So… this is the product of around seven years of consistent prayer. While everyone else had babies around Melanie, she waited and waited and prayed and prayed and very eventually, along came one little Matthew. We waited a long time for you little man! Which is the only reason I would allow a bubby to do number twos not only on his mum, and his dad, but also on me! Thank You Mr. Knuchel Junior!! And welcome to the world. x
Well, as most of you know, I tend to shoot blind during emotional weddings, as I bawl and sniffle at the appropriate parts of the ceremony and have to point my camera in the general direction of the couple and hope for the best. This wedding, in the lovely grounds of the Yalumba Winery, was one of those, that as a woman, you just go “Naaaaw”.
As a photographer however, when you are lucky enough to be invited to play at a wedding like this, you say “SCORE!” and throw your hands in the air with glee – suh-tunning bride, gorgeous bridesmaids, incredible scenery and none too shabby groomsman are what make a photographer jump around with joy, and as you can see below, this was one of ‘those’ weddings.
A big thanks to Emma Sharkey, for inviting me along for the ride. It was great fun! And a huge congratulations to Toby and Pru. Thanks for having me!

So, this Saturday I again had the pleasure of playing photographer along with Emma Sharkey, which was a very good thing, given that we were photographing a bridal party of 19. Yep, 19 gorgeous people in one bridal party, which made for alot of fun. Unfortunately both Emma and I kept getting distracted by the junior members and noone could blame us, with all three of them being so stinkin cute.
The wedding was held at the 100 Eaves in Sellicks Beach, which was utterly stunning, with the reception at Woodstock Winery. And I must say, the service at this Winery was far and above anything I have seen in this entire wedding season. Well done guys!
The bridal dance was every spectator’s dream – and every photographer’s nightmare – with lifts, spins, dips, drops, and several song changes…let me tell you, I was extremely proud of the trusty 1DMkII for keeping up! By the end, I was cheering and laughing along with the guests, well done guys! I hope you enjoy your sneak peek, see you when you get back!

Aaaah, a baby during wedding season – a welcome cluck break! And what a cute baby I got to play with today! Little S was getting a tough rap for not smiling, but I think he looked pretty happy. Thanks for having me over guys, enjoy your sneak peek.

Yesterday I again had the pleasure of hanging out with Emma Sharkey, to photograph the wedding of Michael and Rebecca. And I learnt several things…a) if a cake happened to get waylaid, Emma can whip one up out of donuts and flowers which will have people saying ‘WOW’ all night, b) George from Beyond India (North Adelaide) makes THE BEST Indian food in Adelaide and c) The groom is actually a very good Ukranian dancer. A man of many talents!
Aside from subjecting me to not one, but two Abba songs (Mike and Beck are very big old style music fans), I had a fantastic day, and cried several times – the worst being when Beck pulled her Daddy up for a special Daddy Daughter dance.
Thank You Both for having us, much love to you both, I’ll see you in a week or two!
