Planning a wedding? Then you will have to attend The Wedding Workshop. I am pleased to say that In Shot Productions will be there this year, talking about video and answering any questions that you may have. There are a few tickets left so be quick and visit the site. There is champagne and heaps and heaps of information to be gathered. This amazing event has been organised by Cathrin D'Entremont from CD Weddings, she sure knows her stuff so don't miss out!
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.
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.
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.
Craig and I attended this years Wedding Workshop as suppliers giving advice on choosing wedding videographers. The workshop was held at Tompkins Park on the 26th March 2008. 
Guests were treated with a complimentary glass of champagne on arrival, a free copy of Your Bride's Guide, free hot nibblies and a chance to win ten door prizes! Not to mention all of the invaluable advice given by industry professionals on what to look for when booking all different aspects of your wedding. These gorgeous photos are courtesy of the beautiful photographer Natasja from NK Photography who also spoke on the night. Thank you Cathrin from CD Weddings for putting on such a fantastic night.

Recently Craig and I purchased a new lens for our digital stills camera and we are so thrilled with the results. It takes such wonderful pictures. Our other motive for purchasing the lens was that Craig will soon be adapting this to be used with our video cameras so we can achieve the same look (depth of field) but on video tape! I can't wait!
This is my sister's dog Duke. It was nice of him to pose for us wasn't it?
Recently Craig and I decided to have professional shots taken of us to use on our website. Who could we ask but the beautiful Jen from Annarose Photography. She made us feel so comfortable and relaxed, so relaxed in fact that she struggled to get shots of us not laughing!
I love this one she took of Craig, he looks like a model!
Thank you Jen you truly are a magician to make me look half decent in a photo. We are so thrilled with these photos we never expected to have photos that really looked so much like artwork. You really are a master at your craft.
If you would like to check out the rest of our photographs from the shoot you can visit Anna Rose Photography blog here.
Last Wednesday we attending The Wedding Workshop held at Tompkins on the Swan. It was really a fantastic experience talking to a group of bride's and groom's, mothers, sisters and friends who were all there for one reason, to plan their wedding! What I loved about the workshop was that it wasn't to promote the vendors there but to give the guests valuable information for when they have to book suppliers for their own wedding.
Craig and I have been in the wedding industry now for 6 years and have videoed hundreds of them and there was so much information that we didn't even know. It was a great experience for us as well as we are not used to speaking in front of an audience. We are usually hiding away behind our cameras so to say I was shaking like a leaf before I went up to speak is an understatement!
We did however get wonderful feedback from the audience and many commented on our promo video that we played to show what a professional wedding video looks like. Craig and I felt very elated after that!
Cathrin from CD Weddings was the organizer and she did a fantastic job in planning the event. Each couple received a free Your Brides Guide to WA magazine when they entered which in itself is worth $20, so you get most of your money back right there. However my favourite part of the night had to be at the end when Kakes by Karen was giving out free samples from her gorgeous wedding cakes. Oh my, lucky Craig was there to drag me away otherwise I'd still be there slowly turning into a massive whale!
