How easy is it to have Family Portraits done with Newcastle photographer Petti Anastasi

admin — Wed, 28 Sep 2011 05:27:50 +0000

So many of my clients say ” I have been meaning to have family portraits done and I just keep putting it of” or ” We have been meaning to get it done but we have no time”. The following family photographs I did took 45 minutes to take on a lazy Sunday afternoon. I make having family portraits done fun, simple and if I can get teenagers to smile and enjoy themselves I can walk away feeling like I captured their personalities.

These Portraits were also done at the family home…..

This is what I mean by having moments captured….and the best part is that we did this at the family home…..You would think we utilised the studio!!!

I must say that Drew and Annabelle’s wedding was a true winery wedding. Modern Elegance and informal capture was exactly how their wedding photographs are…..Annabelle’s dress was made by Melanie Ford which was exquisite!! They were married outside Enzo’s Cafe at Pepper Creek Winery on the lawn next to the fountain…..The romantic ceremony was followed by a cocktail reception where guests mingled and enjoyed spending the evening with Drew and Annabelle….Congratulations to you both….

What an exotic location to hold your wedding…..It was truly romantic. Greg and Renee were married on the 5th September 2010 at the Shangri La Fijian Resort on Yanucca Island and it simply was amazing!!! Greg and Renee’s ceremony was held in the Chapel along with a Fijian Choir and their reception was outdoors under the trees and the fairy lights on the Chapel Lawn…

I absolutely loved the location….Greg and Renee’s wedding image collection is full of bright vibrant beach images and beautiful sunset images with a resort feel……A fantastic time was had by all…
