Ryan & Chelsea's Wedding








                      Ha ha! My faithful assistant Theo, creating a backdrop from the hotel curtain.


       Hands down, the best food I have ever had at a wedding reception. They had everything and more!

Congratulations to Ryan and Chelsea! What a beautiful day! This day makes it into my top3 for most enjoyable weddings! Sure this could be seen as bias, as I am friends with the bride along with many of the guests. This ranking could also be seen as one sided for the fact that the food was out of this world! There were chefs and food stations positioned around the sides of the reception hall. Some of which were preparing the food right before the guests as they mingled in between formalities. From fresh fish being fried, to apple strudle being prepared and baked in a mini oven. The atmosphere was electric with all this excitement on the go! The very best of cuisine from all over the world calling out to you. This was the first time I have seen vases filled with prawns! I mean who needs flowers in vases when you have prawns!;) I was also drawn in by the sushi platter that kept getting replenished every few minutes. By the time dessert came I was quite content, consequently giving it a miss, although it did look equally impressive. Dessert consisted of: a large chocolate fountain with various confectionaries to drown, apple strudle straight out the oven - literally, three different types of wedding cake, what looked like death by chocolate, and the list just went on...and on...

Apart from the above, I'd say it was probably the joy and excitement radiating from the couple and bridal party that made it so fun. Having a sunny day also makes my job way easier and more enjoyable. After shooting for about 12 hours myself and my assistant, Theo, hit the dance floor to end the day the best way, with some undignified dance moves:)
