Lovely Kate and Matthew.
K&M’s wedding took place at Pete’s favourite wedding venue: Empire Theatre in Toowoomba. It was a spectacular day - full of love, fun and colour! A lifetime of memories was packed into one day for wonderful Kate and Matthew.
I believe this is our largest blog post to date! We have included 275 images below (25% of our total delivery; we have tried to include something from all parts of the day). You will find examples from throughout the day (early afternoon till night/indoors and outdoors).
Scroll all the way to the end for the portraits in the theatre. We were pinching ourselves the whole time we were there as it is just such a truly unique, stunning, heritage-listed, art deco-inspired building.
P.S. For the record, we always include more colour than monochrome in our galleries. Sometimes this ratio can get a bit lost in our blog posts as we post our own favourites from the day and, very often, they are the monochrome ones (the ones full of emotion with no distracting elements).
The image below is untouched except for colour correction and perhaps some straightening. The confetti literally fell as shown and framed Kate’s face! As I was culling the images and making the decision on which ones to keep, I had to include this one in the gallery. Our Creative Director (Chloe, 5) was watching on as I culled - “Mum, you have to give them that one. Even the confetti is cheering for Kate!” <3
The image below was actually taken by Kate’s little granddaughter. It was a spontaneous moment. The little one had done an amazing job of being the best flower girl on a hot summer’s day. It got to the end and she was starting to fuss (completely normal!). In order to buy K&M a moment of peace to focus on speeches, I offered the camera to her. She immediately focused on Kate and took this one (I have not cropped or straightened it). I showed it to her, “That’s how Kate smiles when she looks at you!” The beaming smile as she took it in was priceless. <3
We worked alongside Dan Vonhoff on videography. Dan was great to work with - clear communication and fantastic collaboration! When couples ask if we do videography, we inform them that no - we specialise in photography and that we are more than happy to recommend videographers. We recommend Dan. :)
