in case it was lost on you freya had a red and white polka dot party….I decided the theme also extended to the party food…mini sponge cakes, white polka dot caramel creams, lemon cupcakes, jam drops, champagne berry jellies (for the big kids), strawberries dipped in white chocolate & slivered almonds, white rocky road and meringues sandwiched with white chocolate ganache…needless to say freya was bouncing off the walls for hours!

Kieran was not nearly as patient, his poor mother Annie was instead sitting at her desk preparing for a big presentation the next day, not a thought towards the handover she would eventually have to do for her super busy job…her baby due still another 8 weeks away… who would have ever thought he would decide that night was the night…

Here he is 7 weeks later and not technically due yet but all ready to take on the world… welcome little one.

Lots of hugs and kisses from freya frog & annie. xxxxx

maybe I should let their photos should do the talking this time…

and this says it all…

As I mentioned before nearly all the wedding guests at Nic and Emma’s wedding traveled a long way to share their day with them and I say, what an awesome way to capture your wedding guests…and these guys truly brought it!  Emma gave the best new talent awarded to the rubber chicken….totally very well deserved.

A very small selection of my favorites from the night…

you can see the rest of the craziness here.

I had only met Emma once before she asked me to document the most important day in her life but I felt already like I had known her forever.  She is one of those people that can’t help but ooze gorgeousness, that kind of beautiful genuine gorgeousness right from her soul through to her skin and she has truly met the yang to her ying, Nic.  This was reflected by the distances that 90% of the wedding party traveled to witness this perfect matching, with people travelling from all ends of Australia, and even London.

This wedding had been many months in the planning and I was so happy to see it unfold just like the day, so perfectly.

Thank you Emma & Nic for asking me to document such an amazing milestone in your lives and thank you especially for being you; full of love, kindness, joy, warmth and a particular special kind of gorgeousness. Much love and thanks xxA

Emma’s divine gown was from Angeline Baccini of Baccini & Hill, and it truly was…dee-vine!

Emm choose to get ready at The Club, a new boutique hotel that has opened in Chinatown on Ann Siang Hill, it could not have been more perfect. I just love these photos of the preparation, Emm’s girls where all they could have been…and more.

Emm & Nic chose to meet before the ceremony and I think it is so worth it, to share moments like these… 

Angela from by the branch did a stunning job with the flowers including Emm’s bouquet.

rawr gals…

Emm you are truly gorgeous inside and out…

Very funny part two to follow…. AND a huge shout out to my man Craig (check him out here) for being my run around guy on the ground when I missed my flight and being there to second shoot with me, it was a blast and can’t wait to do it again some time!

This is Tilley…you just spend a little bit of time with her and soon see…she has such a lovely spirit.  So tender and sweet.. she’s a gentle observer, taking the whole world in with those beautiful big blue eyes, that darling smile and her serene little soul.
