Sydney Wedding Photography – Michael and Stella – a few teasers

October 30, 2015

Michael and Stella were married on Bradleys Head, in Mosman Sydney, and partied the night on in The Rocks. Sydney behaved itself for us, although the opera house was feeling a little blue, and the sun popped out at the end to say goodnight.

A few pics here of the day and more to come soon.

Thanks Michael and Stella for having me along, and for being so hospitable, it was a real pleasure!!

I had to pinch myself in the middle of this wedding. The fairy-tale marriage of Benjamin and Kerri-Anne took place on Kerri’s parents macadamia farm in Brooklet in the hinterland of Byron Bay. I thought I’d give you all a sneak peek of some Byron Bay wedding photography before posting the full wedding soon.

I am so blessed to have been able to have the opportunity to be a part of such an amazing day.

Ben Humphryis - Thank you Matt for the incredible sneak peak photos of our wedding and we look forward to seeing the rest with great anticipation! Your skills as a photographer have been praised by everyone we know since you posted this blog of our special day.
Thank you for being professional, friendly and making the photos run so smoothly. We never felt like we were being forced to pose and often barely noticed you were there (in a good way).
We will be recommending you to all our friends and family.
Cheers, Ben and Kerri.ReplyCancel

Sydney Wedding Photography – Justin and Sanae – Dunbar House

September 21, 2015

The rain was pouring down when I arrived at the hotel where Sanae was at 7am for her prep photos, even I was a bit nervous about the day ahead.

But after some serious praying and maybe a lot of luck, Sydney showed us its best.

Justin and Sanae live in Japan, Justin from Australia and Sanae from Japan, and they decided that Sydney was where their wedding would be. Justin’s lovely mother Susan looked after most of the wedding from Australia as Justin and Sanae live in Japan, and I have to say she is an amazing women. Susan also has a little travel section in The Australian. ;o)

I have to admit that Sydney is one beautiful city, I love coming back when it behaves itself, so they did make a great choice. The harbour is something you just want to photograph!

So here are a few frames from their wonderful day.

More to come soon.

Rural Country Wedding Photography – Rylestone NSW – Kyle and Nadine – A few frames

September 15, 2015

I spent a few days in a very beautiful part of Australia last weekend. Kyles parents property is about 30km out on a dirt road from the small town of Rylestone in rural NSW.

We went out for 3 different photo sessions, of which there are a couple from each below, had some beautiful food, drank wine by a huge bonfire, and I managed to do my first real attempt at star filled night sky, with Kyle and Nadine braving the darkness to pose in the middle for us! I don’t get many chances at those living in the city and all, it turned out OK I guess.

I’m a lucky man to be able to see parts of the world like this, I do remind myself of it every day.

Thanks Kyle and Nadine for having Tess and I along for your extra spesh day, for your amazing hospitality, wonderful courage, and…the super S’mores!

Much more to come from this stunning location and this cute couple……so many photos!!
