Love and Basketball – Emma and Scott’s Wedding

On Saturday I had the pleasure of documenting the wedding day of Emma and Scott, a couple of basketball lovers who also love combi-vans. And each other.

As luck would have it Scott was actually my team mate on the first basketball team I ever played for – I was 9 years old and he was 7. If I’m not much mistaken I scored 4 points that season, and I’m pretty sure the guy who was 2 years younger than everyone out-pointed me, he was better than me then and things haven’t changed since. In recent years he’s also taken to coaching Emma’s Uni SA team, I’m not sure how the dynamics work there but I can just imagine the car ride home if Scott decided to sub Emma off in the crunch for not hustling back on D!

As usual I took some shots of the boys mucking around and getting ready before heading to the bride’s place to capture the transformation. Emma and Scott were both great, super laid back and up for any photo idea I threw at them, including a pretty treacherous rock summit at Glenelg. It was a great idea for a photo, and things were going great…. until the tide started coming in and the route back to shore was getting deeper by the second. I was forecasting a bridal tragedy but luckily Scott came to the rescue with his long legs and a timely piggy back and the crisis was averted.

With a dress code of “Formal with thongs” and a couple of combis as bridal cars this was always going to be a fun wedding, so without further ado I present Emma and Scott.

LOVE this shot!

Thanks Emma and Scott for taking me on, I hope you’re sipping cocktails by the pool on your honeymoon as I type this!

I’ll be putting some more photos up on my Facebook business page shortly so if you want to have them posted to your wall the second they’re up make sure you head on over and “like” my page.
