Minden Retreat

I am so excited to share with the world pictures of the lovely rustic Minden Retreat.
This all-in-one venue is fantastic for your wedding, function, reunion or camp. The retreat is so versatile, and only 25 minutes out of Ipswich on the way to Toowoomba. The retreat has a massive function hall which can seat 120+ (and a great commercial kitchen).
There are hotel style family rooms, dormitory rooms, and a picturesque place to camp. These facilities have a pool, basketball court, under covered BBQ area... the list goes on.

I am so fortunate to have been able to take photos at Minden Retreat. This is the result from our treasure the dress session with Claire and Andrew a few weeks ago.

The amazing Mark from Inkjet Labs was so very helpful in the framing of this amazing photo. (Yes, I did say amazing twice in the one sentence!) I almost cried when I picked up the print from his studio. Thank you Mark!!! 



The print just sits so perfectly on the wall at the retreat. It's like it was just meant to be :) (happy sigh!)


I am really looking forward to many more weddings and events out here. 

Seriously guys, you have to come out!!!

The magic continues

The magic continued for Claire and Andrew on Friday. We met out at the amazing Minden Retreat and captured some great photos. The sky was threatening to bucket, but it cleared beautifully so we could take the photos - And how amazing did the clouds look!?!


It was really exciting to get all dressed up in their wedding attire and have some fun!





It is reassuring for a bride to know that your second day session, does not have to "trash the dress". You spend so much time effort and money looking for the perfect dress, why would you want to get it dirty?! (Although that is lots of fun too!)


Sparks flew between the two love birds, and I am very fortunate to be able to share this with them both.

Looking for a great all in one venue for your wedding or function? You have to pop over to Mark at http://www.mindenretreat.com.au and say Hi from me.

Time to Party!

I can't believe that this little man is turning one on Thursday! 
Wow! 
It seems like only a couple of months ago I took his newborn photographs! 
This little dude had me in hysterics as we took his One year old photos today. He is so funny. 
We started his session playing with balloons in the studio...

Then, the cake came out! Daddy did a fantastic job making the cake this morning. Well done Daddy!!


All was going well until... we touched the cake!!! Hahaha poor little man, he did NOT want this thing touching him! 




But we finished the session off with lots of laughs as he had a massive bubble bath! Hooray for clean bubbles!! LOL, literally. 

Thank you for playing with me today, and I hope you have a fantastic 1st birthday on Thursday.
