Karl & Jody's {Wedding}!!! Saturday 2nd May 2009

We had such a great time on Saturday at Karl & Jody's wedding! We had an early start, rocked up to the studio, packed the car and hit the road for Marburg. For those of you who are just like me and have practically no knowledge on towns and where the heck they are, it is kind of near Gatton... which is kind of near Toowoomba... if you get my drift... :)

So, Brett and I arrived about an hour early to spy out some great shot spots and BOY, did we have a pleasant surprise! We first went to "Woodlands of Marburg" where the girls were getting ready and where the ceremony and reception were to be held. Woodlands itself is surrounded by beautiful rolling hills and vineyards. And there are the yummiest photo spots all around the place to add variation to shots, like old farm machinery, broken down buildings... etc...etc...pretty much a photo-graph-ers dream!

We then headed over to where Karl and the boys were getting ready (which was conveniently only a few paddocks away at Karl's aunties house). The boys did take their time in the bathroom, but they all scrubbed up very handsome when they finally decided emerge. I do wish though, that I did *accidentally* step on some ones sunnies...if you get my drift Struan... jk :)
After some great country shots of the boys, it was literally a hop-skip-and a *JUMP* back to the girls at Woodlands. Jody looked absolutely STUNNING! She choose a beautiful white gown with red embroidery detail to match the bridesmaids dresses. She also wore her great-great (-great?) grandmas broach which is about 150 years old! I think it nearly brought a tear to everyone’s eye as her proud mum pinned it on. :)

The heart-melting ceremony was conducted by a Karl's auntie, Lee Cropper, who also happens to be a celebrant. :) Lee is probably one of the nicest celebrants we have ever worked with and we would totally recommended her to all of our customers! After the usual group shot and family/friends pics we headed off for bridal party shots. We had a great time getting to know all the bridal party as we were snapping away. A few of you sooooooOOOO remind me of a few of our buddies, funny!

Congrats guys, have fun in Malaysia and best wishes for an amazing future together!
