The New Blog!!!

Whilst my 'blogger' blog has been kind to me over the past couple of years - I have finally taken the plunge to design a new blog. I was really concerned about how long it was going to take me but it has worked out waaay better than I could have planned.
It really is great! The images are so much LARGER!! And it has a lovely minimal design! Oh, and I even re-designed the logo and I'm lovin it. Oh and most importantly... you will now be able to comment effortlessly :)

So, please visit me in the future at www.angelicapeadyblog.com

See you at the new blog

After a week or more of rain Ben and I were preparing ourselves for a very wet wedding. We scouted out new and interesting wet weather locations and then the strangest thing happened... the sun came out and the weather turned out to be amazing :)

I had the pleasure of driving to the ceremony in the bridal car with Rachael and her father John. It was so sweet listening to John talking to Rachael and keeping those wedding day jitters at bay. Ben followed behind the guys in their Bentley and I love his shot of them driving in front.

After the ceremony we found a fabulous new location which was perfect and so close to the church. There were lots of shady spots under big trees to shade from the sun because, by this time it was pretty hot - it actually got to 38 degrees.

We left plenty of time for our photographs at Tebutts Observatory. We love Tebbutts! This was where Ben and I got married. It was such a pleasure to revisit this amazing location and catch up with all the staff. I've said it before but I would highly recommend Tebbutts for weddings. It's got such a relaxed country feel and the scenery is perfect.

We just Hawkesbury weddings.

Ceremony: St Andrews, Richmond
Reception: Tebbutts Observatory, Windsor
Hair and Makeup: Reel EFX

Bridal Shoot: Tahlia and Justyn

I LOVE BRIDAL SHOOTS!!! ♥ ♥ ♥

It's a bit of a luxury to photograph a bride and groom away from the wedding day but if you can arrange it, it ROCKS!!!!. There are no wedding day stresses and we're not rushed for time. We can also get a bit CRAZY to make it a little different from the actual wedding day - we can go to amazing locations and includes fun props - like balloons.
We LOVE making it interesting and have plenty of suggestions and we can even style the "Bridal Shoot" for you.

I had a particular vision in mind and had planned a fantastic beach and cliff session at Clovelly. It was going to be about balloons and sunshine and big blue sky - unfortunately as soon as I started clicking away it began to rain. While I was sitting in the car, waiting for the storm to pass (and trying to think of wet weather locations) I thought of the Art Gallery of NSW - I have always wanted to photograph there - it would be the perfect opportunity and a location that would be a little drier. Then the magic began to happen :)

I have included a few of my favourite images from the day. A special thanks to Tahlia and Justyn for being flexible and adventurous :) You both looked amazing!!!
