Business Photographer

business photography

Every good website needs great photographs, and employing a corporate photographer to do your business photography means your website, and business, will stand out from your competitors!

Jamee from Liqwyd Solutions, a Redlands based plumbing company, did just that! Jamee made the process incredibly easy, with a list of photos they wanted for the website. There was a great mix of staff shots and some ‘on the job’ photos too.

Having professional business photographs on your website adds a level of professionalism that phone photos simply won’t give you! Looking professional on your store front gives your clients the confidence that they are dealing with a professional business.

We are able to do staff headshots, live ‘on the job shots’ and any close up and detail photos that will highlight what services your business offers. And we also travel to you!

We will bring your clients attention to your branding and logo, as in the business photographs above.

Every business is different so we listen to your wishes and work accordingly. We can offer advice in terms of lighting and posing, and welcome all input!

A business photography photo shoot doesn’t have to take all day. Liqwyd Solutions received around 50 high resolution digital images from a one hour photo session, so we don’t have to stop your staff from missing too much work! We also don’t mind early starts if that works better for your work day!

Every business photography job is different but for an obligation-free quote please contact us and whilst you’re here why not check out Liqwyd Solution’s website!

Sirromet Wedding Photography

Sirromet Wedding Photography

Being an Alexandra Hills-based Wedding Photographer means that I have a soft spot for photographing weddings in the Redlands! One of my favourite wedding venues anywhere in South-East Queensland happens to be in the Redlands; Sirromet Winery!

Sirromet Wedding Photography is amazing and I am always incredibly excited to head there to photograph a wedding. The venue is a one stop venue, with beautiful accommodation, several fantastic wedding ceremony locations, several amazing opportunities for bridal party wedding photos, and some incredible wedding reception options.

I was lucky enough to photograph Kelly and Mark’s amazing Sirromet wedding in May this year and the day was absolutely perfect! Kelly got ready in Merlot House on location at Sirromet Winery. I arrived early to photograph the hair and make up, then headed to photograph the boys in nearby Birkdale.

The boys were suitably relaxed and looked dapper in their matching black suits and ties. Mark’s Dad Greg was even good enough to make me lunch! What a guy!

Back at Merlot House, the girls were ready so we did some final prepping photos and got some pre-wedding family photos before taking those deep breaths and heading to the wedding ceremony.

The ceremony took place at the laguna, a quieter area away from the winery, and beautifully located on a mirror-flat lake.

The ceremony was perfectly officiated by Natasha Hill (https://www.hillscelebrant.com.au/), a celebrant with whom I have worked several times. Natasha is amazing, relaxed and always fun to work with!

The ceremony had tears, smiles, and laughter and was the perfect location for this beautiful couple to say ‘I do’.

After a group photo and some family photos on site, I dragged the bridal party to the secret area behind the laguna which has the most amazing light in the late afternoon, and is well away from prying eyes! I had met most of the bridal party a few years earlier at the wedding of Amanda and Chris (who were also in the bridal party) so it was a very relaxed shoot, and with a bride and groom as good looking as Kelly and Mark, it was a very easy task!

And so to the wedding reception; the part of the day when everyone can finally exhale and let their hair down! Sirromet has some amazing options for the perfect wedding reception. Kelly and Mark’s reception took place in the amazingly photogenic Barrel Room; one of my favourite reception venues to photograph!

The night was electric and so much fun! The speeches were heart-felt and sincere (and not overly long!) and the first dance was incredible!

I left the party once the dancing had kicked in and after a long but fun day I drove home; a mere 7 minutes away! No wonder I love Sirromet Wedding Photography!

Rainforest Gardens Wedding Photography

Mt Cotton Wedding

Rainforest Gardens

If it wasn’t already evident from previous blog posts; I love what I do for a living! Especially when I get to spend the day with amazing people like Courtney and Aaron! What a fabulous day!

Rainforest Gardens Weddings

And what a perfect location! Rainforest Gardens in Mt Cotton is a truly amazing, self contained venue in the Redlands and is one of my favourite venues to photograph. The grounds are spectacular, the staff are awesome, and being self-contained, there is no reason to pack up and head off site for photos!

But first, the getting ready pics!

The atmosphere with Courtney and her bridesmaids was amazing – so laid back and relaxed, and being the only guy in the room made me the focus of their jokes:) A few drinks and a few photos (and a few tears!) later and I headed off to Rainforest gardens to pick on the boys!

Again the atmosphere was relaxed and upbeat, and the boys seemed pretty laid back. Until the car arrived!

With the bride’s arrival, it all gets real!

Yes there were tears and yes there were smiles, but all the best weddings have these! Happily Cassandra Bowles was on hand to officiate and keep everyone in check! Cass did an amazing job and was the perfect celebrant for Court and Aaron mixing up the sentiment with the humour:) You can check out her web page here: www.cassandrabowles.com

The ceremony is, of course, the most important part of the day and is always filled with emotion. I love hearing personal vows and seeing who will be the first to cry (spoiler: Courtney!)

And once the signing has been completed and the ceremony finalised, it is generally the photographers turn to take over! My time to shine! And Rainforest gardens has the perfect spot for a group photo, and the grounds are a stunning location for bridal party photography!

Oh, did I mention Rainforest Gardens has llamas? They have llamas 🙂

Wedding Photographer

The best time of day for wedding photography is the Golden Hour; that last hour before the sun sets when everything looks warm and gorgeous and happily Rainforest Gardens has a spectacular hilltop lookout to watch the sunset on your most magical of days:)

And how to better a perfect afternoon? With a perfect evening! Bring on the reception!

And with Aaron’s speech drifting into the ether, my night was over. What a truly spectacular day in a truly spectacular location.

Congratulations Guys!

Cake Smash Photos: Mia’s 1st Birthday

Cake Smash Photography:

Date: 4th February 2017

Location: At home in Chermside

Being completely honest, the success rate of a cake smash photo shoot isn’t all that high! Quite often the poor child looks on confused, wondering why they are being told to play with food all of a sudden after years of being told that playing with food is wrong! Not Mia! Mia loved it and dived straight in, covering herself in cake and getting a good few mouths full too! And it made for an awesome cake smash photo shoot!

It was quite warm that day but happily Mia’s Mum and dad (Lydia and Anthony) had a Bali hut in their front yard that gave us some shade from the heat, meaning Mia could contrate on the task at hand!

And she didn’t need too much convincing! Even with a good crowd of onlookers, she dived right in and had a blast!

Happily, Mia’s elder sister Eleni was on hand to help when Mia started to flag!

Lydia had sent me through a handful of cake smash photos she had found online and that she would like to capture the feel of – and I have to say the colours and styling that Lydia did was perfect! I adore the colours in these cake smash photos – the pinks and purples work amazingly well!

After fifteen minutes or so, Mia’s belly started to get full and she needed a little rest from her cake smash! So cute!

As Mia started to tire, Eleni, Lydia and Anthony (bravely!) dived in for some family photos!

And then it was time for a quick hose down and a change of clothes for the remainder of the party!

And after an amazingly fun party and highly successful cake smash photo shoot, I headed home with a piece of Mia’s amazing stripey cake that Lydia had made herself! Happy 1st Birthday Mia, and thanks so much for having me capture it!

I just wanted to let you know we’ve received our photos from Mia’s party. And can I just say… I simply cannot put into words how VERY happy I am with them!!! They are amazing! I’ve never had SO many photos returned from a photographer that are all so damn good! So thank you again so very much for helping us create these memories for such a special occasion.
