Kate & Terry’s Story
A Wedding at the Balmoral Public Dining Room Sydney
Kate & Terry’s Wedding at the Balmoral Public Dining Room Sydney
Kate and Terry started the day getting ready at the Manly Pacific Hotel. They then headed to the Public Dining Room at Balmoral for their moving and heartfelt ceremony and then a stunning reception.
The weather forecast for the day was for a big storm, which never materialised. That meant we had the beach and promenade all to ourselves for our portraits, which is great considering how busy it usually is. We could shoot in any direction and really make the most of every angle.
Kate and Terry’s children and friends gave the most moving speeches and then it was time for the couple’s first dance.
Brendan did the photography for our wedding. He sent through our photos a few days ago and we couldn't be more thrilled. Not only are the photos beautiful, but Brendan managed to capture the day moment-by-moment. The photos really tell the story of our day just as we remember it.
Prior to our wedding, Brendan spent lots of time with us online and over the phone working to understand our story, our personalities and what we really wanted in terms of photography for the day. He was patient, really listened and was full of really great advice for the day generally and for ideas for photos.
On the day, Brendan knew key people's names, their relationships to us and their significance in our friend and family groups. He was also like stealth! We really didn't notice Brendan at the special parts like during the ceremony, but he managed to capture some amazing images from so many different angles and parts of the space.
The best part about having Brendan as our photographer was that he was just so fun to spend the day with. He made us relaxed, he understood our comfort levels, but best of all he made us laugh. We are still giggling at some of the moments when Brendan was funny and was able to capture our moods and laughter so well.
Highly recommend. Thank you Brendan- you were flawless.
