“It’s the dress!!” {Susan Wall – Bundaberg Wedding Photographer}

Susan Wall — Sat, 05 Jun 2010 22:29:27 +0000

This week I got to see Sex in the City I and then II. Oh it was like being in fashion/shopping/woman heaven!! I don’t like shopping much though LOL

A great quote in the movie is when Carrie is explaining to her fiancee why the wedding guests numbers had blown out “it’s the dress”. Well Kelly yesterday didn’t let her dress dictate the wedding, but my Lord it could have! It was exquisite, and was so well suited to Kelly and her amazing self (in and out).

Kelly and Rian were married at the Anglican Church and supported by a very lovely and spunky crowd. We then went to some brand new locations (thanks to another local photographer for sharing one spot with me just this once as she loves this couple too!). We then finished the shoot at Kelly’s parents farm house where Kelly and Rian now live. It was mind blowing, seriously. When we needed cloud cover we got it, then the sun came out with all it’s glory and gave us an amazing warm sky with great clouds to boot.

Seriously, I dreamt of this wedding all night as I was still on a high!

Kelly and Rian, I wish you all the best with your lives now starting a new chapter. Maybe one day you will feel like you are married, like it is real Enjoy Hawaii, have a drink for me ok?

*this is a long preview, as I loved way too many shots*

New Chapters {Susan Wall – Bundaberg Wedding Photographer}

Susan Wall — Sat, 01 May 2010 11:54:30 +0000

Dion and Teneale have been awaiting this amazing day for some time now (as have I – so exciting to be part of a one in a lifetime day!). And today seemed like the perfect day for their marriage.
The ceremony was unique, and very touching. Little R – their daughter – made a cute entrance and was just adorable through out it all. She didn’t last long after a few snacks, and was later found out to it in her stroller….adorable!!

Dion and Teneale, I wish you a wonderful life together, and I hope this new chapter is as great as the previous ones x

Cinderella Story {Susan Wall – Bundaberg Wedding Photographer}

Susan Wall — Mon, 12 Apr 2010 04:14:59 +0000

Rebecca said she had always wanted a dress to look like Cinderella, and my word this was the dress! It was exquisite, and just so stunning and detailed. Loved it! And then I got to see Rebecca and Jody’s little girl who was just a mini cinderella – and did such a great job as a flowergirl.

Saturday was a bizarre weather day, we had extreme heat, humidity, showers and then rainbows. We were lucky that each time any weather change happened it was to our advantage. We drove when it was showering, to Rebecca’s parents property and I was so happy we made the trek out there. It was just so beautiful, and there we were greeted with the said rainbow.

My job as a photographer (be it portrait or wedding) is to get my clients to see their images and relate to them, so locations are a very important piece of the puzzle for me! As I am sure you will see below Rebecca and Jody made the right choice with their locations:

Maleny Magic! {Susan Wall – Bundaberg Wedding Photographer}

Maleny Manor is an amazing place to get married. It is intimate, peaceful and dreamy! Nicole and Ben chose this location for their beautiful wedding day. And my goodness – what a treat it was to go there and photograph them. The hinterland is just stunning, and to see a gorgeous couple in that hinterland; very much in love – hmmmm I did have a few little tears of excitement and love!

This wedding I photographed together with Stephen Cameron from Hybrid Vision Photography and it was great to work together and share the experience of what really was a standout wedding!

Thank you Ben and Nicole for allowing me to part of your day; I wish you all the very best for now and the future.

The sweetest little bump! {Susan Wall – Bundaberg Maternity Photographer}

Susan Wall — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 08:02:55 +0000

I have photographed quite a number of bumps, and what I love about each and every one of them is that they are all so different!

Today photographing M and M’s bump I realised how cute this little one was! I mean M is 36 weeks, and looks *amazing*!!! It was a great way to kick off the week, and I am really excited to meet their new bundle in a very few, short weeks! All the best guys, see you soon!

1 beautiful girl, 1 amazing (as in mind blowingly amazing) dress and one fashion shoot!! {Susan Wall – Bundaberg Fashion Photographer}

Monday I received a call from Suri Creations asking if I could do a fashion shoot with a very short time frame. Luckily I was going to be going to a fun shoot (something I like to do from time to time for me!) and I had a model and another photographer who were ready to go anyways.

We went to a wonderful, rustic creation with our model (Ryley is also a great emerging photographer), an amazing gown and the designers. It was all systems are go. It was such a fun afternoon and something I would really adore to do again. So if you are a business out there wanting some fashion shots that stand out be sure to give me a call!

This gown was hand made, completely. Suri Creations spin the fleece and then hand crochet the gown together. These are one off gowns, and something that certainly will see a bride stand out from the crowd. From a photographer point of view, they are such a flattering, elegant and unique dress to photograph. Also very practical for some different sort of fashion like shots. Oh how I loved it!!

Anyway, thought I would share a few of the images (and will update you once I know what image makes the magazine):

All In!! {Susan Wall – Bundaberg Family Photographer}

Susan Wall — Tue, 29 Sep 2009 04:04:17 +0000

I am catching up here now

Sunday afternoon was a busy yet fun afternoon. We met at our location and were like a huge conga line coming through the fence of the property.

You know that ad at the moment “from little things big things grow”? Well, here is my take on it:

From these little things (not little in size or meaning but in numbers – 2 people):

There were 3 children. 2 of whom now have their own families:

And all together now:

Isn’t it amazing how we can share our love with others around us? I really do love doing a few generations all at once, the chaos is fun and exciting. Looking forward to seeing you all soon!

The New Beginning {Susan Wall – Bundaberg Wedding Photographer}

Susan Wall — Tue, 29 Sep 2009 00:45:48 +0000

Saturday I got to drive to a town I had never been to (or heard of actually) until I met M and A. They live in a small town nearby where they got married. I loved how the whole town basically was at the wedding (this town was tiny). You could feel the community support and atmosphere.

For their special photographs we drove out to the forestry, where we released some beautiful butterflies with great symbolic meaning. The kids loved it!! I love going to new places, the excitement of a new adventure and new surrounds is really great. This town had real character to it, and some great backdrops. And of course when you are married in a place that is you, the images are all YOU! M was a bit scared when A asked her to go into the cattle yards with a HUGE bull and heifer – I was a tad scared too, but anything for a good photograph!

M and A, thanks for the opportunity to photograph your special day, and for the amazing experience.

So remember – “have camera; will travel!!”.

Smooth sailing – aboard the love boat that is! {Susan Wall – Bundaberg Wedding Photographer}

Saturday was a brilliant day, lovely and warm with a beautiful sunset for this sweet couple. G and N came from Gladstone to meet me and wow was I glad they gave me the privilege of photographing their beautiful wedding.

During the ceremony N’s boss (such a great and helpful guy) saw the company yacht go past, and promptly organised for it to be used in some photographs – wow it was beautiful!!

Hoping you both enjoy that awesome honeymoon, I can’t wait to hear all about it.

Warning – sweetness overload ahead!!! {Susan Wall – Bundaberg Newborn Photographer}

Today it was {finally} time to meet beautiful little C! She was a touch past her “due date” which had her Mummy playing the waiting game and myself bursting to meet and photograph her! C wasn’t wanting to play for the first part of her shoot, but then after some warm, perfect milk there was no turning back. She was an absolute pleasure to photograph today!

Although newborns can be unpredictable and take a while to settle and pose the outcome is absolutely worth it!! C was 8 days – which is in the “prime” time I love of 6-10 days!! N, thank you so very much for being totally open to the poses and for enjoying your morning tea while I “played” with C. Hoping you feel it was really worth it! Can’t wait to meet up again soon!
