Sarah & Rob

I’m really excited to be sharing another wedding with you from my home turf of Melbourne. In fact, Sarah & Rob’s wedding couldn’t be more Melbourne if they tried! Scroll down and you’ll see what I mean.

My favorite aspect of photographing this story was undoubtedly capturing the couple’s unique personalities and how they magically combine together. Sarah rocks a cheerful, energetic and vibrant vibe. While Rob can manage to keep up with his vivacious bride, he is very much a gentleman and represents the more chilled, calming influence of the two. They balance each other out perfectly. It was also a pleasure capturing these guys with their gorgeous little son, Sonny, who spent the day taking it all in with innocent curiosity and bewilderment. Sonny won’t likely remember it, which made it extra special for me capturing him being part of his Mum & Dad’s wedding.

I love that I work with REAL people. For Rob, he was quite nervous about the idea of having his picture taken. This is quite common with the couples I work with – rarely are bride and groom professional models. In my mind, it is part of my role to help break down those barriers and put my couples at ease so they feel comfortable and show their true character. I really loved being able to do that for these two.

So, I hope you enjoy perusing this heartfelt, fun and sparkly Melbourne wedding, just as much as I did photographing it.

Sib & Jonny

 

Sib only asked for one thing… “Eric! I have a ridiculously large love for cows and would love to have a photo of us with a cow (or cows!) in the background.” So we did. Sib in her fancy wedding dress jumped a big gate and tiptoed around fresh cowpats so I could fulfill her special request. I even think we got some ok photos sans Cow as well.

But seriously though, behind the laughs, it was very clear to me that there is a deep and sincere love that runs between these two. So, as much as I love cows (and I really do), it was those heartfelt moments that were the most special to capture.

As much as I love my destination work, I equally love shooting on home turf, so I am really excited to share more stories like this one.

I hope you enjoy checking out Sib & Jonny’s wedding day…
