Natascha & Ty’s Sioux Binding Ceremony

| Natalie

So here’s part two!

So, along with eloping down at Belongil Beach in Byron Bay, Tash and Ty decided to have a Sioux binding ceremony and include their family and friends in the celebration of their love. Ty’s mother is an Elder of the Oglala Tribe, which is part of the Sioux Nation, she also performed the ceremony, which was amazing and beautiful to watch and be a part of.

Here’s where it gets cooler.. Tash is Chilean, and the wedding had a Mexican twist! What a party!!

I love you Tash and Ty, thank you so much for letting me be a part of both of your big, beautiful and unique days!

AFI

I was chosen to photograph AFI when they played in Brisbane last year. Super stoked as it was a day before my birthday and I got to meet the guys too!

If you have known me for a while, you would know that I used to photograph bands under the name “Total Immortal Photography” which is taken from an AFI song title, so getting to photograph the guys for a second time in my life was amazing!

 

Natascha & Ty’s Elopement

| Natalie

When you get asked to photograph an elopement and are trusted to keep a giant secret, it’s a BIG deal and such an honour.

Tash and Ty decided to tie the knot down at Belongil Beach, Byron Bay NSW late in December last year with just two of their close friends, and in a style true to both of them. Imagine a surfer/skater wedding, red Chuck Taylor’s, skate decks, the smell of the beach and walking down the sandy isle to “Spray Paint Love” by Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes. Absolute perfection.

I was extremely excited to work with Paul Voge on Celebrant duties, and the amazing Alisha Hennessy who did Tash’s hair and make up.

Here are some photos of the day, stay tuned for a part 2!

Baby River

| Natalie

It was a joy to meet new mum Tahmai and her little human River after I was asked to take a few photos of one of the calmest babies I have ever met!

He is by far the easiest model I have ever had the pleasure of photographing, and I hope to give him a cuddle sometime in the future!

Glam-O-Tage! At Sabotage Social!

Glam-O-Tage was glitter, leopard print, pointy boots, big hair and guys in tight pants. What more could you ask for?! Throw in a bit of Skid Row, Def Leppard, KISS and Gunners along with walk off, wail off and riff roulette competitions and you have got the foundations of a perfect night!

Everyone was kept messy and well hydrated by the ever so lovely Jack Daniels and Young Henrys.
