Luke & Tamika

Married February 12, 2011

A country wedding with the works...there were many firsts for me with this one.
It was the first time we'd "camped out" at a wedding. On Friday afternoon we took the camper trailer to Harvey Dickson's Country Music Centre in the town of Boyup Brook where the wedding was to take place the next day.

In the morning we drove 60km to Manjimup where everyone was getting ready, then back to Boyup to catch the arrivals. The boys arrived on the back of a ute (another first), the bride arrived on horseback (another), and it was the biggest bridal party I'd ever seen!

Tamika sang her vows (yep, another first for me) and it was Kerry's debut on second camera (I gave her the close-ups and reaction shots - no pressure! No auto focus either, good job Kez!).

Finally, it was the first time I shot a wedding where there were three other camera crews to compete with. This wedding will feature on "Four Weddings", a competition/reality show which will screen later this year on 7 & GWN7.

Good luck Tamika & Luke, we hope you win!
