After meeting Evon at her cousin's graduation some time last year, we kept in touch over email as she lived and worked in Hong Kong. I was delighted when she asked if I could take some pre-wedding shots for her before her big day, as she had studied in Sydney and it was a pretty special place for her. Apparently, it is quite the norm over there to get dressed up in full-gear before the day of the wedding for this purpose. I can actually see how it's quite an attractive proposition as it takes away heaps of time pressure and stress from the day itself.
We had an awesome time soaking in the summer weather that spring is bringing in, Evon and Joey - thanks for flying all the way here and allowing Joel and I the privilege of capturing these moments ahead of your big day!
Here are some of my faves...
Love the composition of the image below, taken by Joel. I'm always on the lookout for how Sydney's icon's can be done a little differently, and I think this one is pretty sweet!
Wooh! What a stunner!
Adore this dress Evon (and the wind was pretty friendly too)!
You guys both looked absolutely stunning. Evon, thanks for sharing the hair and make-up love, and Joey, thanks for not complaining once about being in a suit and bow tie in the heat! Props also to Karen the cousin, and assistant, and driver, and right hand woman who was everything to everybody on the day - you're the best!

i really like this set trish - they're great. And I think i'm convinced that pre-wedding shoot in all the gear would be pretty worth it!
