Elissa & Dan had both their ceremony & reception at Borrodell’s vinyard near Orange. It’s a beautiful venue, and without going anywhere else, we were still spolit for locations.

When Allisa & Tyson first came in, they were undecided about whether or not to travel the 20 mins each way out to Tyson’s family farm (knowing this would make the shoot time tight), or just have their bridal party wedding photos in Forbes. I encouraged them to think about what they would most value, when they look back 20 years from now.
Here is some of the story of their day, as told by Allisa…
Marisa Magiros & Jason Groake were married & had their reception (complete with straw picnic blankets & hot gormet catered hampers) at “Rosemerrin” a small property near Millthorpe.
Here is the day, as told by Marisa. (Warning, lots of pics!)
They say that behind every successful man, there’s a strong woman. If this is true, then Josh Scully is headed for the mountain tops. At long last, here are some of the photos from their wedding.

Tania & Garry were married 20 minutes west of Parkes in the restored church that Tania’s family had originally helped build. Afterwards there was time for a bridal party shoot in the country, before heading back into Parkes Golf Club for their reception.
Here are a few of Tania’s thoughts, and of course a few photos!
During the meal at Josh & Jody’s wedding last Saturday (more from their wedding later), I noticed a couple of girls who were obviously sweet on two of the groomsmen. Everyone else was busy eating, so with nothing to miss here, we stepped outside for a few minutes of fun.
So, here’s Sarah & Wousung, and Laura & Gussy!

Haylie Connaughton & Jamie Howarth were married on Nov 21st at Banjo Patterson Park near Orange, and had a very relaxed reception in a marquee on Jamie’s parent’s property at Clifton Grove.
Recently we’ve had a string of enquiries about whether we capture candid photographs of wedding guests, or just a mixture of candid and fashion style photos of the bridal party. (Looking back through this blog I can see why- we mainly post images of each bride & groom, leaving an unrealistic impression of our photography.)
To prove a point – the following are ONLY photos of Haylie & Jamie’s guests. To see images of this great couple, and rest of the day, contact Haylie!
Kathryn & Matthew were married in the Blue Mountains and had a wedding that showcased some of what Katoomba etc has to offer. They’ve just arrived back from their honeymoon, and I’m looking forward to them seeing these pics!

Andrew McDonald and Nicole Doherty were married in Gulgong, with their reception in Mudgee, and Nicole would have to be the most rain-proof bride I’ve ever photographed! She was absolutely determined to have an amazing wedding, and amazing photos to go with it, regardless of the weather.
Both times that we got out of the cars during the bridal party shoot, the light rain quickly turned into a solid downpour. But throwing off the umbrellas and her cares, Nicole insisted we keep shooting anyway.
As a bonus, on their way back from their honeymoon, Nicole and Andrew were able to stop by and approve the design of their premium album, meaning they’ll have it for Christmas.
Gemmah Shuttleworth & Sia Soliola were married at the Orange Uniting Parish Centre on Oct 17th.
They are now off honeymooning in the UK and France, where Sia is apparently slipping out between romantic dinners and backrubs, to play for New Zealand in the 2009 Four Nations Rugby League series… (Some guys will do ANYTHING to get out of shopping!)
Following are some of Gemmah’s thoughts, on their cross-cultural and beautiful wedding-

There was dancing in the streets when this wedding was announced! Andrew Moor & Diana Sievwright were married at St Mark’s Uniting on June 6th, and got back from their honeymoon yesterday. Graham’s children were sad at their return, as they’d been minding Diana’s & Noah’s dog “Cadbury” and didn’t want to give him back. (Dog minding service not normally available.)
Edited to add: Six months after her wedding Diana joined the team here at Renaissance Photography, as our photo editing and customer service manager. We’re delighted to now have Diana as a core part of everything we do.

Brooke & Craig were married in Cowra, just three and a half weeks after the council finished the City’s new function centre. Amazingly, their’s was the third wedding reception there since the scaffolding was removed- I’m not even sure it had been officially opened yet!
Sorry we’re behind in posting some wedding pics here. I’ve posted lots, so some of Brooke’s distant friends can get an idea of how much fun they missed out on.
