Creative Royal Melbourne Wedding Photos

I’ve known Linda + Rick for a long time…Linda and I went to junior high together! She is now the 4th person I’ve photographed from Fairview South (Thank you Facebook for helping reconnect old friends!)! Rick and I also went to high school together – and go figure…Linda + Rick dated for a brief time in high school! Their relationship was rekindled years later and now they are married! What a story! I was thankful to have been their wedding photographer to help capture their special day! Here’s one of my favorites from Royal Melbourne wedding photos!

Found a reflection for her creative wedding dress photo!

Definitely had to take a photo of her Jimmy Choo shoes!

She had beautiful Swarovski jewelry –

 

One of her jr bridesmaids…affectionately known as Linda’s ‘mini-me’ 

 

The ladies with their matching sweat getting ready outfits-

She carried this photo on her wedding bouquet- in memory of her late father

A beautiful portrait of the bride-

We didn’t have a lot of time for photos…but we did manage to get a full bridal party photo!

Royal Melbourne Wedding Photos: Ceremony

For those that don’t know…in Japanese tradition, it’s good luck to have a thousand hand folded origami cranes gifted to the couple at their wedding! Their wedding officiant happens to be my Aunt! This wedding was a “Nakai Production” =)

One of those moments, that only a few people witness…Linda’s mom has a huge smile on her face!

They honored their parents by serving them tea-

After we finished with family photos, I was able to get the bride and groom outside for a few photos before the reception began!

I love her smile in this photo!

During the reception, Linda + Rick changed into traditional Korean wedding outfits!

 

First dance-

 

Linda danced with all five of her nephews – it was so cute and fun!

 

Thank you Linda + Rick for having me as your wedding photographer! It was such a wonderful celebration! I’ll never forget that dance with all of Linda’s nephews! Soooo cute & funny! I hope you are able to relive your wedding day through your images!

 

with love,
