Eddy & Ondine

Once again I flew to Noumea, New Caledonia, to shoot a wedding.

Eddy and Ondine have been friends of mine for some years now and it was really pleasure to be invited to shoot their wedding.

We had it all for this special day: Heavy rain, thunder storm and a bit of sunshine. It was a bit of challenge to deal with the weather but I managed to take control of their “fear” and dragged them out for some photos.

Noumea is renown for it’s history and its lagoon. We didn’t have much options to deal with but we definitely had a good time.

PS: it was a bit of a challenge to go against local habits, especially to when I asked the newly wed to pose next to a pond, crossing a muddy grass just after a heavy rain… but again the results make them happy so…

A few images that I had time to process between to barbies with old friends.

M2 is made of this

Between two projects in my crazy time table, I managed to find some time to edit two images from the shoot for M2 that I wanted to share with you.

Basic editing of a shoot where I really had fun. More to come soon, I hope.

PS: I am storyboarding for the last chapter of my M series Project, if you have some crazy ideas that you want to share, don’t hesitate to shoot me an email.

Meredith on Sunday

Quick post between two edits for fashion and wedding shoots.

Following the bridal shoot on Saturday with Sophie and Nina, I headed out on a cold Sunday to shoot Meredith.

It was a last minute organised shoot and I had invited a friend photographer, Robert Coppa, to have some fun.

Kirsten Pawlicki was the Make Up Artist in charge and we had some outfits designed by some local talents to play with:

Dress designed by Jenifer Apps

Costumes by Christine Pawlicki and Racheal Designs for the pink, french cancan and Lady Gaga red outfit.

Also included are a few images of the BTS (behind the scene) shot by Robert Coppa and myself.

We used a Canon 5D Mark II, Canon 1D Mark IV and a Nikon D3s.

Sophie & Nina. M Bridal

It was a really amazing day to shoot with some amazing people.

First I’d like to thank Ben Appleton for letting me use his awesome apartment for the shoot. We didn’t really have time  to exploit all the potentials of the location but I think we got some nice images.

Models.

I met Sophie back to 2007 for a first chat before a shoot. It was at the Gus’ Cafe’ in the Civic. Sophie showed me her portfolio and we never had a chance to do a shoot together… until now.

Nina. I’ve “met” Nina on Facebook and noticed that she has really nice bridal look and would look gorgeous for a bridal shoot.

Nina just had a little boy from about 3 months and it is just amazing how she looks on the shoot. Stunning in a bridal gown.

The Make up artist is the very well know Zoe Barton (http://www.zbmakeup.com.au). Zoe specializes in bridal make up and I already had the joy to shoot with her for bridal magazines. If you are getting married soon, give Zoe a call to book for your make up.

The designer: Anita J from Anita J Bridal Couture (http://www.anitajbridal.com.au/BridalCouture.htm).

Anita is a very talented wedding gown designer in Canberra. You can find all the details on her website and her design is just amazing.

I had the joy to shoot some of Anita’s designs for bridal magazines and really enjoy shooting them again today.

Anita brought about 12 gowns to the shoot but unfortunately, we didn’t have the time to shoot them all.

Another shoot is already planned for a near future.

Stay tuned.
