited and had everything planned from the type of shots I want to achieve to where it was going to be done.
Now lets fast forward a week!! While driving down to berry my heart skipped a fair few beats. The weather wasn’t looking the best, and the winery hadn’t grown at all (I knew it wouldn’t grow that quickly) but I had a little bit of faith. On top of that, the winery owner had sprayed pesticide, so we couldn’t use the location spot I had chosen a week before. But somehow the gods had listen to my little prayer and the clouds started to disappear. The sun started shining and it put a smile on everyone’s faces. I found another spot to do the location shoot and all went according to plan.
The day started with some casual shots of Kristyn and her beautiful bridesmaids relaxing and getting ready in their room. Kristyn and the bridesmaid look absolutely stunning!! I loved the long vintage dress, and the style they had all chosen. It suited the location of this wedding perfectly. The ceremony soon followed after in the beautiful courtyard with great scenery, with location shoots and reception at night.
I would like to thank my helpers Joanne.H and Kory.L (primary 2nd shooter) for helping me through out the day. Kory is a well established motor sport photographer who likes to venture into the wedding field when he can. If your a big car buff do check out his website (Kory Leung Photography).
The following are some sample photos from the wedding.
Please note the pics have been re-sized a fair bit to fit into the blog page.

The life expectancy gap between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians is 19 years. Chronic health problems plague Indigenous communities. Kidney failure alone runs as much as 50 times the national average in some Indigenous communities and organ transplant rates are less than a third of the national average. With these alarming figures, Malpa is creating various projects to tackle these health problems.
I was approached by Don Palmer the director of this project, to capture and photograph a few Dialysis Machines which have been painted by beautiful Aboriginal art work. When I first spoke to him on the phone, I could tell straight away at how passionate he was about this project. With Dons background and commitment I know he can make a change and reduce those alarming figures.
The reason these machines where painted, is because art tells a story. Its a way to express your feelings and show others the true meaning behind something. Aboriginal artists have painted their stories on these dialysis machines which are the only means of survival or increasing numbers in Central Australia. The machines are being taken around the world to raise awareness of the importance of giving the world’s oldest continuous cultures a chance to create a future. This project is generously supported by Fresenius Medical Care who are the manufacturers and suppliers of the machines.
One of the machines is proudly displayed in the headquarters of Fresenius Medical Care in Germany.
