Ivan and Indah 18th December 2008



Ivan and Indah's wedding was on Saturday the 18th December 2008 and was our last wedding for the year. I have to say what a wedding to end off on! No detail was overlooked on this beautiful occasion, the flowers, the decorations, everything was breathtaking including the stunning bride. It was such a beautiful moment when Ivan saw Indah coming down the aisle, we all had to hold back the tears.




After the ceremony in Subiaco, the bridal party and family headed to Burswood for the traditional tea ceremonies. What an amazing lunch we had afterwards at the Yu Restaurant, yummo we sure were spoilt!







Next we headed for a quick photo session at the Kings Park pine plantation and the blue boat shed on Mounts Bay Road. There were plenty of giggles as the amazing photographer David from Axioo kept everything happy and fun.






The reception was held on Matilda Bay foreshore in a marquee. It was one of the most beautiful set ups I have ever seen! The decorations, the food, the dessert. It looked like it was all out of a magazine, wow! What an amazing job Cathrin from CD Weddings did to organise such a day. This wedding was the first time I have ever seen belly dancers do a floor show and it certainly got the crowd going, what a fantastic way to open up the dance floor.



Thank you so much Indah and Ivan for allowing us to be part of your amazing day. You are both such kind people it was a pleasure to share your day with you.



Here is Ivan and Indah's wedding trailer. For those who are new to the concept it is basically a preview clip which the couple receive shortly after their wedding day, prior to receiving their full DVD edit. For any of our current clients, if you are interested in purchasing the wedding trailer for your own wedding, please contact us before your wedding date.




Jeff and Amanda 13th December 2008



Jeff and Amanda's wedding was held on Saturday the 18th December 2008 at Caversham House. It was such a gorgeous day for an outdoor ceremony and an even better day to arrive by boat which Amanda and her bridesmaids did. What a way to make an entrance!




Caversham House is such a beautiful location for photographs and Amanda and Jeff were so photogenic it made our job quite easy!



The reception was held in the marquee at Caversham which has been revamped since we were last there and is looking quite flash!



We were kept on our toes for this reception as the guests had a fantastic time on the dance floor and kept the party going! Congratulations on a beautiful wedding day Amanda and Jeff and we look forward to editing your wedding video.

We are parents!!! -The birth of Jasmine Grace


This is our beautiful little baby girl Jasmine Grace Turner born on the 7th of November 2008 at Rockingham General Hospital weighing 3.18kg (7 pounds) She arrived at 11.39am after 9 hours of labour. We are all doing very well and Kristen is even back to filming weddings! Thank you all for your well wishes and support, it is most appreciated.


We have created the following short tribute video of Jasmine, it only runs for 2 minutes.












Craig Shortlisted for host of Top Gear Australia & our prize Top Gear Europe Trip.

Well this is news that has managed to evade our blog up until now as we were waiting to see how it panned out exactly. Craig was excited to recently have been short listed as a potential host of the motoring TV program “Top Gear Australia”
The SBS incarnation of the popular BBC motoring program ran an open casting call in a search to un-earth new talent to fill the Australian Equivalent roles of Clarkson, Hammond and May (hosts of the popular UK Top Gear) The nation wide call out resulted in over 4000 video applications Australia wide.

Although unsuccessful at making the final cut, Craig was honored to be one of the few shortlisted to meet with the shows producers and to been one of the youngest to be considered for the role.
The application consisted of written and video components and as some of you may know Craig and I were over the moon last year to win a business class trip to London for our Top Gear Competition video clip entry. Once the producers had reviewed this they contacted Craig early in the process and kept in regular contact to ensure he was applying.

Everything worked out for best in the end as shortly after Craig's interview we were delighted to find out that I was pregnant with a baby girl. The shows producers said if successful it would have required a lot of time away from home and a possibly a move to Sydney which would have have been very difficult with a baby on the way.

For those unfamiliar with our original top gear video and London trip I have posted the video below.
The previous competition called for viewers to discuss their own car in a “top gear” style manner so I filmed Craig taking a “tongue and cheek” look at our 1975 Chrysler Galant. This video won via a public vote! This laid the early foundation for what later became his audition video.




Our business class tickets to London last year represented a fantastic opportunity to see some of Europe so we ended up taking a few weeks off and with my sister and brother in law, we visited the UK (London, Greenwich and Bath) France (Paris), Italy (Rome, The Vatican City) and Greece (Athens, Larissa, Nei Pori and Platamonis) where we caught up with relations.
We had the time of our lives.
