Firstly our congratulations to Simone and Kon on their recent marriage. They had beautiful weather for their wedding day, with temperatures around the mid to high twenties – a good day for April!  Simone and her bridesmaids got ready at her parents property in Harkaway, before a stretch limo took the bridal party to St Catherine’s Greek Orthodox church in Malvern for the ceremony.

Kon arrived in an awesome white Thunder Bird , which after the ceremony took the newlyweds to a nearby park for some photos, and then on to the reception at The Pier in Port Melbourne.  The venue was ideal for a cocktail style function, with enough space for the guests to relax on couches and a separate area for dancing.

The couple are now off enjoying their honeymoon getting a tan on a beach far far away!  Congrats again to Simone & Kon!

Congratulations to newlyweds Natassia & Tony.

We photographed their engagement party back in September 2009 and now we came back to both film and photograph their wedding.  The couple married at Weddings by the Lake in Kilsyth,  on a day which started muggy and ended in rain, but which provided enough clear skies for the ceremony to proceed unhindered by such mundane concerns as the weather.

Tony surprised Natassia by arranging a horse-drawn carriage, which took her and her bridesmaids on a 45 minute ride, before bringing them back to the gardens to arrive at the ceremony in style.  Natassia was then preceded down the aisle by the couple’s one year old daughter, who pushed her walker with the rings on their cushion in basket on the front, without a single misstep.

Here are some of our favourite images from the day:

Earlier in the year we congratulated Mark and Katie – an entirely different Mark and Katie to your photographers here – on the announcement of their engagement.  Recently, we had the pleasure to photograph and film their official engagement party at the Hotel Barkly.  It was a stunning venue with an outdoor deck framing views of the Palais Theatre and Luna Park, with the beach in the background.  The event was attended by more than two hundred family and friends, and was a resounding success!  Congratulations again to the engaged couple…

We took the opportunity recently to photograph several of her dresses against a beach backdrop in Torquay.  We shot on dusk and took the opportunity at the end of the shoot to drown the gown, with Bella walking into the ocean in one of her wedding dresses.

There was a horse drawn carriage, a beautiful old church of classical design, and photos in the gardens during Spring in Victoria. 

Congratulations to Susana and Steven on their recent wedding. 

Hudcomm was commissioned to provide both photography and videography of their wedding and the day started early for us, with a 75km drive to the bride’s home to capture those key images of her and her bridal party getting ready to go to the church.  Yes, we have to admit to a short stop at a local fast-food joint’s cafe for a coffee beforehand, but then we were right into the thick of it. 

Getting to the church was a 45km dash to make sure we were there for the bride’s arrival in her horse drawn carriage, while the groom awaited with palpable nerves.  The ceremony went perfectly, then it was off to Parliament House and the Fitzroy Gardens for the photos, before a casual drive to Ashton Manor in Diamond Creek for the reception.

The night came to a close by midnight, with Susana and Steven leaving in Steven’s treasured classic Valient.

Congratulations to Natasha and Tony on their recent engagement!

They plan to marry in March next year at a beautiful Melbourne outdoor venue and we’ll be providing both the photography and videography for their day.

Their recent engagment party was held in the midst of some of Melbourne’s wildest Spring weather, though that didn’t get in the way of the party itself.  Mark attended to provide photography of the night and here are some of the images from the party.

We’re both looking forward to their wedding next year!
