I love Greek Weddings!!! They are so much fun!! Michael & Melanie were married at St. Demetrios Orthodox Church in a 45 minute ceremony full of culture and tradition. We headed down to the Honeysuckle and Newcastle wharf area to have their location photographs done….. Their reception was held at Charlestown Bowling Club….Congratulations to you both. Enjoy your images!!
I completely love the styling of these images. I was lucky enough to be found by Ross and Elizabeth to photograph their wedding…The happy couple reside in Mackay QLD but flew down to Quay West Magenta Shores Golf Course to be married in front of 60 family and friends. We had a perfect Autumn April day…and loads of fun on their location shoot buzzing around the golf course. Ross and Elizabeth have a portfolio full of elegantly relaxed images. Enjoy them and thanks to you and your families for allowing me to be part of your day!!
Congratulations to Scott & Karah. They were married amongst the trees at Buttai Barn NSW on 12th June 2010. A winter wedding in the cool breeze amongst the rustic location of old barns and a horse drawn carriage….The setting gave me the opportunity to give Scott & Karah a photographic portfolio with a hint of antique and farmyard charm….Scott & Karah it was an absolute pleasure for me to spend the day photographing you both. Thank you also to Rowanne from Envision Event Planning for all her hard work for making their wedding run like clockwork…..Everyone should have a “Rowanne” at their wedding!!!
Sam and Debbie were married at the Greek Orthodox Church in Skelton street Hamilton, followed by a reception with 200 plus guests!!!!
Their day was perfect weather and one of their locations was utilising the grand old tree’s of Laman Street Newcastle where we had space for the Hummer’s which were their bridal cars.
Thanks to Corina an Michael from H2 Hunter Hummers for making the day run so smoothly and for all your co-operation.
Rebecca and Tom are being married mid August at beautiful Wandin Valley Estate in the Hunter Valley NSW infront of 80 family and friends.
What’s great about this pre-wedding shoot was Jimbo the dog was part of the day and the photographs are full of character!! It really show Rebecca and Tom’s fun style!!!
A pre- wedding shoot is a fantastic way for you to get some images of the two of you in the lead up to your wedding day.
It also allows you to get a glimpse of how your photogreapher will work on your wedding day and to get to know your photographer…
Sam and Debbie are getting married at the end of August 2009 and had their pre-wedding shoot down in the Honeysuckle area in Newcastle NSW.
They have some stunning images of the two of them enjoying each others company!!
What a busy start to 2009 Petti Anastasi had in regards to wedding photography portfolio’s and it doesn’t stop there…flying out to Fiji in June for a bit of R & R and to recharge the batteries Petti will have some time for a little personal photography and to maybe offer her services to as a photographer at The Sheraton Fiji and for any couple’s getting married…..
If you are planning a wedding for the Spring, summer 2009/2010 now is the time to get stuck into planning your big day! One of the most important things to book early is your wedding photography. Petti Anastasi says ” dates book fast especially the early and late part of the year so if you find that you like a photographer and their work, make sure you secure your booking with a deposit….”
Planning is crucial in getting who you want to photograph your big day. Especially in the Newcastle and Hunter Valley regions as their are loads of weddings that happen every weekend and if you are looking at having a photographer like Petti Anastasi who is a local Newcastle / Hunter Valley photographer who works on her own then booking in advance is a must!!!
On the 2nd May 2009 I was fortunate enough to photograph Natasha and Corey McHatton in the Hunter Valley Winery area…..we had perferct weather and we visited 5 different locations in the Pokolbin area.
Natasha and Corey were married at the Lovedale Wedding Chapel in front of their family and friends…from there they all moved onto Peterson’s Champagne House for the Reception.
I spent 1.5 hours photographing their location shoot and their images have come up absolutely amazing….we utilised Wilderness Road for this shot in particular and it is amongst my favourite’s!!!
Congratulations to Corey & Natasha!!
Every bride wants to look glamorous in her wedding photographs. A professional photogarpher knows how to place you to look your best and what sort of poses are more appealing!! But what gives brides that flawless look….well….Makeup!!!
Always have your wedding makeup applied heavier than what you would normally wear. The camera needs heavier makeup to be able to pick up definition of the cheeks and eyes. Your lips also need to have colour on them……the nude lips look which is popular only works in the right lighting situations. Weddings are bsutling events which happen in all different lighting so having makeup on and colour is always going to bring out the best in you.
Here is Kristy on the morning of her wedding….Kristy’s make-up was heavy and striking and the camera loved her. Kristy & Dan were married at Treachery in Seals Rocks in a beautiful ceremony out amongst the cabins at Treachery….
