Savvy Studios - Our Day Off

Last week, Alex and I decided to take a day off and head into the Ekka. I have been to the Ekka with my family every year since I was a little girl and always look forward to this time of year with great excitement. I love the colours and the atmosphere as well as the masses of junk food on offer. Alex and I arrived there early to avoid the crowds which meant we had a chance to take photos without being bumped around.

Here are a few of the shots that we took, 'just for fun'.

Savvy Studios - The Wedding of Miranda & Matt, 16th August 2008.

After having the pre-wedding shoot earlier in the week, Miranda and Matt were both completely at ease in front of the camera on the day of their wedding.

The celebrant was a family friend who has known Miranda since she was a young girl and it made for a delightful and light hearted ceremony. The reception was elegant and stylish with the entertainment provided by the ever popular, 'Tuffy'. The entire event was held at the Royal Pines Resort on the Gold Coast.

Alex and second shooter Matt, took over 1500 photos on the day as there were countless opportunities to be had with many great locations within close proximity. It was also fantastic to have such a happy loving couple willing to step in front of the camera and trust Alex and Matt to capture the magic of their day. These are just a small selection of their images...




















Congratulations to Miranda and Matt.

Savvy Studios Pre-Wedding Shoot - Miranda and Matt

Pre-wedding shoots are a great way to ensure you are relaxed and comfortable in front of the camera when the big day comes around. Miranda and Matt decided to use the opportunity to work with Alex one week out from the wedding. There was lots of laughter and smiles even though there was a little 'camera shyness' at the start.


Wedding photos to come...

Savvy Studios - Jo and Geoff

On Saturday the 2nd of August Alex photographed the wedding of Geoff and Jo Eastgate. It was a relaxed and casual affair with the ceremony held at Mooloolaba Park right on the beach and the reception at Mooloolaba Surf Club. The weather was perfect and the day ran surprisingly smooth (as weddings days rarely go off without a hitch). Alex got in the light hearted spirit of the occassion with a little tree climbing to capture the group photo and the effort was appreciated resulting in a cheer from family and friends.


Geoff and Jo were the picture of a perfectly relaxed and happy couple. Congratulations to them both!
