Kate & Marin | Emerald Lakes | Gold Coast wedding video

November 26th, 2011

Gold Coast Wedding Video

Kate & Marin booked with us ages ago and the bride was particularly looking forward to their big day for a long time. We knew the shoot could be a bit hectic considering the bride and groom have five kids, but we always enjoy the random and funny things children bring to a shoot. Not to mention the cute factor!

I started the video with the boys at their hotel in Broadbeach where they got an early jump on the days celebrations :P Next it was onto the ladies’ preparations at the Q1 building just up the road. I was pleased to see one of my favorite makeup artists, Donna Sullivan, already there and doing her usual brilliant job. I always attempt to get to the bride early enough to get the makeup and hair, but Donna can be quite efficient! I can’t recommend her highly enough and you can find her details on our site or by clicking the link.

Soon after Gold Coast based photographer, Josh, from White Pearl Photography arrived. Josh is another one of our recommended suppliers and his work is stunning.

The wedding ceremony was held outside at Emerald Lakes Golf Course with the reception at the Watermark Hotel in Surfers Paradise.

Tiffany & Tony // The Hyatt, Sanctuary Cove

December 13th, 2010

Tiffany & Tony were married in December at the Hyatt Chapel in Sanctuary Cove – a place I have filmed many times before.

One of things that really stood out to me on the day was the amazing landscapes we had during our location shoot at the Spit in Main Beach. The sun was shining, but the backdrop on the horizon was dark and cloudy – a great contrast and something not seen often.

I was fortunate to be working around two professional friends of mine: celebrant Karen Miles and photographer Josh White of White Pearl Photography.

Filmed with a Canon 5d Mark II
