Alright, so in my excitement to get “7 blogs in 7 days” up and running in the post Olympic afterglow I kind of forgot that I would be heading up to Queensland half way through. So, ummm, yeah, this is awkward. It looks like I’ll have to rename it “7 blogs in 7 non-consecutive days”, […]

When I was a kid my family moved to Leigh Creek for three years, a small country town about 6 hours north of Adelaide. It was an isolated community where everyone knew everyone, a place where a 5 year old (me) rode his bike home from school all by himself and stayed home alone to […]

What’s the worst thing you can imagine happening in the lead up to your wedding? I have a friend whose wedding dress was destroyed after her dressmaker’s shop burned down (fortunately there was just enough time before the wedding for a remake).

The big ticket items have included selling a house, buying a house, moving into said house, organising an engagement party / house warming party at new house, getting married at the party (surprise everyone!) and going on a honeymoon.

It was six days before the wedding when I got the call. Six days. Their previous wedding photographer had fallen through and I had been recommended by a friend of a friend. By a stroke of luck I was free that day, had it been the weekend before or the weekend after things would have […]

Kingsbrook Wedding Photography

Some weddings you just know are going to be fun, this one promised much and delivered in spades.
