When Lynn first contacted me about wedding photography for her wedding in May, I was ecstatic. We actually went to school together and it’s been over 10 years since we last saw one another. Obviously lots has changed in our lives since we left school, but she’s still her same gorgeous self that I remember.
When I met up with James and Lynn a little while ago on a short trip to Melbourne (they live interstate) we chatted about how they met, their beautiful relationship, and one humdinger of an engagement story – complete with a choir serenading Lynn as James proposed. Seriously… talk about ROMANCE! I was so excited for these two in the lead up to the big day, and it certainly did not disappoint. I was in wedding photographer heaven. They were married at the beautiful Newman College Chapel at the University of Melbourne, and we stayed on there to have some photos as well.
Lynn looked amazing on her wedding day – the strapless fishtail gown she chose suited her perfectly, and James looked very dapper in his pinstripe suit. The bridemaids were in classic cocktail style black dresses with white sashes, and the whole thing screamed classic elegance.
The gorgeous Julie Dammery from Beautique Creative did Lynn’s hair and makeup (and did an amazing job at that):
The handsome groom, completely unaware of how long he actually had to get ready for the ceremony, or how he was going to get there (and they say the bride is normally late…!!)
We got him there in the end, and good thing too because the ceremony was divine. We had a beautiful time after the ceremony also -
Um, did I say Lynn looked gorgeous??! Trust me, she suited being a bride!
Just a couple from the reception too which was at the Point in Albert Park (yummo!). Lynn and James had made up table numbers with a picture of each of them when they were little. SO adorable and definitely a talking point for the guests!
{Lynn and James, thank you again for having me capture these beautiful memories for you. Congratulations again on your beautiful wedding day and have fun on the honeymoon!!}
