Carley meets Sean and Elise - The Sweetest Couple!

If the "perfect day for a wedding" existed, then last Saturday would have been just that. With blazing blue skies, warm winter sun and just a hint of magic, Sean and Elise's wedding day was... well, perfection! It was my pleasure to be the second shooter at Sean and Elise's wedding, and with Lauren from Tiger Lily Photography at the helm they sure were in good hands. I had such a great time getting to know Sean and Elise, and even more fun trying to capture the essence of their special day.

Firstly, it brings me great pleasure to share some of my favourite images taken by Lauren of Tiger Lily Photography on the day. More of her amazing work can be seen at her blog. Thank you so much for allowing me to join you on this shoot Lauren, I had such an amazing day and enjoyed working with you very much. As much as I feel like my right arm is missing when I am not shooting with Kirrily, second shooting for other photographers like yourself provides us with an opportunity to observe, learn, be challenged and, most importantly, have fun...
Let's do it again soon!












I am sure that you'll agree, Lauren did a fantastic job. Congratulations!
Elise and Sean are sure to be blown away by the images.


OK, so... on with the show! The following images are favourites from my own collection. I hope that Elise and Sean enjoy these images as much as I enjoyed creating them!


Elise was the sweetest bride to be, and her fresh and funky personality certainly comes through in these images!







Elise's bridesmaids looked stunning in their glorious gowns and bought a natural vibe to the shoot. They clearly adore their friend and rejoiced in her happiness on the day.










Isn't she just the cutest? This cheeky expression is what I loved the most about Elise...

I especially loved that she was being herself.






Elise's dad, Anthony, was grinning from ear to ear ALL DAY! Who could blame him?









As for Sean, well he is quite the gentleman, and clearly adores his bride... he and his 'boys' were so relaxed and easy going in front of the camera and were just a dream to hang out with.









The reception was held at Cropley House, and the combination of fantastic food, awesome service and such a romantic venue made for a magical, memorable evening.





I love the first dance, it brings tears to my eyes every single time without fail! And I love these images of Elise and Sean joyously giggling together as they dance for the first time as husband and wife.



It was clear from the very start that this wedding was going to be F.U.N!

These guys sure do know how to party!




This was how the dance floor looked when Lauren and I quietly disappeared for the evening...

Elise, surrounded by her grilfriends and having the time of her life.
Boy, that joint was JUMPIN!




To Elise and Sean, thank you for allowing me to join Lauren on this, the most special day of your lives. I hope it was everything you dreamed of and that your honeymoon was even better! Congratulations, and best wishes from Kirrily and I for a long, happy life together.
