Celebration: Sue’s Hen’s Party | Sydney Event Photography

There is something so fun and special about photographing a celebration or event. Everyone knows how much fun a party is, and being there as a photographer is no exception! I love getting a little glimpse into the lives of the people who are being celebrated, and seeing all the love and laughter surrounding them on the day.

To make this event even more special, this was actually a gift organised from two overseas friends who were unable to make the Hen’s party that day. They wanted to show their love for the bride to be Sue, and this was their way of doing that. What a lovely gesture and such a sweet surprise for Sue!

Overlooking beautiful Palm Beach, the party took place in a magnificent home that they had decked out in a Hawaiian theme. The wedding is going to be held in Maui, so it was a fitting theme indeed! Guests enjoyed the delicious grazing table made by some of the guests themselves, while the cocktail waiter served up refreshing drinks on the balcony.

It was a wonderful celebration for Sue, and something she will be now able to treasure forever with photographs to last a lifetime.

Celebration: Evie’s First Birthday Party | Sydney Family Photographer

eviefirstbirthday2016_snappystreet-01

Just before Christmas the gorgeous little Evie celebrated her first birthday party with family and friends in Avalon on Sydney’s Northern Beaches. She certainly was the life of the party and relished in having so many people there to sing, dance and shower her with lots of love and attention. She even managed to keep her flower crown on the WHOLE event!

Evie’s Mum Kathryn hired out the Avalon Annexe, with lots of yummy food for the guests, a beautiful birthday cake for the birthday girl and even a fairy to keep all the children entertained. It was a beautiful event and all of the kids had a great time getting their faces painted, singing and dancing and playing lots of games. They certainly would have all slept well that night!

There is something so special about photographing memorable events like these. Family events are a wonderful time to capture the love and happiness that is shared by all and to create lifelong memories that can be looked back upon for years to come. I hope that little Evie will be able to see these photographs once she is older and her parents can tell her all about her special day and what fun everyone had!

Celebration: Lauren’s Baby Shower | Sydney Lifestyle Photographer

A beautiful mother to be, a gorgeous flower crown, happy friends and family were the secret to a successful baby shower hosted last week for Lauren!

A friend of Lauren kindly offered her stunning home in Lilyfield, while her sister in law and step mother made all the arrangements for the special day. It was a picture perfect event for the little bub and she was well and truly spoilt with love and gifts!

Guests were treated to some amazing dishes including slow cooked lamb, fresh made salads, roast chicken and roast vegetables. There were pink cocktails and bubbles on offer, cheese platers and lots of fun games for everyone to enjoy.

A particular favourite was not so much a game, but a chance for everyone to write some advice on a milestone in the new babies life. One for the mother Lauren, and the other for the beautiful baby girl. I just know that she will look back on those fondly for the rest of her life. Such a special and beautiful idea.

Emma was in charge of the magical red velvet cake, which was a centrepiece for the special day. Now that’s some impressive baking skills! She was also responsible for the flower arrangement on top, what a talented lady! The ladies all devoured the cake, while Lauren prepared to open her mountains of gifts for the little bub!

Bronwen, the gorgeous bride to be celebrated her Hen’s day with friends and family in Manly, Sydney. The celebrations kicked off with a long lunch overlooking Manly beach at The Pantry.

After lunch, all the guests headed to the rooftop terrace of the Hen for some more fun and festivities. Bronwen was treated a surprise appearance from a Butler in the Buff who provided some beverages and giggles for all the girls. It was a perfect afternoon watching the sun set over the northern beaches.
