mel and fred - a wedding

mel and fred - a wedding

• 9 Jul 2015

Last month my mate Bruce called and ask if I could help out at a wedding he was photographing in the Southern Highlands. I haven’t photographed a wedding in a while, so of course I agreed. I drove from Sydney down to the reception venue, Attunga Grove, where Mel and her bridesmaids were getting ready. Bruce and I had photographed her sister’s wedding a few years back so it was a bit like a family reunion.

The Attunga Grove's grounds were gorgeous so I took some photos while the girls were getting their hair and make-up done.



The reception took place in a marquee that had been set up by the lake on the property.

Nothing like a cake with a touch of bling. 




I found a pretty nook to photograph the dress and the bouquets.



The bridesmaids wore matching elegant mushroom pink coloured dresses.

Some shots of the bride getting ready and yes, they are Badgley Mischka shoes. 

Pretty maids all in a row.

The beautiful bride.

A last shot before the trip to Berrima. 

The pretty but tiny St Francis Xavier Church in Berrima where the ceremony took place.

Married!




We drove back to Attunga Grove for some photos of the bridal party. It was close to the shortest day of the year so after the sun went down, the temperatures dropped but these ladies were troopers.

A sweet moment.

Some details.

Thanks so much Mel and Fred for letting me be part of your day.

Bye for now,
