Lauren and Dain’s wedding is coming up next year, so some engagement shots were taken with some nice autum light and colour. I can’t wait for the big day to come around.

It’s getting cold down here in Tasmania. It kind of just hit last week. Now it’s officially cold. Not too long ago it wasn’t cold. It was at that time I caught up with Alice and Daniel over at Binalong Bay to do an engagement shoot with the dogs. These guys live in one of the best places in the world, just off the beach on the now world famous Bay of Fires. I’d be happy to live there! I’m really really really looking forward to shooting these guys when they get hitched later this year, going to be heaps of fun and I reckon they are going to look pretty awesome!

Ok, so i made up this blog post a couple of months ago and I thought I posted it and only just realised it didn’t make it up. So here they are, late but still fun. Some shots from Jason and Natalie’s engagement portrait session. Jason and Natalie are the ones that don’t have fur on their faces.

Saturday was a long day, no wedding so it wa a full day of shoots in Hobart. And all over the place too. We started with Kim and Eliza down at Clifton. They bought along Dukkah and it was his first time at the beach. He loved it, all the other dogs to play with and the sand to dig.

Then off to Barry and Allana’s for their engagement shoot about their flat. I had to hold myself back, too many good shots to be had there. I have to save something for the wedding!

Then off to catch up with Dain and Lauren in Fitzroy Gardens… and someones driveway. This shot is a bit serious, but there are heaps more mucking about ones too. Dain made fun of me before i got a chance to make fun of him… just wait till the wedding Dain…

Then to finish off the day, a sunset shoot with Mark and Jacqui down on the waterfront. I love exploring the same place over and over and finding new ways to shoot it.

So that was my daylight shooting in Hobart. 4 really great shoots, i can’t wait to show and post more from these sessions, it’s going to be hard narrowing down everything!

How’s that for somthing a bit different? I got a bit dirty taking these shots… must remember that if the ground is wet and muddy i shouldn’t lay down on it.

These guys got the most votes and won our Valentines Day Competition.

We will have some more shots up in a couple of weeks… some really cool ones too

So this shoot may have almost been too much fun and the cool thing is that there is a wedding in the future with these too which i’m sure will push the fun into overdrive! Nick and Rhea came all the way from their little home in Japan for the shoot (they may have come to see family for Christmas and have an engagement party too, but i’m sure the engagment photography session was the main reason )

The plan, lets meet and Jackman and Ross. It was closed. So we just wandered the steets of Battery Point and took some awesome shots, had lots of laughs and generally had a very fun time.

Chris and Kate came home for a couple of weeks of holiday, they also came back for their engagement party. We managed to find some time to get out and take these shots. This was a fun and playful shoot, just wandering about finding some nice urban spots to photograph in.
