1.  I fold NOT crunch  -  toilet paper that is!

2. Sometimes snort when I laugh too much BUT don't we all (also cry tears of joy at extreme joy)

3. I've been known to give my only boy (3 girls in the mix) gentle love-bites on the bottom - he cries tears of joy seriously!!!!!!

4. My studio/office is the neatest room in the house - rest is rather neglected.

5. Collect elephants - first ever were from India (backpacker days) & a raised trunk is good luck!

David & Vicki - Wedding

So here is the full post for David & Vicki's wedding last weekend. The guys did an awesome job of organizing their wedding from Alyangula in the NT. Both boys & girls got ready at the beautiful Crowne Plaza Pelican Waters. Sandy from Rolling Scissors created the girls lovely hairstyles - she came, went to another wedding in Maleny and returned - what a legend. Vicki looked incredible in her dress and was glowing the whole day. The lads scrubbed up pretty well also. Two gorgeous red chevrolets transported the bridal party to Our Lady Catholic Church in Caloundra - beautiful light filled modern church. Quick congratulations before the photo shoot on the beach - winter here so the sun drops pretty quickly and cools down as well. The reception was held in the Mt Tibrogargen Room at Crowne Plaza - the room was stunning - mainly white with hints of blue. One of the best man said it well when he said there was such a good energy all day - I absolutely loved the whole atmosphere David & Vicki created for their day - besides being so much fun these guys are also so much in love - thanks for letting me be a part of it.

My little lovelies

Been on school holidays for last week and a half - hence no regular posting. Young Jene` is having a disco tenpin bowling birthday party this month - so we needed a photo for the invites. Very very very hard to get an image of my four - a good image I mean. So again I have given it another go!!!!!! My youngest Lucy is loving the high pitched squeal at the moment - I know I must put an end to it but how she loves it and when your in an open field who are you hurting right? Oh besides the dog which came to investigate. So we have a little competition who is loudest - this clarifies the first image. We love the beach, live very close to the beach but looking for something a little different. The rusty old trailer was a bribe for my boy towards the end when his attention was wearing thin.
Wedding tomorrow so come back in a couple of days for a sneak peak.

First photographed Marayke at a local dinner in 2000 when the Olympic torch was in route. She has achieved so much - broken over 70 Aussie records, medals, awards, Bachelor of Arts, motivational speaker - you can read all about this amazing athlete on her website - www.marayke.com.
