Anna & Mike

March 24th, 2010 by Jason

I only wanted to see you laughing in the purple rain.  Michael Lane, Aaanna Laaaaane.

We arrived home from this wedding and something inside urged me to tweet it to the world. It was 2am, we’d been working for 15 hours straight, our compact flash cards were completely empty and batteries almost drained, and yet we were still buzzing from the joy and excitement of the day.

And what a day.

Anna & Mike had returned from Abu Dhabi briefly for their wedding, and were keen on spending as much time as possible with their guests having the most fun they possibly could! Anna started off by getting ready in her beautiful family home, and we moved to St Pauls for the ceremony. After a brief stop in a local park for some formals we returned to the family home, were a huge marquee had been erected on the front lawn for the ensuing reception. After a round of the most entertaining speeches we’ve ever witnessed the dancefloor erupted – a combination of the Photobooth and craftily gathered dress-up closet (a well-kept secret from all of the bridal party and guests) helping the guests. Cross-dressing was quickly followed by impromptu limbo, improvised dancing, a huge conga line and a final rendition of Prince’s “Purple Rain” rounded off the night.

Brilliant.

We recently took a trip to the Makara coastline for a few outdoor maternity shots with Katy & Owen, who were keen to capture her belly only weeks before giving birth. Congrats to you both on the birth of baby Sophie!

Recent Photobooth captures

March 13th, 2010 by Aneta

The Photobooth has been out in force lately around Wellington, so here’s a few favourite snapshots that have appeared behind the ‘safety’ of the curtains.

As someone posted on a slideshow video from a recent wedding – “coolest wedding thingee ever”!
