harvey…home of oranges, cows, italians and italian food, wine and insurmountable hospitality…

handsome ray and gorgeous kathy were married in rays home town in true italian style…plenty of laughter, dancing and italian cutlets - man, how i love those cutlets

we met ray at the childhood home of pepe - rays lovable dad.

when ray asked a few family members if anyone would like to lend their hot vintage cars for the day - they all agreed! 

this immaculate falcon was hot car number 1

kathy and the girls were at the welcoming home of rays parents (in the photo from many moons ago)…where she received stunning red roses and a surprise gift from cirque de solei

it was all laughter and jokes and no nerves

but as time crept around the clock face…

we spotted the chillies along the warm side fence, and in true italian style, left with an plastic bag filled to the brim with an assortment of hot chillies to take home to my mum…

thanks pepe! she loved them

ray was so excited to see kathy arrive at the amphitheatre…

the girls and their gowns were stunning…and so was rays sweet little niece…she was also so excited to be arriving as she has thought all along that she is the one marrying ray…

laughter erupted when this little tot was at the top of the stairs she exclaimed in her loudest voice to the silent crowd

“i’m here”

the ceremony was officiated with warmth, humour and smooth dulcet tones by matt cummins

hotness number 3 and 4

the sky turned it on this day…even more spectacular at the top of the harvey weir

this is the pose provided when we asked the “bride” to sassy it up a little…:)

hello hotness…:)

another old harvey stomping ground…”the jungle”…(this is the prime location of choice for truants from high school - not me of course..)

i think ray nailed the blue steel stare

we were racing against the light at this stage…

“this is how you do it…”

such a sweetie

hot car number 4

i was desperate to shoot in an orchard before we lost all light…

as the sky turned dark, we directed all headlights and interior lights and video lights for these last few sexy images…

this is a fave and hot car number 5

oh, mine by the way…he he he

mikes…i know - equally as hot…

mine…boo-yah back at ya babe…

sweet back lit dance at the rec centre…

and a blast from the past for mike with a few members of “who’s who” - hugely popular local 80’s band - catching up to say g’day…

they also provided incredible music all night…dance floor was cranking…

nearly bedtime…

and to finish off - and my favourite favourite part (apart from the cutlets) the italian dancing!

very tempted to put down the camera and link arms and stomp feet…

raymond and kathy - your love story is a fairytale from start to finish…

from a gallant ray saving a distressed kathy by snapping off the remaining heel of a stiletto that wasnt stuck in the boardwalk

to a prince charming and all his fine carriages on your wedding day

to the loving and gloriously happy italian tears, hugs and kisses (mike felt completely humbled by the double kiss on both cheeks pepe!) at your celebration

and to your blessed future days together…

we wish you both more fairytale goodness for many pages to come…

p.s. the panelvan shot roools!
