Pauline and Leigh, 15th November 2008

| Thursday, November 20, 2008

What a magical day! Pauline has to be one of the most beautiful Brides Ive ever had. Not only because she is stunning, but she has the biggest smile, the happiest personality, a heart the size of Australia, AND she is so much fun! I knew from the moment i walked into her home that it was going to be a great day.

Ceremony and Reception - Leigh's Parents home in Busselton
Locations - Wonnerup House

We started at Pauline and Leigh's house which was all abuzz with excitement. Pauline and her ladies (one of which is a future bride of mine....cool!) were up for anything and more than happy to be part of my wacky ideas though out the day.

and a bit of Pool Hall Action :) Just for Leigh... (anyone notice anything about the ball numbers ;) )

The ceremony was beautiful. Leigh and Pauline looked so happy, both just beamed! And lucky Leigh scored 3 kisses!!

Off to Wonnerup House for photos. This place is awesome...and while you do need to book and pay for photo time, it really is worth it.

Pauline said she was after a Old Hollywood style, and i wanted to reflect this with some of the processing, so Ive gone with allot of muted tones, and vignette's. She does the Film Siren so well!
