Wedding Photographer Sutherland Shire, Cathy discusses some of the most frequently asked questions about wedding photography Cathy has been a Sutherland Shire Wedding Photographer for
This was just a magical wedding, with absolutely no detail left to chance. Chanei could honestly be a wedding planner! The tones and colours of the wedding were beautiful, and the attention to detail at the reception was simply amazing.
The photo locations and lighting were absolutely superb and nothing was too difficult for their bridal party. Hyde park and Observatory Hill never disappoint and provided such incredible backdrops to their photos. And a wharf at Le Montage just added the final touch to their wedding images.
So many incredible wedding vendors helped make the day run smoothly and almost all shire based.:)
Burnham Grove Estate Weddings. Bronwyn and Erdels Day. Wow, that’s all I have! This wedding venue is something you would expect to find in the southern highlands. Its incredible. Such beautiful rustic themed backdrops for photos, mixed with old world charm.
Bronwyn and her bridesmaid got ready onsite in the cottage which was full of charm. A beautiful little homestead with immaculate furnishings and lots of room.
Both the ceremony and reception were held on the Estate so the guest could enjoy the surrounding gardens while the bride and groom and their bridal party could have their formal photographs taken.
What an incredible perfect day these two were blessed with.
They both looked amazing, their bridal party were a bunch of fun. The weather was perfect and the location to die for. Horses, barns, lakes, rustic scenery, Ottimo House is a photographers dream, and a couples perfect reality, what more can I say.
Lots and lots of dancing, lots of laughs and great company, and some beautiful photos if I do say so myself.
So here is my Bridal Preparation Guide suggestions for the big day.
Your wedding photography timeline
Here are my top tips to help you tackle your wedding photography day timeline!
First and foremost, Plan for the LIGHT. I work with all my couples to make sure that we aren’t doing the location/bridal party photos at the height of the day {when the sun is the harshest} and that we have plenty of time for gorgeous sunset photographs. Check sunset time for your wedding day! You need to ensure you have lots of available light to produce beautiful images. Once the sun goes down you have about 5-10 minutes left of available light. Mind you the ten minutes surrounding sunset time is what we photographers call the golden hour, its divine light.
Wedding cake, so much to choose from. Its one of the oldest wedding traditions. As weddings now are days are so personalised, the choice for the wedding cake is truly limitless. Gone are the days of the simple fruit cake covered in white icing. Thank goodness, just quietly!! Multiple layers are definitely the range with an eclectic array or flavour’s now available. The wedding I photographed last weekend had a really unique wedding cake a fig and almond cake with a beautiful ganache frosting (definitely not low fat I can tell you), but it was divine and definitely original!
I get asked this question often by couples who book me to take their wedding photos. Everyone is different. But let me ask you this? Will you regret not having one? That is the real question you need to ask yourself!
I myself was not that interested in a wedding video, but I knew I would one day regret it, so we had one, it wasn’t edited, no fancy highlights and special effects, just the coverage, as it happened on the day.
I loved it, it’s the real thing, its how the guests saw my wedding on the day.
Why I like them!
I absolutely love engagement photography sessions! I get couples tell me all the time they “hate having their photos taken”. To me, that statement is a challenge….. I want to make sure at the end of an engagement session, couples have not only had a great time, but have no more anxiety at all, about being in front of the camera. I really notice the difference in the couples attitude and demeanour on the wedding day if they had had their photos taken previously.
