Stunning Ayers Rock Wedding Part II

Here are some more photos from the beautiful wedding I was a part of last weekend at Ayers Rock.

I was honoured to be bridesmaid for my best friend Sharon, but that also meant I couldn’t get photos during the ceremony. We did get a couple of quick ones after the sunset ceremony though (about 20 minutes worth, as the light was fading rapidly!) and some getting ready shots.

Big thanks to Sharon’s dad Terry for taking this photo of me and Sharon together :)

Rings!

And I loved the awesome shoes she chose:

What a simply stunning bride :)

In other news, I have perfected the art of braiding!! Check out the cool side braid I did in Sharon’s hair for her big day. Pretty awesome if I do say so myself!

After the ceremony, the pressure was on! Only about 20 minutes of light remaining! Just enough time to get some stunning off camera flash photos :) And of course, whats a wedding without sparklers? Congrats again Chris & Sharon, love you two to pieces!

Make sure you leave a comment if you like what you see!

I am so very excited to share this! I simply couldn’t wait any longer!

On the weekend I flew to Ayers Rock to watch my best friend get married. It was the most beautiful, simple and moving ceremonies I’ve ever been to, and I was simply honoured to be a part of it. Not even the flies could ruin it!

Shae & Chris eloped on 13/4/13, in a secret wedding that was revealed to their friends that evening with the image below:

I am so very proud of you Shae, and I was so thrilled to be there with you to witness your happily ever after! Chris is a very lucky man! You were a simply stunning bride! I hope you both enjoy the rest of your honeymoon, and I hope you like these, but don’t worry, I’ve saved the best ones for you when you get home ;)

Here’s a quick look at some of the photos from the night, the guys put on a great show!

Bridal Shoot with Robbie and Jane!

I couldn’t have asked for a better couple for this shoot! Jane is gorgeous, and this gown from Luv Bridal just fit her perfectly. And Robbie looks pretty handsome in a suit too!

We shot these photos at a local park, and the very last one was done just as it was going completely dark – we had no power as there was a huge storm brewing, so the street lights were out as well, but I just love what a bit of well placed flash can do :)

Fun Train Tracks Engagement – Sharon & Chris

Jan03
2013 Written by Ellie

It was quite a few months ago now that we headed out to some old train tracks behind my house and did this shoot. Sharon is one of my closest friends, my biggest supporter, and my usual model of choice! But this time we couldn’t shoot her alone… we needed her husband to be! Chris proposed to her on top of Ayers Rock. Talk about an awesome engagement story! I can’t wait to see these two get married!

We had a lot of fun running up and down the train tracks, but my biggest challenge.. Chris is TALL! How do you shoot a couple with such a massive height difference?! We tried a bunch of different things – having them stand apart, sitting, him lifting her up… but at the end of the day, the height difference is completely normal for them! And so, it’s not really something that they care to hide. So embrace it! Check out the last picture to see how tall Chris actually is :)

New Website Coming Soon!

Dec11
2012 Written by Ellie

I’ve been working on a new website that I will be able to reveal soon, but I’m very excited about it!

After spending the year back at College studying my Diploma of Photoimaging, our course is almost finished, and its Portfolio time! This year, we are designing our own custom website.

It has been great to learn a bit more about web, including how to optimise images for web, and how to create a logo. My brand was definately getting a bit outdated, so its great to be able to use class time to refine it! I felt like I needed something a bit more modern, to match my style. And after my recent wedding, I just couldn’t go further than the beautiful colours we used – a beautiful aqua like blue and grey.I’ll be launching the site very soon, so stay tuned!

H20 & Reflective Surfaces

2012 Written by Ellie

Last term at College we got to shoot Reflective Surfaces and liquids! It was particularly awesome because we were working exclusively with Alex Buckingham in his studio to get some really cool images as part of an assignment. Our task was to shoot a bottle, glass and liquid in motion. Check out the results below – including a behind the scenes shot taken on my iPhone

Ultimate Swagger

A few weeks ago I had the honour of photographing an event at Cloudland – it was a mens fashion event called Ultimate Swagger, featuring the stylish clothes of Pistols at Dawn, great shoes by Vein Wear and awesome hair by Horse Meat Disco Salon.

It was lots of fun and the guys made me feel so welcome, thanks in particular to John and Bart for putting together such a great event! Although the Cellar Bar at Cloudland was beautiful, it was definately a learning curve for me, working with such low light! Check out the photos:
