Pete & Mary . married! .
Pete & Mary were married in April this year at the Victoria Park Golf Course in Herston. Photographing this wedding was mostly relaxed and stress free – Pete & Mary didn’t want a great deal of photographs and they were happy for me to photograph the goings on of the day rather than setting up a lot of more formal photographs. On the other hand, I also felt a lot more pressure to do a good job than usual photographing this wedding because Pete & Mary will soon be my brother & sister-in-law!
Being asked to photograph a wedding for a friend or family member is always such an honour. Pete & Mary, thank you for asking me to photograph your special day and I’m so pleased that you’re happy with your images - I can’t wait to see your finished album!
Mary’s father gave a piece of beautiful jewellry to her mother when each of her children were born - Mary wore all of this on her wedding day and each piece was just stunning.
Mary’s mother – lucky owner of all of those beautiful jewels!
I have no idea what was said, or who said it, but I love this series of photos of Mary with her sister Ruth. Ruth also made Mary’s beautiful wedding gown, along with her own dress and pretty much dressed Mary’s whole family that day!
Mary’s mother made one of the funniest wedding speeches I ever have heard :)

These are great photos and the commets that accompany them are very thoughtful. I have known Mary for a long time and you have certainly captured her personality in these photos.
Thanks Karen G
