Australia – Part 2: Kelly and Trevor in Sydney

While I was visit Sydney, I had the opportunity to photograph Kelly and Trevor’s engagement photos.  They were actually married in New York this past August, but are planning a wedding Down Under in February.  

We met at Mrs Macquarie’s Chair in the Royal Botanical Garden.  It had an amazing view of the Harbour Bridge and the Opera House.

These two were so sweet together, so glad they found each other despite the fact they are from two different continents!

Australia – Part 1: Melbourne, Victoria

I’ve decided that a 4 part blog is the best way to split this up!  Welcome to Part 1! 

I was on a workaction (work + vacation) last week in Australia!  I had a great oppurtunity to travel with my good friend and colleague Brenda Swann.

Brenda was already down under when I flew in to Melbourne on the 14th of April.  Her good friend Jane lives there and she was a great hostess, showing us around the city the first few days!  Below is an awesome alley we passed and I couldn’t help grabbing a few shots of the ladies!

We went to The Esplanade Hotel and I got this cool shot of the chandelier!

The view in St Kilda

These are Beach Boxes in Brighton, just outside the city.  They are little shacks that locals purchase (for a lot of $$) so they can have some place to retreat in the Summer while visiting the beach!  It seems you can also store your boat in them.  You can read a little more about them here. This was probably my favorite thing to shoot, I wish I could have done a session here!

Our last day in Victoria, we drove along the Great Ocean Road (see the rainbow?).  We made some stops to check out the gorgeous view!

Our final stop before heading to Geelong was outside of Lorne, at Erskine Falls.  Jane took this of me and Brenda!

Having a great time!

I am loving Australia!  I am currently in Sydney and have one full day left before we head back to the US.  Here is a quick shot with my point and shoot camera of me with the Opera House.

🙂 Be back Tuesday!  I have 2 awesome shoots to post when I get home!

Going Down Under! (Out of the office notice)

I will be out of the country April 12-21!

I am headed to Australia with my good friend Brenda Swann.  We will be in Melbourne and Sydney and possibly Tasmania, although the last part is still up in the air depending on cost and time restraints! 

I am going to try to get to my email every few days, but please be patient with me, response time will be much slower!

I’ll have plenty of amazing photos to post when I get home!

xoxo,

M
