Top 10 Reasons Why You Need a Wedding Album

Yes, the digital world is awesome. Don’t get us wrong. We love posting photos, sharing them and having them on our devices. But there is something oh-so special about something physical and tangible. Wedding albums are an essential part of the wedding experience and here is why you NEED one:

#1 Illustrates your story from beginning to end

Eventually, your flowers will die, your cake will be eaten, decorations gone and all you have are your beautiful memories. Photos are snippets that tell a gorgeous story, it is my job to illustate this on your wedding day for moments in your album.

#2 Your wedding is a family heirloom

Your album will be passed down through the generations. It is a keepsake. When we think about it, photos really are the most treasured possessions. This is your legacy. Imagine your grandkids looking through it alongside you one day.

#3 Stands the test of time

An album is seen as timeless for a reason. A USB can be lost or go obsolete. CDs – are they even a thing anymore? Now an album, that is here to stay. I use the finest albums which are handcrafted and made in Italy – I only want the best for my clients.

#4 They beauty of being tangible

They are real, tangible and arouse the sense of touch as they rest in your hands.

#5 It is better than DIYing it down the road

Your wedding day is the biggest day of your life. Why not do it professionally. I put in extra time and love into the images that go into the album. So, you can rest assured your album will look the best.

#6 Wedding albums express and convey the real emotion from the day

I have seen it firsthand. When a couple flick through their wedding album, the emotion is on another level. The combination of storytelling and the physical factor really enhance the experience.

#7 Going purely digital means you could risk losing it

Things happen. Computers break and life gets in the way. Having a hardcopy of your wedding day with your absolute best moments will preserve memories the old fashioned way.

#8 Wedding albums are customised and bespoke

All our wedding albums are bespoke and suited to your style and taste. I ensure that the album is reflective of your individual styles and your personality as a couple.

#9 Don’t allow the possibility of regret

Many couples have told me years after their wedding day that they were so glad they invested in a wedding album. With the journey of life, there can be change. Having a solid memory like an album can capture things that are otherwise lost by time. This is where albums are priceless.

#10 It is part of the package with me – so the question is, why NOT!

A Tight Knit Ceremony: Hayley Weds Denny at Swan Shells

In Weddings No Comment

It’s time to chime the wedding bells for our friends, Hayley and Denny.

Not long ago, I told you guys about the dreamy pre-wedding shoot I did for these two lovebugs. If you didn’t check it out, be sure to read about it here: https://www.jasonsoon.com.au/blog/the-field-of-dreams-capturing-hayley-dennys-engagement-shoot/

Anyway, I was fortunate enough to be included on their big day! The romantic wedding was set at Swan Shells in front of the glorious Crown. It was really a beautiful day, picture perfect if you ask me.

Hayley stunned in a wedding gown that she actually made herself – wow! The theme for the wedding was ombre pink, everything was this authentic colour scheme, it made the mood all the more romantic. The couple were joined by their tight knit group of friends and loved ones, it was really special to be a part of the ceremony witnessed by the couple’s inner circle.

The celebration was held at Crown, Denny is a professional Chinese Lion Dance Performer, so the couple ensured they had a performance for the reception – it was a really nice personal touch to the evening.

I personally really loved capturing the slow dance of Hayley and her father. There was something so beautiful about this moment that I don’t feel words can truly describe it.

Overall, what a fun day – can’t wait to see what’s in store for your love journey guys.

A Beautiful Engagement Shoot at Bells Rapids

In Engagements Pre-Weddings No Comment

Getting back to nature with this one.

I am a big fan of Bells Rapids; the rushing water and the quiet stillness of the location is gorgeous and unique. I am so glad that my lovely friends, Kalvin and Sarah felt the same way. The date was set and we soon made our way to the breathtaking location.

Kalvin and Sarah are a young couple and let me tell you now – they are really into each other. Their love is magnetic and it made it so easy to capture romantic candid moments.

This paired with the green, rocky and water landscapes of Bells Rapids was the perfect recipe for an awesome engagement shoot.

A NYE Ceremony & Celebration: Inger Weds Danny

In Media and Publications Weddings No Comment

Wow 2018 already! Another New Year has passed and I can’t help but reminisce about a breathtaking wedding I shot on NYE 2016.

I remember it like it was yesterday, Danny proposed to Inger on NYE 2015 and the wedding was soon set for the following year.

The day began with the bride and groom getting ready, Inger wore a gorgeous Paula & Jo gown I was fortunate to capture some heartfelt moments with Inger and her family.

The ceremony was held in the stunning location of St Mary’s Cathedral, the union was witnessed by loved ones and close friends. I am still in awe of the jaw-dropping interior of this venue, only photos can paint a worthy description.

The reception soon followed; held at the Crown Astral Ballroom, a crazy double decker bridal table was organised to seat a group of 20 for the bridal party.

The ceremony and celebration were amazing; Inger actually won Bride of the Year for True Bride Magazine for May 2017. She will go into the running for the finals. Needless to say her awesome photos helped her score some great points ;p .
