Ohh there’s a little munchkin here that stole the show a little bit. I couldn’t help but to keep pointing my camera in her direction with every movement she made. Ella is her name and she’s the beautiful little girl of Dave and Lucy’s. Following on from there great success in furthering the human race. They’ve gone on to create a Wedding Day marked with all the pointers of a perfect day.

Given that it was a rainy morning, the perfect blue sky was unexpected for some and the canvas to an environmental backdrop worthy of an oil painting. Dave strutted his stuff for me as his Photographer with a healthy mix of taking the piss and some inherent moves that as a seasoned veteran I’m sure he’d practiced. Ha. Lucy just kept on smiling (with the odd tear of happiness thrown in). And to be honest the warmth of her heart simply dominated everything and everyone.

I loved the way these guys kept it relatively casual, and simply enjoyed an awesome shindig with family and friends. Great food, some delectable snacks (gelato van!), and three blokes with instruments smashing out tunes in the corner that got everyone kicking on the dance floor.

My very sincere congrats to my lucky clients, who have been fortunate enough to create so much goodness in one lifetime already.

Love and Peace - Dean aka CloudFace.

SOPHIE + BRENDAN {Willow Farm Wedding Berry}. 10-11-18

SB_001_TP.jpg SB_002_TP.JPG SB_003_TP.JPG SB_004_TP.JPG SB_005_TP.JPG SB_006_TP.JPG SB_007_TP.JPG SB_008_TP.JPG SB_009_TP.JPG SB_010_TP.JPG SB_011_TP.JPG SB_012_TP.JPG SB_013_TP.JPG SB_014_TP.JPG SB_015_TP.JPG SB_016_TP.JPG SB_017_TP.JPG SB_018_TP.JPG SB_019_TP.JPG SB_020_TP.JPG SB_021_TP.JPG SB_022_TP.JPG SB_023_TP.JPG SB_024_TP.JPG SB_025_TP.JPG SB_026_TP.JPG SB_027_TP.JPG SB_028_TP.JPG SB_029_TP.JPG SB_030_TP.JPG SB_031_TP.JPG SB_032_TP.JPG SB_033_TP.JPG SB_034_TP.JPG SB_035_TP.JPG SB_036_TP.JPG SB_037_TP.JPG SB_038_TP.JPG SB_039_TP.JPG SB_040_TP.JPG SB_041_TP.JPG SB_042_TP.JPG SB_043_TP.JPG SB_044_TP.JPG SB_045_TP.JPG SB_046_TP.JPG SB_047_TP.JPG SB_048_TP.JPG SB_049_TP.JPG SB_050_TP.JPG SB_051_TP.JPG SB_052_TP.JPG SB_053_TP.JPG

If you reckon you’re hungry and you’ve got just that little snack in mind that’s going to tantalise your taste buds (sneaky pack of chippies, meat pie, vegimite on toast?….), you’re not giving yourself the opportunity to see how good the offerings of the food gods can look (let alone taste). In these images you’ll find the answer to that with a little bit of drool that I couldn’t quite help myself from dribbling on the monitor when reliving the experience.

So now lets, between you and I, pretend that this whole feast of food (created by the food angels of Garnish Catering) thing is a metaphor for loving relationships. The perfect blend of ingredients that fills the tummy but above all warms the heart. The lamb meat balls and baba ghanoush, the tabouli and roast vegetables. It’s all divine. Better than a fine wine. You nibble away at that smorgasbord of goodness and sooner or later you unite flavours and become one delicious dish served for two.

Sophie and Brenden, sorry for my distractions here. I haven’t even mentioned that you’re way better than the biggest Middle Eastern smorgasbord in the history of the East Coast of Australia. But I remain distracted none the less. Is it your super chilled, friendly manner that’s meant that somehow a falafel roll has almost stolen the show. Well yes, it is. But that’s a huge compliment.

I absolutely loved seeing these two wonderful human beings laugh and cry and be everything that we know we want love to represent and continue to always be. Willow Farm played the perfect host. Accompanied by a team of supporting Wedding Vendors that are second to none. Monty Badami, The Freelance Antropologiest, Existential Phenomenonologist, and Incredible Wedding Celebrant, gave everything and more as usual, and complimented the spirit of Sophie and Brendan perfectly. Likewise the guys spinning the vinyl (who’s name’s I’ll update soon). The dance floor was pumping, and I had a hard time not to swing the little cameras around my head and get my layback drop wallet down…..next time.

My warmest thanks and congratulations to my dear clients.

With Love - Dean aka CloudFace.

Bec and James! What beauties. Such class acts. So easy going. So happy. What a couple!

I’m a little bit lost for words here. It’s not due Bec and James’ Wedding being non eventful nor due to the fact that one the Wedding didn’t impact me deeply. It’s just that in being the student of humanity that I am, I simply was struck by a distinct lack of the kind of slightly abnormal, left field, one eyebrow raised kind of happenings that otherwise typically imprint on me.

There weren’t wardrobe malfunctions, nor slightly too public nose picking. There wasn’t a drop of red spilt down the front, or any saliva that went down the wrong way mid speech. Counter to this, Bec and James’ Wedding left impressions on me for all the right reasons. People simply dressed up, looked absolutely amazing, socialised intimately, gave gob smackingly impressive speeches, danced their booties off, and all up got down to the business of celebrating an amazing couple. Job done!

I loved that Bec and James were both so laid back, that if I’d forgotten to put my ‘Wedding Photographer’ hat on, certain (usually considered quite ‘precious;) photographs, like Bridal Party shots and even Bride and Groom Portraits, may well not have been mentioned, let alone been executed. And I know it would have been like, “ohh well, that’s a bit bridey isn’t it”. My kind of clients!

My huge thanks to my lovely clients, Bec and James. Thanks too, to Tim Mooney for the shout out in the first place bringing me to their attention. And last but not least big ups to all the amazing vendors that made this Wedding so truly uncharacteristically perfect.
