Dwayne and Tahni 10th January 2009

Dwayne and Tahni's wedding was last Saturday the 10th January 2009 at St Michael the Archangel in Leederville, this is one of our favourite churches it is so beautiful. Tahni looked absolutely stunning and it was such a pleasure to video her, she really knew how to hold herself, it was like videoing a model.

After the beautiful ceremony the photographer Lynne Whitfield King, took the bridal party to East Perth for the photo session. She had such amazing set ups, it all looked like something out of a bridal magazine.

Thank you Tahni and Dwayne for allowing us to be part of your magical day and we are really looking forward to editing your wedding video.

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.

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

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.

Andy and Linda 1st November 2008

Andy and Linda's wedding was on Saturday the 1st November 2008 held at St Patricks Church in Fremantle and the reception was held at Frasers Restaurant in Kings Park. Linda made a stunning bride, I just absolutely loved her dress, it was very Audrey Hepburn. Then I saw her Gucci shoes! Great taste and she looked just gorgeous.

Kirsten from Compose photography took the bridal party to East Perth and Burswood for photographs. Andy and Linda were so photogenic it made our job very easy. I love this picture it looks like a Tony Barlow advertisement!

This picture makes me laugh, we were all getting a shot of the wedding rings, it looks like Andy and Linda are superstars and we're the paparazzi!

How cool is this wedding cake? I loved the little figurines on it. The little groom (which you can't see in the photo) is ignoring the bride while talking on his phone! Priceless!

Congratulations to you both on such a beautiful wedding day. We hope you enjoy your honeymoon in the Maldives, it sounds just divine!

Jeff and Justine 18th October 2008

Jeff and Justine's wedding was on Saturday the 18th October 2008 held at the beautiful Cottesloe Civic Centre and reception held at the Claremont Yacht Club. Jeff and Justine had the traditional tea ceremonies in the morning where poor Jeff was made to endure some pretty difficult tasks to get to his bride. He was such a good sport that he ended up with lipstick on his face and was still laughing! Jeff I also loved your MC Hammer dance, it was FANTASTIC!



Jeff, Justine and their bridal party were so much fun, the whole photo session was spent laughing. Robyn and Amy from Robyn Cusack Photography took the bridal party to quite a few different locations including the foreshore and some cool alley ways in Claremont.
















































I absolutely loved Jeff & Justine's wedding cupcakes. They seriously tasted as yummy as they looked. It was certainly a treat for the drive home.

























Congratulations to you both on such a beautiful wedding day. Your families are so hospitable and friendly it was such a pleasure to be part of your special day. Have a fantastic honeymoon.

Mark & Brenda 11th October 2008

Mark and Brenda's wedding was on Saturday the 11th October 2008 and what a beautiful wedding it was. The ceremony was held at St Mary's Catholic Church in Leederville and the reception was held at the Parmelia Hilton, Perth
























Brenda is such a striking, beautiful woman, she just shone in front of the camera. She made our job very easy. After the simple but beautiful ceremony, the photographers, Chevaughn and David from Portraits of Love, took the bridal party to UWA for photos. Mark and Brenda are such fun and friendly people that the day just went so fast. It turns out that Mark and Craig went to the same high school but were in different grades!

I love this photo, it looks like Mark and Brenda were celebrities and we were the paparazzi hounding them, well to us they were celebrities!



I absolutely loved Mark & Brenda's wedding cake, made by Kakes By Karen. It was designed around Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes' wedding cake with a few minor changes. Wow what an amazing cake and Brenda was nice enough to organise for us to take some home! It was just as yummy as it looked.























Here is Mark and Brenda'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.

David and Nichola 28th September 2008

David and Nichola's wedding was on Sunday the 28th September 2008 and kicked off the beginning of the wedding season for us. The ceremony and reception was held at a private estate in the beautiful Margaret River. We love videoing weddings down south as the locations are so lush and new to us. The weather was absolutely gorgeous, the cloud Gods certainly smiled upon them.

Craig and I were absolutely thrilled to work with Cathrin D'Entremont from CD Weddings again, she is so much fun and makes everyone feel at ease. We just love working with a wedding planner as it makes the wedding day so much smoother and easier. Cathrin handled everything that went on during the day. Having her there meant David and Nichola could enjoy their day without being interrupted by any problems or questions that arose.

After the emotionally charged ceremony, the photographers Stephen and Ros Blakeney took the bridal party to a winery, the beach and this gorgeous Greek Orthodox Church for photos. Nichola is one of the most photogenic brides I have ever seen, she has amazing eyes that just light up when she smiles, David could not stop staring at her the whole day and you couldn't blame him!

Below is David and Nichola'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.
