I was so excited to photograph Emilie and Chris Carr’s wedding at Quamby Estate in Northern Tasmania last Saturday, with the wonderful assistance of my dear sister Bron Matthews. Despite the threat of rain and cold winds, the sun shone at 4pm and the afternoon was a wonderful celebration of young love.
The girls got ready in the beautiful rooms of the Quamby Homestead with Priscilla Hume from Newstead Hair attending to their hair styling and Brianna Schipper doing their makeup. The Bride wore an Anna Campbell dress with a simple bouquet of mauve, yellow and pale pink roses with Gypsophila which the bridesmaids carried and the groom and groomsmen wore on their lapels.
The ‘aisle’ from the Quamby homestead to the stunning tree under which they were married, was decorated with handmade pinwheels by Karen Moir, Emilie’s Mum. Barb Youd (marriage celebrant) was professional and warm as she always is and making the occasion intimate and personal.
The Carnival theme extended to a Mr Whippy van handing out icecreams to the guests and the gardens were filled with outdoor games for them to play.
After family and bridal party photos were taken Emilie and Chris were introduced to their guests as Mr and Mrs Carr and the party started. The BBQ buffet was a real treat as was the dessert buffet with delicacies hand made by family and friends. The Baker Boys provided the music and everyone was up dancing.
Thank you for asking me to capture and share in your special day Emilie and Chris. I wish you both every happiness for your lives together. xx
