The Bon Scotts // Melbourne Music Photography

I recently had the pleasure of working with The Bon Scotts.

I would just like to formally thank the sun for all the things it does. Particularly in the golden hour. Yum.

You can hear the band’s awesome new folk rock sounds here, or follow them here.

Thanks to Theresa Harrison for her assistance.

One random portrait, just because the man photographs so damn well…

Vanessa + James // Thailand Destination Wedding by She Takes Pictures He Makes Films

Have Alastair and I mentioned how much we love our jobs?

Vanessa + James were married on picturesque Koh Samui, Thailand. Their family and friends flew in from Australia and the U.K. to share in several days of adventure and relaxation (and cocktails)… we were there as She Takes Pictures He Makes Films to capture their story.

We joined them on a cruise through the Ao Nang National Marine Park – snorkelling and sightseeing around the breathtaking archipelago – before celebrating their beautifully styled and laid-back wedding day at the luxurious beachfront resort The Library.

Thank you Vanessa + James – what an awesome adventure it was. x

Having the perfect photographer to capture our wedding was one of the most important details for us when we were planning our big day. So we were ecstatic when we stumbled across the incredible duo behind She Takes Pictures He Makes Films and they agreed to shoot our wedding.

We ‘dragged’ them over to Thailand with us, and in exchange Lucy and Alastair offered to shoot not just our wedding day but spend the weekend with us. They fit in like a couple of extra guests (but with awesome cameras that they knew how to use) and managed to capture the true magic of a special time with friends and family. Their light hearted professionalism smoothed over a few stresses on the day and helped to relax/tricked some of our more un-photogenic guests(groom & MOB included) into producing not only usable but beautiful imagery.

We couldn’t be happier with the end product not only because the images are spectacular, but looking through Lucy’s photos and watching Alastair’s film (which we have done countless times already) you are completely transported back there to relive the moments over and over. In short, Lucy and Alastair totally smashed our expectations – and I had high expectations! Hire them if you can, you won’t be disappointed – you’ll be blown away. – Vanessa + James
