Meet Sam & Luke! Sam contacted me a few weeks ago about doing a shoot in celebration of their upcoming 7th wedding anniversary! Of course I was excited! She was after sunset / field shots that I had recently done with Shana (You can see that session here. Well unfortunately for us….. the council had decided to mow our beautiful block of land! 
So off location scouting it was! And boy did we find gold!
It was a gorgeous location, with stunning models and beautiful light! Seriously a photographers dream!
You’ll have to excuse the funny title of the post, not long into the session Luke had asked if they’d be able to book me in for their 50th wedding anniversary! Of course I agreed and we joked about different ways to do the shoot whilst in wheel chairs!
Anyways enough of my rambling, I’m sure Sam & Luke are dying to see their pictures!
See, what did I say? Models, location & light! Perfecto!
About 20 mins into the session I spotted up a stobie pole in the middle of nowhere about 200m up a steep hill…. so off it was we went!
Check out the flare I found up there!
Then back down the hill to the gorgeous… “weeds”
On to some individual shots! Sam was just stunning! Poor Luke. He is too funny and happy to be serious! I told him to do his “blue steel” face, and all we got was smiles and laughter!
I love to watch couples. Either in weddings or engagement shoots and especially anniversary session. I love to see what makes them tick and how they interact. Well in this particular couple Luke just adores Sam. It was so beautiful to watch! At times I felt like I was intruding on a special moment!
Sunset! Oh how I love sunset! Teamed with an of camera flash set up, you can pick up the gorgeous colours of the sky, while still lighting your subjects properly. This following shot actually happened! Yes the sky really was this gorgeous! We were so happy!
Sam & Luke, thank you so much for such a wonderful evening! We giggled, we laughed, we rolled around on the ground in hysterics! You were so willing to go with my crazy whims and it was an absolute delight to work with you!
A huge shout out to all the stinkin flies that thought they should join us! While my doing my “ninja” moves to get rid of them caused many laughs, I’m sure next time I will be fine with out you!
