So there is a new kid on the block as far as local wedding venues go - Torbay Hill Function Centre is now available for weddings and functions, and surely has to have the best view on the south coast of the Great Southern. Rachel and Jarrod had the honour of being their first wedding clients and held both their ceremony and their reception here. Definitely one to check out!

Any man who flies secretly to the other side of Australia and back to buy the engagement ring that his beautiful girlfriend has fallen in love with in a magazine, has to be a keeper! Once I heard that story, I knew this wedding was going to be romantic and very special.

A very early alarm call, a beautiful mumma-to-be, a wee blond boy, and a short drive from Denmark WA were all that was needed for this photo session :-)  

Commercial images for Castelli Estate

Over the last eight years or so, I’ve photographed weddings all around Denmark and anyone who’s ever been here knows that this is a particularly beautiful part of the world, with so, so many photogenic locations. Recently, at Rachel and Josh's I discovered another of Denmark’s hidden treasures, tucked away along a laneway I’d never even noticed was there before. And that was where our beautiful bride was lucky enough to grow up.

I was thrilled to find out yesterday that two of my images have been selected as Shortlist Finalists in the 2015 Fremantle International Portrait Prize. There was 1865 entries from 29 countries and the finalists will be on show in an exhibition at the Moores Contemporary Gallery in Fremantle from 25 October through to 1 November.
