Mel and Matt have been together since they were 15 years old, they are so cute and so much in love it's infectious! We had a fabulous day with their family and friends celebrating this wonderful marriage, oh and capturing the memories in photos....

We met Mel and her bridesmaids getting ready at the Vibe Hotel North Sydney, there was lots of giggles, bubbles and fun with these girls, all so excited for their beautiful friend. Then we met Matt and the boys outside St Thomas' Anglican Church, North Sydney. It's such a beautiful church, and the lighting is lovely for weddings. You couldn't help getting swept up into the fairytale here, and both Mel & Matt were very emotional.

Following the ceremony, the weather looked a little dicey so we stayed outside this wonderful church for some photographs before heading down to Balmoral Beach with the bridal party. Here the rain held off, how could it not for these two, and we had very dramatic skies, contrasting with this fun loving crowd. The girls got a little cold, and the boys obliged with their coats, plus we couldn't hold Matt down as he was jumping for joy.... Then onto Georges' Headland for some more fun, and The Tea Room Gunners' Barracks, for some very eloquent and funny speeches. Even a very moving song from Mel's Dad, that had us in tears behind the lens! Before the party continued into the night with groving on the dancefloor.....

    We chose J Roberts Photography because of the natural, warm photos they produce. From our first meeting we weren't disappointed. Justin and Jen were incredibly professional, knowledgeable and open to the style and feeling we wanted to convey on the day. They listened intently and gave advice when required. On the day, the photographers played an integral part. They were relaxed and warm which put the bridal party at ease which resulted in natural photographs, yet gave good direction for those 'wow' moments. Amongst other obvious things on the day, we were given overwhelmingly good feedback on our choice of photographer. The general consensus was how surprised people were with how well they blended into the 'party' with warmth, humour and flexibility. Finally, after just a few weeks we received our pictures! We couldn't be more thrilled. Tears welled as each picture unleashed the emotion of that moment. They captured us being 'us' and those subtle special moments that you aren't even aware are happening. Thanks Jen and Justin for grabbing each moment and encapsulating every tiny detail including the emotion.
