It was a thrill to be asked to photograph the baptism of Alaria, not just because she is a beautiful baby, but because I had photographed her parents, Glenn and Shireen’s wedding. Flaxton Gardens proved to be an ideal location, as once again the weather was not conducive to an outdoor ceremony, which was Glenn and Shireen’s original idea.  Have a happy life, Alaria.

Ben and Larissa had high hopes of wonderful location shots in a few of the choice locations around Maleny, but the weather was against them and it poured for much of the day. Fortunately the owners of Maleny Lodge came to their aid, and we were able to spend time enjoying the inside of their beautiful Queenslander, with the log fire roaring, and the champagne flowing, a potential disaster was averted.     

Darran and Aggie were blessed with great weather, and a fabulous venue for their wedding on the Channer property. I just loved being part of it, there was so much fun going on.

‘Jambo’ Penny,
I just wanted to say thank you for all the photos you have given us we have looked through them and they are amazing…!  We have had numerous viewings.  We would really like to thank you for a job well done.
Please enjoy your Easter weekend with the family and you will be highly recommend to any and all of our friends.  Please feel free to use my email as a reference for potential clients if you ever feel so inclined.
Many thanks again from both of us. Daz and Ags.

Well – this was a colourful assignment. Flame Hill Winery were hosting a grape stomp, and model Megan was daubed in bright swirls of blues and reds. This event was a great success for Flame Hill. If you haven’t had lunch at this wonderful location, you have been missing out. 

Welcome to the world, Ruby. Congratulations to Mum and Dad. She is a beautiful addition to the family.

Just before Christmas the Outridges and I had a fun time wandering around their beautiful home at Maleny, taking photos and meeting the livestock – from rats to bulls. Following this, an album has been designed to provide a moment in time for the family.

Time has run away with me again, and we are now in the middle of February – Valentine’s Day just around the corner. The Christmas period is normally fairly quiet where weddings are concerned, but not so this year. I haven’t even had time to get my Christmas letter out! Here are a few of the favourite weddings I was fortunate enough to play a part in.

GRAEME AND KATE: THE HOUSE OF LAURELS

STUART AND LAURA

Unfortunately the ceremony never took place under the Fig Tree as planned, due to torrential rain – but we went back later and took these photos.

DAVID AND CHRISTINA:  THE LITTLE WHITE WEDDING CHURCH & THE KEY BAR

Daniel and Phillipa married in Phillipa’s parents property, with beautiful views towards the Sunshine Coast. Their children could have stolen the show, by they were no match for their handsome parents.

“Hi Penny, I want to say a very big thankyou , I have looked at the photos on your website and they are wonderful thanks for all your help and for taking such beautiful photos” .

 Troy and Amy began their day at Coolum beach for a ceremony overlooking the crystal blue seas. Then it was a race up the Blackall Range to get to the Glasshouse Mountains paddock to catch the last of the sun’s rays. Finally we headed for Clois for the reception. No hanging around for these two!

This was a real beach wedding set at Marcoola. The day was glorious, the couple delightful. Everything was just right…

“Thank you so so very much Penny!
They are amazing!!!! Now the problem is which to choose!
Thank you so very much for everything, we both really appreciate it! Thanks again for beautiful shots!”
