Noah Diana & Andrew
There was dancing in the streets when this wedding was announced! Andrew Moor & Diana Sievwright were married at St Mark’s Uniting on June 6th, and got back from their honeymoon yesterday. Graham’s children were sad at their return, as they’d been minding Diana’s & Noah’s dog “Cadbury” and didn’t want to give him back. (Dog minding service not normally available.)

Edited to add: Six months after her wedding Diana joined the team here at Renaissance Photography, as our photo editing and customer service manager. We’re delighted to now have Diana as a core part of everything we do.

Brooke and Craig
Brooke & Craig were married in Cowra, just three and a half weeks after the council finished the City’s new function centre. Amazingly, their’s was the third wedding reception there since the scaffolding was removed- I’m not even sure it had been officially opened yet!

Sorry we’re behind in posting some wedding pics here. I’ve posted lots, so some of Brooke’s distant friends can get an idea of how much fun they missed out on.

Wedding at Turners in Orange
Anna Murphy & Phillip Humpherys had an all-in-one ceremony & reception at Turners Vineyard Orange. An outdoor ceremony can be a photographer’s nightmare, especially on a sunny day without shade anywhere useful. (The sun is, well, harsh.) Technical difficulties aside, the affection between these two was more than evident, and a total joy to document.

After the ceremony we nipped off to a nearby farm for a bit of country style shooting fun, before heading back for their reception.

travel and destination wedding photography
The single most common question I get asked in e-mails is, “my wedding will be at X, do you travel?” What’s really amusing to me is that “x” can be as close as Millthorpe or Molong (both a 20 minute drive from Orange). So, how far does Renaissance Photography travel for a wedding?

The day before Sarah Binks & Jason Bembrick’s outdoor ceremony (at Eugowra’s Eat Your Greens function centre), with predictions of an afternoon thunderstorm looming, Sarah outlined her wet weather plan to me. “My dress doesn’t do rain, it won’t be getting wet. No shooting with umbrellas, no walking through wet grass, we’ll be staying where it’s dry thanks.”

As it turned out, God had other ideas…

Sorry folks, I’m way behind in posting our recent weddings. Autumn in the Central West is just extraordinarily busy. Sam Fernley and Reece Drewe were after some country images from their Bathurst wedding. So we found a location, and after a couple of other stops, had a little time to shoot eight boys and their hats!

Nicole & Andrew's Orange Wedding
Nicole Stojanovic & Andrew Caro’s wedding was a day of epic moments. True, all weddings are- for those with the eyes to see them, but a couple of this day’s were a little more obvious than usual.

For instance- Andrew took to heart the idea of giving his new wife a wedding present, and despite everyone else in the bridal party being in on his plans, the secret was kept till the very last moment!

Erin & Myles Bathurst Wedding
It’s been a little while since I’ve had my Bathurst wedding photographer hat on, so it was nice to capture some of the special moments from Erin Tonkin & Myles Elton’s Bathurst wedding.

Their ceremony took place under a marquee on the Tonkin family property at Mt Rankin, followed by an afternoon tea, some photos around the property, and a reception at Bathurst Convention & Function centre. Sandra always over-caters with her staff, ensuring fantastic service, fast meal delivery, quick bar service, etc, so I knew they’d be in good hands for the evening.

It was a wonderful escape to travel down to Canberra and photograph Cristy & Troy’s wedding, so very close to Christmas (the Friday before).

I’d photographed Cristy’s brother’s wedding a year or so earlier down near Wagga, and it’s one I won’t forget in a hurry! (Think five suited boys on motorbikes, all doing synchronised wheel stands across a paddock.)

This time around it was nice to meet the family again (Cristy & Troy’s mum is delightful), and a total pleasure to forget about the crazy Christmas shopping frenzy happening all around, and be drawn into a love story instead.

Despite living in Cowra, Melissa & Mark had a all-in-one ceremony & reception at Langdon’s on Peabody, near Molong. They’d heard stories about Langdon’s legendary service, and seeing Melissa wanted a wedding with no risk of anything going wrong, it was a nice fit. As it turned out, they’d heard good stories about us too.

Chloe told me (Graham) the day before her wedding: “I’ve never had a single professional photo taken in my life, it’s just not something my family did. It’s all a bit scary. You see, we just don’t look good in photos.” She finished with “if we end up with just one nice image, I’ll be really happy.”

These guys were yet another of those “ooh, we both just hate having our photo taken” couples. I love people like this!

This is a wedding I’ve been looking forward to for years. Not that it’s been a known event for years, but it had to only be a matter of time, before one of the most eligible young ladies in Orange, finally fell in love with one of the many troubadours lining up to leave flowers at her door.

It was also a wedding that was nearly relocated to Sydney after Maree Caltabiano & Mark Coleman’s reception venue informed them only two weeks out, that they were cancelling the booking for their reception with 200 guests. “Here’s a refund for the deposit you paid us six months ago, good bye.”
