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

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…..

         

 

 

 

Family Portraits at home

How beautiful are these family portraits I did recently of the Micevski family!! These family portraits which included the whole family are so valuable. 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 had the pleasure of photographing Little Amelia along with Geoff and Clare recently. We spent a couple of hours together and I think we have captured Little Amelia’s personality beautifully…..Portraits are so special at this age.

The Wedding of Drew and Annabelle Woodhouse in the Hunter Valley

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….

Scott & Karah’s Country wedding at Buttai Barn NSW

Two little country angels!!

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!!!

Happily married!

Happily married!

What seperates me (Petti Anastasi) from other Newcastle photographers?

I have come to realise recently that within the Newcastle and Hunter Valley area in NSW there are so many “wedding photographers”offering their services. How do you choose who best suits your big day??? I asked myself ” why should couple’s choose me? What is different about me and other professional photographers? These are really tough questions to ask yourself. So many talented photographer’s are in the Newcastle and Hunter Valley area…..what seperate’s Petti Anastasi and why have me capture the most memorable day of your life?
 
I suppose I could say it is my documnetary approach to weddings….how I like the “photojournalistic” style of shooting where I photograph what I see…..but – really….any good photographer can say that….I think my point of difference is that I am passionate about every wedding and about what I do as a photographer…..How I love to turn up on the day knowing that the wedding I am about to witness and be part of is completely different to the one I just finished! I actually do photograph my take on the day but I then jazz the image with a little glamour and try and apply a creative spin on what I am seeing. That is what I bring to every wedding portfolio. After looking back at your collection of images your favourite image will not be the one where you are both looking and smiling to the camera….but the little moments through out the day captured….where an expression says it all!!
