daniel and natasha 12th january 2008

the lovely natasha and dashing dan were married on a sweltering hot day in january at the picturesque catholic church in australind with their reception at the power boat club in bunbury. natasha and daniel met way back when tash was dan's supervisor at work...which was the source of many amusing story during the speeches!



we arrived at the house of the boys to find not one of them was ready/dressed/organised but managed to capture this handsome shot of the groom



then on to the home of natasha...

natasha was particular about all the fine details of items she had chosen, especially on her stunning gown, that was adorned with the most beautiful beading...

yes...we managed to have all four little ones sitting still for one image...

isn't this girl simply beautiful...?

natasha's sister alyce was amazing on the flute...

just love it when i am able to manouevre into the perfect spot for the kiss -

we found this little laneway with an intricate old gate (detail, detail) for a few images...

tash in a fit of laughter when i told her to "work it"...

dan is a big fan of old cars, was restoring one himself at one stage, and one of his mates offered to drive them in his rockin purple hot rod (note to self: must write down make and model of cars for enthusiasts...)

then off to a blue wall for a bit of colour...

then on the way, found this yellow corrugated (detail, detail) wall where we (well, mike) carried our tub chair to for a bit of contrast...

tash and dan were willing to venture out on the pretty jetty for a few twilight shots

you would never guess that tash if absolutely petrified of heights/the holes in the jetty/falling in in these gorgeous images...

mike beat me to the sunflares...thinks he can capture them as well as me...well, i never...

a yummy cake decorated by tash...

this backdrop was so pretty, supplied by jannine wass, wedding decorator, you can find her in this guide

tash's brother steven is a dj - so all the go-go gear was in place for a loud, dance party after the speeches...steven is a great dj, i couldnt keep off the dance floor (as i was taking photos of course!) find his website here

hey dj steve, this should be on your web site!

and you will never guess...andrew denton was the mc...seriously this is andrew denton...he was so cool...

a few very pretty romantic dancing images to finish...

daniel and natasha you balance each other perfectly, best friends, mutual respect and a whole lot of love...we hope you enjoyed your honeymoon! thank you for inviting us to share in your magic day - and not telling me off when i danced for hours to the 80's tunes! your families were incredibly welcoming and accomodating with our many requests...and also rewarded us with a great meal from lucy and her ladies...thank you...

the competition is now in full swing with mike beating me at the post with sun flares...sun flares are mine!!!
