Susan & Michael had some divine intervention on their wedding day, with the rain thankfully staying away until just after the ceremony.

Roger and I are delighted to have one of our weddings featured in the current edition of Real Weddings Magazine. Natalie and David really did have a lovely wedding - every detail of the day was planned and executed to perfection.
Below is a scan of the feature, but if you're getting married go out and buy the magazine! It's full of ideas and pretty pictures to get you inspired!

Enjoy!

Crystal & Ryan had the good fortune of rain on their wedding day. According to the wealth of knowledge on Google, rain is good luck on the day you tie the knot because a wet knot is harder to untie. It also means that your marriage will be blessed with fertility and good fortune...

It's always so lovely to see a genuinely happy and joyful bride - Rachael didn't stop smiling all day. And we can see where she gets it from...her grandparents, who honeymooned at Caves House over 60 years ago, were just as joyful!

The photos are more than we could have ever dreamed of and you have captured the memories of our day perfectly! We are so excited to see the rest.

Thank you for being part of our special day - you both made it so much fun,

Many thanks and happy new year,

Ceremony & reception - Caves House

Photography - Kirsty and Roger Clark, ENVY Photography

We thought Emma and Rob chose us to shoot their wedding because they liked our style and thought we had talent, or possibly because Rob and Roger both spent time growing up in Invercargill in New Zealand.

But now we know the real reason.

Emma was secretly planning on wearing a green dress and wanted her photographers to match.

Wedding Photographer of the Year - and the winner is...
Perth, Western Australia



Blog Post from Roger:

Normally I don't do the blog...that's left to Kirsty. But last Friday night she received a very special honour, and being the quiet, bashful little thing that she is I thought I'd let you all know about it...

Kirsty was crowned the 2009 Epson WA AIPP Professional Wedding Photographer of the Year at a gala event at the Duxton Hotel in Perth. She was up against WA's best wedding photographers. This is an award that I have yet to win (I've twice been runner-up to the wonderful Ric Syme who, in my view is one of the best wedding photographers this state has ever seen).

Kirsty was also runner up for the coveted John Whitfield-King Award - a perpetual trophy for the "best people Pic". John Whitfield-King is regarded as the most naturally gifted and visually literate photographer of his generation who sadly passed away in 1990 of motor neurone disease at the age of 50.

She was also runner up for the Best Individual Wedding Print Award.

So well done and congratulations to Kirsty!!!

But what does this mean to you, our clients?

You're lucky! You now have the 2007 WA Portrait Photographer of the Year AND the 2009 WA Wedding Photographer of the Year shooting your wedding.

Few studios in Australia can claim two such accomplished and awarded photographers both shooting together at the same wedding.

For years I have reigned on the throne here at ENVY. Now Kirsty is wearing the crown (for now...) I'm wondering though...will she still carry my bags??..surely??..

Congratulations Kirsty - no one has worked harder or deserves this more than you.

Your loving husband,

Roger

WPPI 2009 - More awards for ENVY!

Roger and I are members of Wedding & Portrait Photographers International - which is pretty much an international group of wedding and portrait photographers...der!

WPPI hold three print competitions throughout the year. This year we decided to enter the competition for the first time and we just received the results.

Out of 1100 entries our photos won:

~ 2nd place in the Wedding Photojournalism category (Kirsty)
~ 3rd place in the Wedding Humour category (Kirsty)
~ 1st place in the Illustrative/Editorial category (Roger)
~ 1st, 2nd AND 3rd place in the Landscape/Nature category (Roger)
PLUS
Between us we received 6 Accolades of Excellence for our other entries.

What a buzz...

Here is the link to the winning entries. Below is my third place "Humour" shot. I'm not really sure what's funny about it, but every time I see this photo it makes me smile.

Enjoy!
